Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to flavour country.

3 or so weeks into the new year and your eyes now positively bleed at every new utterance of stock phrases like “2019 is here!” but, regardless, it is, and with it comes the first WWE Big Four PPV™ of the year.

Despite overwhelming recent evidence to the contrary, these landmark events in the wrestling calendar are where fans expect to see the biggest surprises. WrestleMania had a 5 year old winning the tag titles, SummerSlam had Becky’s “heel turn”, and Survivor Series had Brock’s face doing... that thing Brock's face does. Admittedly the last one's not a surprise.

But still as the saying goes "New Year, New WWE" and the upcoming Royal Rumble PPV's cup runneth-over with potential shocks, stuns, and special guests. After all they've got WrestleMania to plan for and, for the first time in a long time, that card is looking distinctly murky at this point of the build up. You know the game by now, with so much to do there is even more to speculate about.
