#2 John Cena
John Cena’s last appearance in a Royal Rumble match was in 2013 when the Face That Runs The Place eliminated four superstars to earn the right to challenge for the WWE Championship. Five years later and the similar circumstances suggest that he’s a lock to win the Rumble.
The 16-Time WWE Champion has been rumoured to win the Royal Rumble match since SummerSlam when many fans thought we were headed towards another Patriot vs. Heel Foreigner match with Jinder Mahal as the champion. Thankfully, that isn’t on the horizon but there’s still a strong chance that Cena will get his next world championship opportunity by winning the Royal Rumble.
Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.
Also, Cena won his first Royal Rumble in 2008, so its plausible that the company would want him to win the match 10 years later and tie the record of Stone Cold Steve Austin by winning three Royal Rumble matches.
Cena hasn’t been a factor in the World Championship picture for WrestleMania since his victory against The Rock at WrestleMania 29 and history could repeat itself if Cena wins the Royal Rumble match and beats AJ Styles at WrestleMania to break Ric Flair’s record and become a 17-time World Champion.
