5 WWE Superstars Who Could Win Royal Rumble 2022

The Royal Rumble 2022 pay-per-view is a month and a half away, but the excitement levels for the show are at the next level. Fans have been waiting for the WWE Royal Rumble 2022 show because the previous edition of the event happened inside WWE Thunderdome in the presence of virtual fans only.

The loud reactions from the fans and the unexpected surprise faces are an important part of the Royal Rumble match. Fans will be attended to the Royal Rumble 2022 show live at The Dome in St. Louis. The creative team of WWE is currently focusing on the Day 1 pay-per-view event, which is scheduled to take place on January 1, 2022. WWE Royal Rumble 2022 will happen on January 29, 2022, and here are the five men who could win the men’s 30-man Royal Rumble 2022 match.

1. Brock Lesnar could win Royal Rumble 2022

The Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar, is the ultimate favorite to win the WWE Royal Rumble match next year. The reason behind that is WWE planned to have a match between Roman Reigns and Jeff Hardy for the Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble show or the PPV special in Saudi Arabia. However, Jeff Hardy has now been released.

These plans have clearly spoilt the result of the WWE Day 1 match between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar. According to reports, Brock vs Roman is the plan for the main event of WrestleMania 38. Also, rumors have surfaced claiming that the upcoming match at WWE Day 1 is a part of the series of the Brock vs Roman matches. So, if Roman retains at Day 1, then WWE could set up their WrestleMania bout by booking Brock Lesnar to win the Royal Rumble match.

2. The Rock could win Royal Rumble 2022

Fans should note that before Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns, the main event for WrestleMania 38 was expected to be Roman Reigns vs The Rock. The chances of The Rock’s return are low, but he could still return to the #30 position in the Royal Rumble.

The Rock could then win the match and go to Dallas to face off against The Tribal Chief in a first-ever meeting.

3. Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre vs. The Authority on SmackDown seems to be a growing storyline. Drew won the last Royal Rumble match that happened in front of live fans. However, he did not get his WrestleMania match in front of the fans because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

McIntyre could win the Royal Rumble 2022 and challenge either the WWE Champion or the Universal Champion at the Grandest Stage of ‘Em All.

4. Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe vs. Roman Reigns is a dream rivalry. The Samoan Submission Machine is currently out with an injury. He had won the NXT Championship but had to relinquish it because of an injury. Joe could be back at the Royal Rumble and win the 30-man match to set up a dream match with Roman.

They have a lot of history between themselves, and fans will be invested in the main event storyline for WrestleMania 38.

5. Roman Reigns could win Royal Rumble 2022

This entry does not make much sense now, but as mentioned ahead, the plan for WrestleMania 38 main event is Brock vs. Roman. They are set to battle on Day 1. If WWE changes the result at the last moment, they can take this route to set up the main event.

There could also be a potential double turn because WWE always wanted Roman as a face. It will be exciting to see what happens on January 29.
