Drew McIntyre hasn't been short of challengers since gaining the WWE Championship, and after dethroning Randy Orton, he now has AJ Styles to look forward to at TLC. If he's able to see a way past Styles at the end of the month, then there could well be a Monster of a challenger waiting for him at Royal Rumble.

It has been rumored that the original plan for TLC was for Braun Strowman to challenge Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship, but after The Monster Among Men suffered a knee injury at Survivor Series, that plan was put on the backburner.

Styles will now step in to challenge McIntyre instead, and it's believed that Strowman will return in the coming weeks after his suspension is lifted and become McIntyre's first challenger of 2021.

Royal Rumble already looks as though it could be a stacked card, but it could also be the place where Strowman wins his first WWE Championship.
