WWE Royal Rumble 2017: Predicting the Full Match Card

How could the WWE Royal Rumble match card look by the end of January?

On Sunday, January 29, the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view will take place from the Alamodome in San Antonio, TX. This is the annual show that usually sets WWE up for the WrestleMania event, which has the biggest feuds and matches of the year. The 2017 show should be no different, especially with how this is currently building.

As always, there will be the Royal Rumble match. 30 Superstars will compete for a chance at main eventing WrestleMania 33 whether it’s for the WWE or Universal Championship. The company hasn’t noted yet whether the winner of this over-the-top rope bout will get the chance to choose which belt he goes for.

The only Superstars set for the Rumble are Brock Lesnar and Goldberg. This came just days after their Survivor Series match, which saw the former WCW star win in 86 seconds. Who else will join these two along the way?

We also have one title match set with Kevin Owens defending the Universal Championship against Roman Reigns. Given Chris Jericho’s interference in past title matches, he will be suspended above the ring in a shark cage. Will he still make an impact on the only set championship matchup?

The Royal Rumble card is only beginning to be developed, though, and should get more matches added to the show as the weeks go on. What else do we think should join the annual match and Owens vs. Reigns? Here are our full match predictions.
