WWE Royal Rumble 2026: Predicting Literally EVERYTHING!
9. Shortest Time In/Quickest Elimination
Last year, Maxxine Dupri got the shortest stint in the women's Rumble. She lasted just 1:20 in total before being chucked out by members of the Pure Fusion Collective (how times change!). On the men's side, Ludwig Kaiser was clowned by going just 6 seconds. He was punted by Penta as everyone laughed at the future El Grande Americano's misfortune.
So, who's about to take the Warlord/Santino Marella role in 2026?
One can see the women's match taking the dubious prize of 'shortest time in' away from the guys this year. Personally, this writer predicts that SmackDown's B-FAB will only last a minute or so in the match before being thrown over the top rope to the floor. WWE appear to have lost interest in pushing her, which is a shame, but her union with Michin has done exactly nothing for either party.
Their latest role was to act as human punching bags for new Women's Champ and bullying heel Jade Cargill. Hey, a gig's a gig, but FAB was reportedly in line for something more after impressing officials whilst working with The Street Profits.
If nothing else, perhaps B-FAB should look over at Dupri and see that things can only get better. Let's be honest, nobody had Maxxine down for a push and Women's Intercontinental Title reign when she was shunted out of contention during last year's Rumble.
Dupri has improved tenfold between the ropes since then, so maybe the same upturn in fortunes will come FAB's way too? First, she'll have to deal with a fairly nondescript berth on one of the biggest PLEs going.
