10 CRAZY Last-Minute Picks To Win WWE Royal Rumble 2022

10. Shelton Benjamin

Realistically speaking, if WWE was going to do something with Shelton Benjamin, they'd have done it by now. It's a shame the way they've mishandled two decades of the man's life, but those are the risks when you get involved with this company.

Should WWE suddenly decide to reward a loyal and immensely talented worker, though, he's somebody who could put on a completely different programme with Brock Lesnar, should the Beast still hold the world title going into WrestleMania. The usual build for a Brock match centres around how little regard he has for his opponent, and how easily he intends on turning them over.

Lesnar vs. Benjamin would allow for something fresh. The two came up together, working as a team in OVW. Benjamin is one of the few wrestlers who the famously prickly Lesnar is known to actually like.

Obviously, the money match is Lesnar/Reigns, but if WWE wanted to see how far they could push the quasi-face Lesnar, a match to determine which amateur powerhouse was truly the best could be a technical masterclass and downright charming.
