5 Wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: 11-time World Champion to return at Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar's Royal Rumble opponent

#1 Hope isn't true: Roman Reigns to win the men's Royal Rumble and challenge The Fiend

Will Roman Reigns win the men's Royal Rumble in 2020?

Here we go again. We're just over a month away from the Royal Rumble and once again there are rumors that Roman Reigns is the early favorite to win the men's, Royal Rumble. According to Tom Colohue of Sportskeeda, WWE have penciled Reigns in as the winner of the men's Royal Rumble with him going on to challenge The Fiend for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania.

Here's what Tom Colohue had to say regarding Reigns facing The Fiend at WrestleMania:

“Talking about the Royal Rumble, the most likely winners at the moment remain Roman Reigns on the men’s side.Roman, I don’t think surprises many people, the idea that Roman is the one to take on the Fiend, despite how long the feud with Corbin has been, and I mean, it’s been going for a long time at this point. I do think Roman is best placed to move into that feud (The Fiend) in January. We’ll have to see how that plays out, The Fiend obviously is unlike anything we’ve encountered before. So a lot could happen. Roman seems to be the ideal person though.”

We hope this isn't true, based purely on the fact that Reigns will probably beat The Fiend if the two face each other at WrestleMania and WWE would probably be better off protecting The Fiend for longer, considering that he's one of the most popular Superstars in the company right now.
