Obviously, this one depends on what happens during the Royal Rumble match itself. Roman Reigns will enter as #1, meaning he will either last the distance or eventually succumb to the overwhelming odds. If WWE decide to bring back Triple H to win the match, Vince McMahon would be in a gloating mood on Monday Night Raw. Appearing first with his trademark swagger, the boss would stroll down the aisle and gleefully inform fans that Reigns won't be in attendance because he is on the injury list. This could follow a show-ending angle at the Rumble, during which 'The Game' bashes Roman with his patented sledgehammer on his way to winning the WWE World Heavyweight Title. Then, McMahon could announce that Triple H is going to have a WWE Title celebration later that evening. Overbearing heel gloating without babyface vengeance is something WWE don't often do nowadays, but it could be necessary in order to build resentment towards The Authority in time for WrestleMania.
