10 WWE Royal Rumble 2019 Nightmares That Could Come True

8. Brock Lesnar Squashes Finn Bálor's Demon

Nightmare: OK, so Finn Bálor has already gone on record as saying he won't be turning up in Arizona with his face paints, but that could easily be a swerve to take fans off the scent of some Demon-related madness. If he does show face in make up, we fear Bálor's alter-ego will get a Brock Lesnar-sized whupping that'll ruin the character's mystic.

Chances Of It Coming True: Surely not. WWE are capable of a lot of things, but they surely wouldn't make Finn's last remaining main event threat look like a total wuss during WrestleMania season. Would they? No, no they can't. It'd be tragic if the 'Demon' took a glorified squash match loss on Sunday.

If it happens, Bálor is done as a credible headliner in the company. He'd have to move to SmackDown, or possibly rebuild his career on NXT. This must be a back-and-forth epic that relies on Raw's David vs. Goliath storytelling.
