WWE Royal Rumble: 2 WWE Superstars who could turn heel and 1 who might turn face at the event
The Royal Rumble, one of the biggest pay-per-views of the year, will be live this Sunday at Phoenix, Arizona. With a chance to main event WrestleMania 35 on the line, every superstar on the roster would like to put their best foot forward on January 27.
Given that the Royal Rumble is just four days away, there is a sense of anticipation and excitement among the WWE fans which is soaring higher and higher with each passing hour. Social media has been buzzing, and there has been a lot of speculations and predictions going all over the Internet regarding Royal Rumble.
While the 30 Men/Women Royal Rumble matches have been the talk of the town for obvious reasons, WWE might have some interesting surprises and shocks up its sleeve. Creative might plan a few swerves to not only shock and surprise fans but to also lay down the breadcrumbs for potential feuds following the epic event.
So, without further ado, we take a look at 2 superstars who could turn heel and one who might turn face at Royal Rumble.
#3 Heel: Sasha Banks
The Boss Sasha Banks earned herself a title shot against Ronda Rousey after defeating Nia Jax two weeks ago on Raw. However, she would be in for a tougher challenge in the form of Ronda Rousey on January 27.
Even though Banks teamed up with Bayley to defeat the duo of Ronda Rousey and Natalya, this week on Raw, The Boss walking out as the Raw Women's champion at Royal Rumble is highly unlikely.
However, WWE might shock the fans by turning Sasha Banks heel on January 27. The Boss could beat the daylights out of Rousey to hand over a win via disqualification to the current Champion. This would also lay down the breadcrumbs for a mini-feud between the two before WrestleMania.
While there are numerous options for this to happen, what will be interesting to see is whether Banks is in for a major push or if she goes back to the tag team division after Rumble.
