WWE Rumor Roundup: Misused Superstar to get a new gimmick after return, Former World Champion wants star fired, Edge's return - 22 December 2019

#3 Possible winner of the Women's Royal Rumble match

In yesterday's Rumor Roundup, we discussed who is the most likely winner of the men's Royal Rumble match. Unlike the men's match, it looks like there is still some dispute over who the company wants to see win the Women's Royal Rumble this year.

Sportskeeda's Tom Colohue revealed that there is a strong chance for Shayna Baszler or Sasha Banks to walk away from Royal Rumble with a guaranteed match at WrestleMania 36.

When it comes to Shayna Baszler, she is a new favourite and looking at what's happened in NXT, with Rhea Ripley winning the Championship, she is definitely a very strong contender. Becky Lynch might have to get eyes at the back of her head. She is out of competitors at this point, there is an outside chance that we may see Nia Jax back soon and she may be a contender to take on Becky Lynch, but Shayna seems the most likely at this point. Unless, of course, Asuka wins at the Royal Rumble.

There is still an outside chance that Sasha Banks may win, that would be good for Bayley, that would give Bayley a strong contender because the SmackDown roster is not particularly strong when it comes to the women's side. We can have someone like Io Shirai win the Rumble, shock contender, then take on Bayley, that would be interesting, don't see that happening though. (H/t: Sportskeeda)
