WWE Royal Rumble 2018 Results Predictions

1. They Wouldn't Do It Again...

There's a lot about modern-day WWE which suggests the creative team dwells beneath bridges and demands tolls from passing billy goats. Club-wielding trolls that they are, surely, surely, Vince and co. wouldn't have the sheer temerity to end the night in Philly with Roman Reigns once again standing alone in the ring?

Well, actually... Hey, maybe he's just the best at wrestling?

Lord help the Samoan superstar should be put in that compromising position again - it's doubtful The Rock will be on hand to share his heckling this time. Poor lad.

Popular consensus (read: one esteemed wrestling journalist) has it that WWE are planning an Elimination Chamber route for Reigns, which means he'll be eliminated by Braun Strowman, and that a SmackDown superstar will outlast 29 of his colleagues.

Some are hoping for Shinsuke Nakamura. Others are being drawn into the Dolph Ziggler deception. Baron Corbin is an acutely depressing choice, so seems a good one. Personally, I'd love it to be Chris Jericho, with WrestleMania's main-event emanating from a boat, but let's go with the King of Strong Style. It's what everybody wants, and if we wish just hard enough...

Prediction: Shinsuke Nakamura wins it with a kick.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
