WWE Royal Rumble 2014: 7 Superstars Most Likely To Win

7. Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar The last time we saw The Beast, Brock Lesnar, he defeated one of the current top stars in the WWE, CM Punk, at Summerslam. There is no doubt that he is a bona fide main eventer whenever he's working in the WWE, and save for rare exceptions, when Lesnar is on, he is the last match on the card. So he fits the bill as a major player who could main event WrestleMania XXX. But why would Brock Lesnar win the 2014 Royal Rumble? Well, actually, the correct question here is: why not? When Lesnar is in the ring, most of the times it's the most anticipated match of the night and the one that delivers (just see his matches versus John Cena and CM Punk). He's a credible opponent for anyone that stands across the ring from him. He has a perfect mouthpiece in Paul Heyman. He's a proven PPV draw. If a babyface is holding the belt into WrestleMania, Brock Lesnar is a perfect opponent for them, and a great way to set that match up is to have Brock Lesnar dominate the Royal Rumble match and get the win, as he did once in 2003. The only certainty there is in this entire scenario is that if Brock Lesnar's theme plays during that Rumble match, he is winning the entire thing. The fact that he's a part-time wrestler and his limited number of appearances are the factors that make him just the seventh superstar in this list, but his chance of winning is still there.
