10 Last-Minute WWE Greatest Royal Rumble Predictions You Need To Know

9. Bludgeoned Brothers

The recent SmackDown Live! conflicts between The Usos and The Bludgeon Brothers have teased far superior clashes than the time-saving Triple Threat that took place on the bloated WrestleMania undercard. Unfortunately, a recent new ingredient in the angle for the former Champions will be forcibly absent from the show.

Naomi's rescue of Jimmy and Jey initially saved further beatings being inflicted upon her husband and brother-in-law, and her entrance music distraction even allowed for a singles victory against the dominant new champions on the go-home edition of SmackDown Live! Unfortunately for the challengers, her real life inability even to work the show from ringside thanks to the female employee embargo is of equal consternation in kayfabe.

Without her, The Usos will likely take another pasting, though the four may be keen to try and steal the show to make up for the 'Mania malaise. Battles in past lives as Wyatts and paint-players respectively suggests that the storyline and legitimate brother duos are more than capable of it.
