As per rumors, Daniel Bryan was the one penciled in to challenge Roman Reigns at Royal Rumble 2021 for the Universal Championship. However, Bryan announced his entry into the Royal Rumble match on SmackDown which makes it unlikely for him to challenge for the Universal title.

As seen at WWE TLC 2020 and the SmackDown after that, Kevin Owens has come short of winning the Universal title from Roman Reigns. However, on both occasions, Owens has lost due to outside interference from Jey Uso. It is likely that the company continues this feud all the way to Royal Rumble 2021, but can KO overcome The Tribal Chief or will he fall victim and get outnumbered once again?

Prediction: Roman Reigns retains the Universal Championship

The Hurt Business has been on a dominating run on WWE RAW recently and The Chief Hurt Officer of the faction and the United States Champion Bobby Lashley has been leading from the front. As per reports, the plans for Royal Rumble 2021 include Lashley defending his title against Riddle.

Reports have also suggested that Vince McMahon likes Riddle to an extent and considers him to be funny. However, does he like him enough to put the United States title on him? From the looks of it, we might also see Jeff Hardy get involved in the mix.

Prediction: Bobby Lashley retains the US Championship
