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

2. Game Over

John Cena Triple H
WWE

Triple H was due a loss or two after setting up several years' worth of programmes in a sickeningly self-indulgent Survivor Series display last November. He escaped a broken arm in a spectacular WrestleMania showpiece with Ronda Rousey, but will havee his attitude adjusted in pedestrian fashion against brand new bachelor boy John Cena.

Devoid of stakes save for the spectacle of the Saudi crowd seeing their entrances in the flesh, 'The Game' and 'The Champ' can still electrify even if their match doesn't threaten to entertain in the diverse and differing ways both their efforts did on the 'Show Of Shows'.

A throwback to late-00s CenaWinsLOL formula instead of Triple H's own early decade dominance, the match won't get out of first gear, but on a card so huge is any fan even likely to care?
