WWE Royal Rumble 2026: Predicting Literally EVERYTHING!

7. Iron Man

WWE Raw Bron Breakker Paul Heyman

There's only one choice for this 'Iron Man' position in 2026, and it's The Vision's attack dog Bron Breakker. He's an athletic freak (fittingly, given his family ties) who is clearly on the warpath towards World Titles in this company sooner rather than later. The wonderful thing? Bron can look like a real contender without winning the match.

All he'd need to do is enter fairly early then sweat, sweat, sweat his way through an epic session of power moves, spears and intensity. If anyone would relish that sort of role in the Rumble, it'd be Breakker. Besides, pretty much all of his Vision stablemates will be involved in the match too, so there's plenty of room for padding and rest periods later on once Bron gets tired.

His 22 minute shift in the 2025 match included 3 eliminations. He got rid of Otis (alongside iShowSpeed), Carmelo Hayes and Santos Escobar. Not to spoil too much that's upcoming, but Breakker might well beat that record handily in 2026. Ahem.

Watching him do that whilst going a hellish amount of time in the Rumble would bolster his position on the card. A match vs. CM Punk headlined Raw earlier in the month, and Breakker impressed yet again. Just imagine the amount of bragging Paul Heyman could do if one of his most promising clients went over an hour in this 30-man brawl - Heyman could cut promos in his sleep about that.

An impressive showing stacked with eliminations, guts and borderline glory could be huge for Bron.
