11 WrestleMania 42 Card Predictions After WWE Royal Rumble 2026

Months ago, this fan would've had Rhea Ripley down as a possible foe for rising star Stephanie Vaquer at 'Mania, but time has changed that. Now, Rhea is heavily involved in the tag division, and Royal Rumble winner Liv Morgan seems poised to take the fight to 'La Primera' herself.

A match between Vaquer and Liv's Judgment Day stablemate Raquel Rodriguez on Raw should've happened by the time you read this, but it hasn't at time of writing. Triple H may be tempted to spring a surprise title switch there just to keep things interesting and mess with Morgan's 'Mania plans, but 'The Game' shouldn't.

Liv accidentally on purpose costing Raquel the chance to become champ could lead to something worthwhile between them heading into April, and it might actually feed into another title tilt for Rodriguez before her seemingly inevitable babyface turn. Again, if the book was handed to this guy, he wouldn't bother turning Raquel at all.

Morgan cut a clearly emotional figure upon winning the women's Rumble. This is a big moment in her career, 'cause she's been cast as a "bridesmaid" in Rumbles of yesteryear. Looking ahead, Liv has the chance to become the focal point of Raw's female ranks.

Predicted Winner: Or, Raquel will cost her WrestleMania 42 success as revenge, Judgment Day will splinter, Roxanne Perez will be forced to choose a side, and Liv vs. Rodriguez will become a non-title feud. Then, Vaquer can move on to fresh challengers after April's bumper weekender is in the rearview mirror.

No, rear wasn't a nod towards one of her moves. Never mind!
