Royal Rumble Predictions: Part Two
The Return of the Viper.
For the past four months the WWE apex predator, Randy Orton, has been out of action due to both filming and injury. I believe he's most recent appearance was at a live show after Christmas but suffered an injury on the night preventing him from returning to action. On that night Orton went one on one with Kane, initially working as a baby face. The last time we saw him on WWE TV was quite some time back when he was written off with a storyline with Seth Rollins, after Rollins and the rest of the Authority left the viper being taken out of the arena by a stretcher. Over the course of Orton's absence the WWE universe have questions what the future holds for him and where he will be placed on the roster and in the storyline book when he returns to action. If he's live show match is anything to judge by I think it's pretty clear Orton will be returning as a baby face. With the way things ended the last time we saw him on our TV screens it appears the twelve time champion has some unfinished business with the Authority and in particular Mr money in the bank himself, Seth Rollins. I have made many bold predictions as to when Randy will return to action and what will be waiting for him when he does so but after being disappointed so many times I think this is going to be the closes and most accurate. There is not a single doubt in my mind that this Sunday will see the return of the viper. Now, if this wasn't the Royal Rumble pay per view then I would of predicted he would make a surprise return during the WWE World Heavyweight championship match, costing Seth the match and most importantly the championship. However, that's not gonna happen because it makes no sense to do at this particular pay per view. Now, there is no better way for a superstar to make their return to action than at the Royal Rumble match. I almost guarantee that this Sunday Randy Orton will be back in action and he will either be the first entrant or the very last, personally I think it makes more sense to have him in the match as early as possible, that way he gets to show and do more and make up for lost time. I think either way he will dominate the match and really show us why we have missed him so much. I think it's almost certain, also, that we will see Seth Rollins come into the picture here. Regardless of how the championship match goes, if Orton returns this Sunday, the feud between Seth Rollins and Randy Orton will begin. It's likely Orton will be dominating the Royal Rumble match only to have Seth Rollins interfere and eliminate Randy, preventing him from going on to headline Wrestlemania. This of course will set up their feud for the next thew months leading right up to a Wrestlemania match, witch will probably see Rollins come out the victor and later see him cash in the money in the bank brief case.
Superstars Not To Rule out in having top performance
The Royal Rumble match opens the doors for all the superstars in the locker room. It allows the jobbers and mid carders to have their moment and time to really shine and this year I think we could be in for a little surprise as to who might give us a little shock.
Titus O'Neil
Oh yeah, you read it right, the first name to go into this mini list is Mr T-I-T-U-S himself. Over the past thew months rumours of a Titus push have been surfacing the internet and if we look at what he's been up to these past couple of months I think the sources are right. Competing almost week after week on both Main Event and Superstars, Titus O'Neil has stepped in the ring with former champions like Jack Swagger and dominated the match. Showcasing a new attitude, Titus has been able to show off what he can do in the ring a little more and despite being thirty seven years old I think this could be the perfect timing. Now, we all know Mr O'Neil is not walking out of the Royal Rumble match victorious and go on to headline the biggest pay per view of the year, but there is no reason to believe he will not have an outstanding performance. A huge elimination will put Titus right in the spotlight and force the WWE to give him that extra push. It will show the company have faith and believe in him and have some bigger plans in twenty fifteen. And with Titus' height and weight advantage this type of match up is right up he's street and a solid performance could put him in the picture for winning the Andrea the giant battle memorial this year and have he's Wrestlemania moment.
Bo Dallas
I have spoke about returns at the Royal Rumble on several occasions in this series this week and another man likely to make he's return to the WWE this weekend is Bo Dallas. It's been quite some time since we last saw Bo in action mainly because of an injury he suffered several months back. This Sunday we can expect Bo to make he's return to action. Once again, we all know there is no chance Dallas is winning this Royal Rumble and is going to headline Wrestlemania but one thing we can bank on is a decent performance. Looking back at Bo's history inside a Rumble match it looks pretty good. A thew years ago he competed in an NXT Battle Royal witch allowed the winner to compete in the Royal Rumble match of that year. He then entered that Rumble match and eliminated Bad New's Barrett. He also competed in another NXT Battle Royal and had another good performance. This Sunday may not see the biggest eliminations come from Bo Dallas but we could see something pretty intresting and a more than decent all round performance.
The Bunny
Now, I cannot believe I'm saying this just as much as you cannot believe you are reading this but the next guy I think is going to give us a little surprise is the Bunny. I'm pretty much one hundred per cent certain that they will have the bunny involve and a participant in this year's Royal Rumble match. It's been a while since Adam Rose's Bunny has been on our TV screen and seems the WWE have been building up something to happen and well it looks as if Mr Adam Rose is getting eliminated this Sunday by the Bunny. I would pretty much bet my house on this.
Darren Young
The last superstar I'm going to talk about in this little section is Darren Young. Once again, Young has been out of action for a while now following an injury and the last time we saw him was a couple of weeks ago kicking off RAW with the rest of the roster but he is yet to have a big comeback match. I have mentioned a thew times that Young has hinted a feud with Rusev on twitter and I have said how much I personally would like to see something happen between the two this year. Now, even thought it seems more likely Rusev will kick start a feud with John Cena in the next month or so I honestly think the WWE should put some faith in Darren and give him a strong feud with Rusev and even a shot at the US Championship. If the WWE do have any plans for the two we could see Young eliminate Rusev from the Royal Rumble match kick starting their feud and it would also allow Young to get an insane pop from the crowd.
