Or, or, or, we could see the re-arrival of Vince McMahon's 'Ch...Ch...Ch...Chosen One' from a decade ago.

Drew McIntyre is a firm favourite amongst fans to win the men's Rumble. The Scottish powerhouse is a Vinnie Mac wet dream, and he's poised to take the throne and win that Universal Title at some point in 2019. Maybe, just maybe, it'll be in Phoenix this Sunday. Wouldn't that be tasty?

There has to be a reason for McMahon's verbal burial of Finn Bálor's chances against Lesnar on Raw. Sure, it could be WWE showing their true feelings about the Irishman, or it could be their way of lining up a last-minute Triple Threat that includes McIntyre. If Finn can't beat Brock one-on-one, then maybe Drew should just beat the both of them.

That sounds like some Mr. McMahon skewed logic to us, and it's one to keep an eye on. WWE may swerve again on another scheduled match for the Rumble and put McIntyre in there to spice it up. If they do, expect him to win the title.
