WWE Rumor Roundup: 3 exciting returns at Royal Rumble, 6 RAW Superstars to get a massive push and more – 23 January 2019

No plans for Bray Wyatt to drop the title any time soon

Sportskeeda's Tom Colohue has revealed that The Fiend Bray Wyatt will not be dropping the title any time soon. Daniel Bryan faces the WWE Universal Champion at Royal Rumble this month and got the upper hand last week when he attacked The Fiend from behind on SmackDown.

However, Colohue reveals that there are no plans for Bryan to become the champion at the pay-per-view. He said on Dropkick DiSKussions:

No, unfortunately, I do not, and in many ways, fortunately, I do not. Everything I’m hearing is that Bray Wyatt is planned to have a long title reign. Now, he’s had it since October, so it will be fairly long if he goes till WrestleMania, but he will be cutting short at the Royal Rumble and if he loses now, what on earth are they going to do with him in the next couple of months? The second that the Fiend loses, all the momentum is gone, you can at least save it till WrestleMania.

Rumors suggest that the plan is to keep the title on Wyatt until WrestleMania at least.
