9 Surprises That Could Happen At WWE Royal Rumble 2019

8. Miz Turns On Shane

Let's face it, for all the exciting fantasy booking angles we all gave The Miz in 2018 (yes you did) there's only one possible opponent for him now at WrestleMania and that, my friends, is Shane O'Mac.

Despite not technically even being a wrestler, the man's Mania record is absolutely astounding. Last year he got to tag with Bryan on his in-ring return, the year before he got 20 minutes with AJ Styles, and the year before that he got 30 minutes with The Undertaker inside Hell in a Cell. Can anyone else on the roster (besides Roman) boast such consistently strong placement on the card for the show of shows? Even Brock had to do that weird street fight with Ambrose.

I might be pushing the boundaries of the word 'shock' here but a) it's certainly going to be billed that way if it happens and b) it's my f***ing list isn't it? The Best Team In The Entire World Yeah failing to capture the SmackDown Tag Team titles, after squashing a string of jobbers, could be the spark that lights the fuse that sets the fire that starts the fireworks on one of the most unlikely 'Mania feuds of the last few years.

All this, because of Crown Jewel.
