WWE Royal Rumble 2020: 8 last-minute predictions for the PPV - NXT star wins the Rumble, The Fiend's next challenger

#1 30-man Royal Rumble Match

This could be one of the most interesting Rumble matches in recent memory

In contrast to the women's match, WWE has done a pretty good job in promoting the 30-man Royal Rumble match this year. We all know that Brock Lesnar will be entering the match at number 1, despite being the WWE Champion.

He could go on a massive tear and come close to breaking the all-time eliminations record in a single Rumble match. But a win is not very likely for Lesnar. The Beast will likely get eliminated by a future opponent, either for WrestleMania or the rumored Saudi Arabia show.

The field itself is almost complete, with a handful of potential winners. There is room, however, for three names to make a surprise appearance. NXT stars like Matt Riddle and Keith Lee are likely, as is Cain Velasquez. Then there are the never-ending rumors of Edge making a shocking return to the ring.

Whether these surprises take place or not, there are two prime candidates to win the whole thing. One of them will have already wrestled earlier in the night, Roman Reigns. Him winning the Rumble could cause a lot of backlash and undo the goodwill that Reigns has built for himself over the past year.

Nevertheless, he remains a favourite along with Drew McIntyre. WWE seems like they are finally going all-in with the Scottish Terminator. He has gradually become an over babyface and will continue to prosper in the role. McIntyre would be a popular winner and that is the key here. The way he has been built, it is seemingly pretty likely that Drew McIntyre will win the 2020 men's Royal Rumble match

Prediction: Drew McIntyre wins the Rumble, with Roman Reigns being a close second
