The first biggest Premium Live Event of WWE, Royal Rumble, will be live on January 27 from Tropicana Field in Florida. There are currently four matches advertised for the show. Royal Rumble has always been known for its surprises and shocking returns. The winners of the decorated 30-Superstar matches will get a championship opportunity at WrestleMania. Let’s discuss all the WWE Royal Rumble 2024 Predictions, Possible Winners, and Surprises.
Women’s Royal Rumble Match
This year, the 30-Women Royal Rumble match is quite unpredictable. The announced participants include Becky Lynch, Nia Jax, Ivy Nile, Bayley, Maxxine Dupri, and Bianca Belair. There are certain valid contenders for the winning spot. Becky Lynch is among the possible winners of Women’s Royal Rumble. Lynch has been out of the world title picture for some time, and she needs to be back in the main event scene. She can challenge Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania.
Other than her, Nia Jax is a major name in this regard. Jax’s work has been praised since her return. She has been presented as the dominant force on TV and even defeated Becky. We got a preview of a Rhea Ripley vs. Nia Jax match on a recent Raw episode. Nia Jax is among the top WWE Royal Rumble 2024 Predictions.
Now, let’s talk about the most rumoured winner. We are talking about Bayley from Judgment Day. Bayley has been very low on SmackDown for the past few months and has often met with losses. It is an overall claim that she needs to be rewarded back. There are reports of Bayley challenging Iyo Sky at the Grandest Stage Of Them All. The story will come full circle with that. She will be our final pick in our WWE Royal Rumble 2024 Predictions.
Winner Prediction: Bayley
Surprise Entrants
Here is a list of possible Surprising Entrants in Women’s Royal Rumble.
• Sasha Banks (Mercedes Mone)
• Naomi (Trinity Fatu)
• Trish Stratus
• Lita
• AJ Lee
• Alexa Bliss
• Liv Morgan
• Jade Cargill
• Michelle McCool
Logan Paul vs. Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens will challenge Logan Paul for the United States Title. It will be the first Title defence for Logan Paul after two months of winning the title. Logan Paul and Owens fought in WWE Performance Center a few days before their official match. KO is a credible opponent, but things will likely go Logan’s way. Paul is expected to have a long title reign until WrestleMania. So, Logan will successfully defend the title. In our WWE Royal Rumble 2024 Predictions, we expect him to use a cheap way to keep Owens down for a three-count.
Winner Prediction: Logan Paul
Men’s Royal Rumble Match
The 30-Men Royal Rumble match will be an exciting contest with much unpredictability. The official participants include Cody, Punk, Gunther, Kofi, Nakamura, Lashley, McIntyre, Otis, Gable, Tozawa, and Priest. There are a lot of superstars going hot these days. Cody Rhodes is the first name who is a possible winner. He is on the road to finish his story at WrestleMania 40, potentially challenging Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. CM Punk is another name. After a decade, the Royal Rumble match will be his first televised match in WWE. He is on a mission to main-event WrestleMania and to do so; he needs to win the Royal Rumble.
You can’t count out the longest reigning IC Champion, Gunther, from the list. He was the Iron Man in last year’s Royal Rumble match, lasting over an hour before being the runner-up. We also saw an altercation between The Ring General and The Visionary, setting up a match for the future. Other than these, Drew McIntyre is a hot name, too. He has been chasing the title for over a year and needs a big win to cement his new heel character. Gunther is among the Possible Winners of Men’s Royal Rumble.
Let’s discuss some face-offs to watch before heading to the winner in our WWE Royal Rumble 2024 Possible Winners and Surprises. Jey Uso has been on Monday Night Raw for the past few months. We can expect a little interaction between Jimmy and Jey to start their much-anticipated feud leading to a WrestleMania showdown. Also, CM Punk’s interaction with his previously known faces will be awesome to watch. These include Cody, McIntyre, The Rock, and John Cena.
Winner Prediction: CM Punk

• The Rock
• John Cena

Roman Reigns vs. Randy Orton vs. AJ Styles vs. LA Knight
It will be the fatal 4-way for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. It is a main event contender if the 30-men Royal Rumble is not in the main event. It is also highly possible that this match will be the opener, with Styles, Orton, and Knight potentially participating in the Royal Rumble match later that night. It is a major match, but Roman Reigns’ run will continue. Expect a lot of action and drama in this match with The Bloodline interference. The Tribal Heir, Solo Sikoa, can play a vital role in this successful title defence by The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns.
Winner Prediction: Roman Reigns
