2. War of the Factions
If Roman Reigns fail to win the Universal title, he might very well make the rumored appearance in the rumble match. That would once again put all three members of the SHIELD under the same roof. With a little luck, all three of them could be in the match at the same time. WWE has been generous with mini Shield reunions lately. One could expect a spot during this year as well.
However, Shield is far from the only faction to potentially be in the match. The New Day has already announced their entry. Bray Wyatt and company could eventually announce their entry as well. The last time Shield and Wyatt Family came face to face, the arena erupted as the crowd went into a frenzy. It would be hard to pass on another moment of similar nature.

A face-off between Shield and New Day or Wyatt Family and New Day could be easily captivating as well. Factions are always nostalgic and generate a reaction from the crowd. Remember the crowd going nuts when Shield put Styles through a table? Being reunited with his brother would eventually help Reigns to generate a positive reaction from the crowd. Expect sparks to fly all over the place if Shield indeed reunites for a brief moment. Expect earth shattering cheers if they come across the Wyatt Family in the process.
