8 WWE Royal Rumble 2016 Surprises That Could Happen
2. Bray Wyatt Wins The WWE World Heavyweight Championship
The Wyatt Family has been booked inconsistently for two years now, being thrown into feuds with top stars but never given the signature win that firmly entrenches them at the top of the card. That could forever change Sunday night should Bray Wyatt win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the Royal Rumble match. With all of the talk surrounding Triple H and Roman Reigns' planned WrestleMania showdown, Wyatt winning the title would be a major surprise, if for no reason other than the fact that he was not even a legitimate contender to do so before Monday's beatdown of Brock Lesnar. A win for the Reaper of Souls would reignite interest in the enigmatic star, all the while setting up a fresh new match for 'Mania season, especially if the events of Raw are intended to build anticipation for Wyatt vs. Lesnar.
