WWE Royal Rumble 2018: Predicting the men's final four

#3 Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens

This reunion will be short lived...Fight Forever!

So this is a bit of a cheat, piling the two together. But it's very similar to the situation in 2009 when the final four of the Royal Rumble staredown counted Randy Orton's Legacy against Undertaker, Big Show and Triple H.

Earlier in the night, Owens and Zayn will have come short in a triple threat match for the WWE Championship against AJ Styles. The contest will spring up the first hints of tension between the renewed best friends.

In particular, the loss will hurt because of a mistake made by Owens. The same will come into effect here when while fighting off the other two competitors, Owens will end up eliminating Zayn and going down with him just after.

I'm unsure of what involvement Zayn and Owens might have in the continuing Smackdown power struggle, but the two need to quickly divert from that towards a Wrestlemania clash against one another. The world needs a one #-on-one Zayn and Owens match at the Show of Shows.

Most importantly, it will bring their arcs full circle when a frustrated Zayn will finally be the one to turn on his best friend resulting in a heel-face alignment switch of epic proportions.
