Predicting the Top 10 Favorites to win the Royal Rumble
The Road to Wrestle Mania kicks off with Royal Rumble which is widely regarded as, one of the most anticipated events in WWE history. The prestigious Royal Rumble match was originated in 1988 and, was created by the legend Pat Patterson. Began as an experimental thought, the idea turned into a massive phenomenon that still continues to capture the attention of millions of WWE fans.
This year, Royal Rumble heads back to the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The most notable thing about the event is that it will hold the First- Ever Woman's Royal Rumble Match. This year's Royal Rumble has created a lot of speculation and, with speculation comes a lot of expectations. The fans expect the event to entertain to the core and, remain unpredictable till the end.
So, here are the Top 10 favorites to walk out of Wells Fargo Center as the winner and book his ticket to the Super Dome.
#10 Randy Orton
Well, when it comes to predicting Royal Rumble winners, Randy Orton is always one of the favorites. 'The Viper' is a two-time Royal Rumble winner and, would definitely bring much-needed star power to the match. Since, it has been rumored that a SmackDown Superstar will win the Royal Rumble match and, go on to headline Wrestle Mania, then it seems likely that on January 28, 2018, 'the Apex Predator' could walk out as the Rumble winner.
There's no denying that, the previous Rumble events have disappointed the WWE Universe & critics as well. Orton won the match last year and, went on to face Bray Wyatt for the WWE Championship at Wrestle Mania 33 in a lackluster forgettable match. The win did not do anything for 'the Viper' and did all harm to Bray Wyatt who could be 'the next big thing'. Well, things have changed. He might not walk out as the winner this year but, he certainly will be booked in a prominent position in the match.
Expect 'The Legend Killer' to RKO everyone who comes in his way and, if the WWE keeps the match unpredictable and thrilling, then it might be possible that Orton walks out as the winner and, goes to Wrestle Mania to face the WWE Champion. A Randy Orton Vs A.J. Styles match could be truly phenomenal.
