WWE Royal Rumble 2025 Winner Prediction
Kevin Owens has become the WWE’s most favorite character since he snapped at the end of 2024, but Cody Rhodes is going to keep hold of his WWE Championship. This will be due to one of the night’s biggest returns that will have major inference on the men’s Royal Rumble match, and Cody needs to keep the Winged Eagle title to stand against the winner.
From the WWE women’s participants Bianca Belair has spent twelve months in tag team wrestling and is preparing to return to the single’s game. But it is expected that Charlotte Flair will win the Women’s Royal Rumble in 2025 and can make it clear to everyone who the WWE’s real Final Boss is.
As for the men’s Royal Rumble, it is very unpredictable to say anything about the winner of this year. CM Punk defeated Roman Reigns as most of our favorites for the Men’s Royal Rumble match for a very important reason.
Roman Reigns will be the favorite, but he and his Wiseman owe Punk a favor after he connected with them in WarGames. John Cena is ready to come back, but it is expected that his journey to the WWE Championship is unpredictable to begin with a victory in the Royal Rumble of this year.
