2016 Rumble

Sup Scott,

It was pretty obvious that Reigns was going to win the Royal Rumble this year, even as early as SummerSlam in 2014. So my question is who are the early on favorites for next year? I’m thinking a veteran ( cough Lesnar ) will win just so they can sell out At&T Stadium with him being booked for the main event in advance.

​The person booked to win the Rumble will not make a lick of difference to the attendance at Wrestlemania. It’ll be entirely dependent on how many part-timers they can coax out of retirement and how hot the product in general is. I still think it’s gonna be Reigns who wins again, although Brock is a possibility. Given that it’s been a few years since the Rumble winner has actually won the title at Wrestlemania, however, they might wanna do that this year as a change of pace. ​
