I think that we can all agree that WWE is doing an exceptional job in building this event. Every week on Smackdown and Raw we see some interesting developments in the storylines.
Last week on RAW we saw a noteworthy change in the Universal Championship match. Finn Balor won a fatal four-way match and was chosen as a replacement for Strowman to face the Beast Incarnate for the Universal title.
Strowman was removed from the match as Vince McMahon (in kayfabe) was not happy with Strowman as he broke his Limousine and raised his voice when he was talking to him.
As of now, 6 championship matches have been announced for the Royal Rumble PPV.
The following championships will be defended at the PPV-
1) Universal Championship
2) WWE Championship
3) Raw Women's Championship
4) SmackDown Women's Championship
5) SmackDown Tag Team Championships
6) Cruiserweight Championship
In this article, I will predict the results of all the championship matches. The predictions are on the basis of the recent booking of the superstars, and the rumours surrounding their futures. So Let's Begin.
#6 Buddy Murphy (c) vs. Akira Tozawa vs. Kalisto vs. Hideo Itami - WWE Cruiserweight Championship
After his victory at WWE's TLC, Buddy Murphy told 205 Live general manager Drake Maverick that he is ready for a challenge, so he'll get what he asked for, at the Royal Rumble.
Murphy will defend his title against three of the best Superstars of 205 Live. He will face Kalisto, Akira Tozawa and Hideo Itami in a fatal four-way match. All the men involved in this match are astounding in-ring performers and they will definitely create a spectacular match.
The three challengers are amazing performers but it doesn't look like any of them is walking out of the Royal Rumble as the Cruiserweight Champion. So my prediction is that Buddy Murphy will retain the Cruiserweight Championship
Prediction-Buddy Murphy retains the WWE Cruiserweight Championship
