2. Brock Lesnar
As the first of two joint 4/1 favourites, the bookmakers obviously think The Beast could well be the last man standing at the end of the 2016 Royal Rumble. Reasons he should win Given the nature of Lesnars WWE contract its likely hell vanish from our TV screens sometime over the next couple of months. What better way is there then to bring him back than to have him win the Royal Rumble on his return as a surprise entrant? It makes a lot of sense if WWE want a credible winner who will go down well with the fans, something they will presumably want after the disastrous reaction to this years outcome. Reasons he shouldnt win Basically the same reason as Cena. Lesnar doesnt need this win for his WrestleMania bout to be considered a main event level match, so perhaps its a waste to let him win the Rumble. It could go to someone who could benefit from it more.
