Predicting the Top 10 Favorites to win the Royal Rumble

#6 Sami Zayn

Will the Underdog from the Underground finally win the Royal Rumble?

There's no denying that Sami Zayn is a talented performer and fortunately, is getting the respect he deserves between the ropes. 'The Underdog from the Underground' turned heel after helping Kevin Owens beat Shane McMahon at Hell In A Cell. The man has teamed up with his best friend and, is constantly booked in a prominent position on Tuesday Nights. The duo is currently booked to face A.J. Styles, the WWE Champion at the Royal Rumble in a 2 on 1 Handicap Match.

The heel 'turn' has transformed Zayn into a top-tier performer and, he will enter the Royal Rumble for the 3rd time with a chip on his shoulder. However, the rumors are running rampant that the Handicap Match stipulation has been set to create tension between the duo and, could end up with 'the Prizefighter' turning on Sami again.

A possible betrayal by Kevin Owens could set the tone for this rivalry and, cause Zayn to instill a rage within him to get redemption on his best friend. Sami Zayn winning the Royal Rumble makes all the sense if WWE is planning to have Zayn Vs Owens at Wrestle Mania with, Kevin Owens heading to the Super Dome as the WWE Champion. This rivalry definitely needs a Wrestle Mania showdown and, letting Zayn win the Rumble could be monumental for his career and, will solidify his position as a top babyface in the company.
