WWE Royal Rumble 2016: 10 Last Minute Rumours You Need To Know

5. A Brock Lesnar/Kevin Owens WrestleMania Match Will Be Teased

With WWE's heel side of the roster rather thin, fans have speculated and hoped that Kevin Owens - who burst onto WWE's main roster with a win over John Cena but hasn't made a main event-level impact since - would step up to take on Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 32. That always seemed like a longshot, and after this Monday's Raw - where The Wyatt Family left Lesnar down and out - it seems like WWE has chosen a different direction. Still, there's a chance, and hopefully WWE will rethink their current strategy - after all, for all his talent, presumptive opponent Bray Wyatt has consistently been booked as a guy who loses all of his important matches. Anything can happen in the Rumble itself, and with Lesnar an entered participant, there are 29 other men with whom the company can create a story for him. Owens will be there, and perhaps a war between the two bruisers will begin in the bout. More likely, though, Lesnar's bad blood with Wyatt will continue - or even worse, be shifted to Braun Strowman.
