WWE Rumor Roundup: Terrible news on Randy Orton, long-time tag team to be broken up, Lars Sullivan update - 29th December 2019

#1 Royal Rumble match card updates

Royal Rumble is set to go live on January 26th, 2020 from the Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas and there are just three matches that are confirmed to take place at the moment.

The men's and women's Royal Rumble matches along with a Universal Championship match between The Fiend and Daniel Bryan are currently slated for the show.

Dave Meltzer reported on the Wrestling Observer Radio that Lacey Evans vs. Bayley for the SmackDown Women's Championship will also be on the show. The match was originally scheduled to happen at TLC, however, WWE cancelled the match and intended to have it on the next PPV.

Brock Lesnar is expected to defend his WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble show and he won't be facing Cain Velasquez, as previously speculated.

Becky Lynch vs. Asuka for the RAW Women's Championship and Braun Strowman vs. Shinsuke Nakamura for the Intercontinental Championship are the other two matches that seem like a lock for the Rumble.

Andrade could defend the US title against Humberto Carrillo as well at the show. WWE also seems to be building up to a Rey Mysterio, Kevin Owens and Samoa Joe vs. Seth Rollins and the Authors of Pain six-man tag team match

We should have more updates regarding the card as we enter the new year and we're hoping it lives up to all the expectations.
