I'd be very surprised if Cena wins but he needs a strong showing. It's weird how weak he's been booked over the last 5-6 yrs.

Punk seems the most likely to me but this could go a few ways. I don't see Roman winning, I could see Orton winning.

Tbh Logan Paul winning and facing Cody would be a good business move.

WWE is extremely top heavy right now. If everybody makes it to Mania injury free you'll have Roman, Seth, Punk, Drew, Cody, KO, Gunther, Cena, etc...all in the picture. Kind of crazy. Even the Rock is still floating around.

Nakamura or LeBron Breakker might not even be on Mania. They might have to legit use that "Wrestlemania: Smackdown" branding for real this year.

Disco would get a lot of heat, but the Rumbles in Indy, not Vegas. Manias in Vegas

I still think Jey is the guy but I feel Punk is gonna win. Elimination Chamber is probably Cena's then.

Austin just had one of his knees replaced. Zero chance of him being in Indy, but with him living in Nevada, probably a much better chance of him appearing at Mania in Vegas.

The person who said Punk winning doesn't make sense if Heyman owes him a favor. As a writer, I can't deny this narratively makes a ton of a sense, so I don't think Punk will win.

The only way Punk winning works is if the promise Heyman made to Punk is when Punk crosses paths with Roman that Heyman will be in Punk's corner and not Roman's.

That works for me too tbh because its more in alignment with his character when he plays face/anti-hero.

Punk losing the rumble and then cashing in Heyman's promise is more in alignment with what he would do when he plays more into his heel persona.

One of the reasons this dude is a GOAT is because he can really do any style character wise and it works. So glad he's back man. Been too long.

if they saved Punk/Rollins for WM I would've went with Punk

seems like Cena is winning to set up Cody vs Cena and Roman vs Punk now

Cody already beat him this title reign :gucci:


And there’s no story to be wasting Cody like that.


Now I DON’T want him to win but the only logical wrestler to win the rumble and face a champion he has lost to already is Jey. Losing to Gunther 3 times and finally being able to get over that hump writes itself.
