5 Surprises that can happen at the Greatest Royal Rumble

The possibilities seem endless for the grand show!

The Greatest Royal Rumble event takes place in Jeddah tomorrow featuring a stacked card and the biggest Royal Rumble match of all time with 50 Superstars from past and present.

Every main-roster title except for the women's titles will be defended, since there are no women on the card, will be defended.

Let's take a look at some surprises that can happen tomorrow.


New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

5: Jinder Mahal wins back the United States Championship

Jinder Mahal winning back the US Championship actually isn't as surprising as you might first think. It depends on if WWE wants Jinder to win the US title in the continent he's billed from and on whether WWE wants to bring the US title over to RAW.

Of course, if Mahal does win the US title back, that will definitely mean that the IC title will head to SmackDown. More on that later.

4: More legends return

Jeff Jarrett may not be the only Hall Of Famer returning!

With 50 spots to fill for the Greatest Royal Rumble match, WWE has announced a number of returning legends from the Great Khali to Rey Mysterio. Part-timers like Shane McMahon will also take part in the match.

Could we see a few more legends return to the ring in Jeddah for one night only? Legends like Jeff Jarrett and even Shawn Michaels are definitely a possibility, seeing that Mark Henry is coming out of retirement for this event.

3: Miz wins back the Intercontinental championship

The Miz could tie Chris Jericho's record nine IC title reigns with a win on Friday

The Miz is in an interesting position. He's involved in one of the top feuds on the blue brand right now, even though it has just begun. The feud with Bryan could put Miz in a main-event spot on SmackDown but rumours this week suggested that Miz could win back his IC title in Jeddah.

If the Miz does win it back, it could add an interesting facet to the feud, Bryan trying to win back the IC title which he never lost.

2: Daniel Bryan wins the Greatest Royal Rumble

Bryan could have atleast one 'Royal Rumble' win under his notch at long last

Who will win the Greatest Royal Rumble? That's the biggest question going into tomorrow's show. Could WWE give it to a returning legend or a part-timer? Possibly, but unlikely.

Daniel Bryan is one of WWE's biggest stars and WWE could cement him as a top-tier star (not that he needs it) by booking him to win the biggest Royal Rumble in WWE history.

1: Brock Lesnar retains the Universal Championship

Will The Beast Incarnate continue his reign of dominance?

This could be the biggest shock of the night. Right now everyone expects Roman to leave Jeddah with the Universal title, after winning it in front of a crowd, who at worst won't boo him as vociferously as the one in NOLA.

Could Vince swerve us all again by having Brock win? It's possible but at this point I just want this feud to end.
