5 Biggest Things WWE Could Be Planning For Royal Rumble 2019

In what always is one of the most significant events of the year, WWE will be preparing to kick off the proceedings for WrestleMania 35 with an epic Royal Rumble.

With the company bringing some serious changes in the way they run the show, more opportunities could be thrown around to superstars who don't necessarily get the spotlight.

Considering the fact that the event has always been remembered for delivering some of the most spectacular moments in the company's history, this year's Royal Rumble seems to be no different.

The amount of expectations and pressure could coerce Vince McMahon to make some clinical decisions that might propel the magnitude of the Road to WrestleMania 35.

After delivering some shocking moments in 2018, will WWE start 2019 with a bang? Let's see. Here are the 5 biggest things WWE could be planning for Royal Rumble 2019.

#1 Vince McMahon and Triple H ruin AJ Styles' chances of becoming the WWE Champion

In what was possibly one of the most surprising angles of 2018, Vince McMahon's confrontation with AJ Styles may have serious consequences going into 2019.

The Phenomenal One has proved to be a game changer for the company, with the Boss trying to make him into one of his greatest assets ever to this business.

Since Styles' is set to lock horns with Daniel Bryan at the Royal Rumble for the WWE Championship, ruining his chances at the Royal Rumble could lead to an interesting Road to WrestleMania 35.

While there is no concrete information on where the feud might go, it definitely feels like the fans are intrigued with a mere possibility of the Phenomenal One going one-on-one with Triple H.

If a match with Triple H is on the cards, then a shocking finish to the WWE Championship match could be planned for the Royal Rumble.

#2 Drew Mcintyre shattering the Royal Rumble record of most eliminations in a single match

Regardless of what transpires in the Men's Royal Rumble match, the company will definitely propel Drew McIntyre as one of the most dangerous men in the game.

The Scottish Terminator has announced his entry in the Royal Rumble match and looks set to make a big statement before heading on to the Road to WrestleMania 35.

Considering that Braun Strowman broke Roman Reigns' record of most eliminations in a single Royal Rumble match by tossing a record 13 superstars, McIntyre looks destined to break the glass ceiling by shattering all the previous records.

Judging by how much Vince McMahon believes in him, eliminating half of the roster from the Royal Rumble match would instantly position him as a dominant contender for the Universal Championship.

While he has a legitimate chance of winning the gimmick encounter, shattering all records would be more than enough to solidify himself as the future of this business.

#3 Becky Lynch and Charlotte falling at the exact same to ignite a controversial finish to Women's Royal Rumble Match

There needs to be a way — There needs to be

Judging by all the rumors that have been doing the rounds lately, it definitely seems like WWE could be ending WrestleMania 35, with the women closing the show.

With Becky Lynch Vs. Ronda Rousey Vs. Charlotte rumored for WrestleMania 35, someone has to fight all the odds in the Women's Royal Rumble match and emerge victorious.

Assessing the rivalry that has transpired between Becky Lynch and Charlotte, there's no way Vince McMahon would end their momentum by dropping the ball on either of them.

There's no denying that both the superstars deserve a shot at the Raw Women's Champion. Therefore, booking a controversial finish at the end of the match could make things more interesting and compelling in the women's division.

Both these competitors have been running riot in the women's division and are possibly becoming one of the most significant feuds in the business.

A controversial finish to end the night with both the superstars falling at the exact time could be equally shocking and compelling to move this already engaging feud ahead.

#4 Lars Sullivan's main roster debut in the Men's Royal Rumble match

In what could be a decisive moment for the WWE, debuting Lars Sullivan on the main roster with an introduction at the Royal Rumble could be special.

Judging by how promising he looks, displaying his muscle and strength in the Royal Rumble's match would be a legitimate way to establish him as a force to be reckoned with.

With the company most likely to end the brand extension, a possible storyline with Braun Strowman for WrestleMania 35 could be absolutely thrilling.

While there were plans for Sullivan to be involved in a promising storyline, but the viewership concerns led the creative team to move in a different direction.

Debuting him at the Royal Rumble would make for another interesting debut and may very well play a significant factor in setting the tone for the rest of 2019.

#5 Seth Rollins proves his mettle and wins the Royal Rumble match

There's no denying that Seth Rollins has proved himself to become one of the most talented superstars on the planet and understands the art of professional wrestling better than anyone on the red brand.

However, the Architect has been feuding for mid-card belts since a long, long time, with the fans yearning to see Rollins conquer the odds and win the big one.

With reports suggesting that the company could be finally pushing Rollins' as the face of the company, the Architect has a legitimate chance to win the Royal Rumble match.

Entering the gimmick match as the first entrant and battling his way till the very end could be enough to solidify Seth as one of the most relentless superstars on the planet.

Seth Rollins challenging for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35 makes sense and would be an incredible way to kick things off in 2019.
