Ever since Stephanie McMahon announced that the first-ever all-female Royal Rumble had been given the green light, fans online have been trying to decide whether Ronda Rousey or Asuka would make more sense as the winner.

For the former, there's the fact that it would make for a stunning first night in the company, guaranteed to generate a lot of mainstream buzz ahead of her money-spinning match with Charlotte at WrestleMania.

There's also Asuka's undefeated streak to think about. The company has spent more than a year building up the Empress of Tomorrow as an unstoppable force, and while they could still claim that she is undefeated in singles competition, it seems somehow wrong to waste her first loss on a multi-person match.

But what if neither of them win? There are plenty of other options elsewhere on the roster, from Bayley to Sasha Banks to a returning Becky Lynch, fresh from filming the latest version of The Marine. It's completely possible one of them could claim the spoils.
