10 Last-Minute WWE Royal Rumble 2017 Rumors You Need To Know
4. Neville Wins The Cruiserweight Championship
The evening after Roadblock: End of the Line, former NXT Champion Neville made his return to Raw, attacking Cruiserweight Champion Rich Swann and turning heel for the first time in his WWE career. Neville later explained that he was disgruntled due to the fans' forgetting about him during his absence, and that he considered himself to be the greatest cruiserweight in WWE.
Since then, the Neville-Swann feud has turned into the most-emphasized one in the Cruiserweight Title's short history, with the two men set to face off at the Royal Rumble PPV.
It's hard to tell who will win. On the one hand, the title has lacked stability, with three champions in four months and Swann's reign - currently at 57 days - the longest in the belt's history. That might make him seem like a contender for a win, as would the prospect of a feud with Austin Aries, once the star's orbital bone heals. On the other, Neville is getting his first push in a while, and it seems like that may very well culminate in a title win.
Given that I'm not predicting any other titles to change at the show, I'm going to say Neville's the favorite in this one.
