Prophecies of Eddie Rocks

Royal Rumble 2019


Men's Royal Rumble Match

Prediction:Seth Rollins
Prophecy:All signs seem to be pointing to Lesnar vs Rollins at Wrestlemania. Rollins doesn't need to win the Rumble to set up this match but I don't see any obvious candidates to win and face Daniel Bryan or AJ Styles.
Result:Seth Rollins wins

Women's Royal Rumble Match

Prediction:Alexa Bliss
Prophecy:It's pretty clear that the Raw Woman's title match will be some combination of Ronda, Charlotte and Becky. However, who will be in the Smackdown title match is less clear. Alexa is one of the WWE's golden girls and she is usually in the title picture at Mania and it's also her return. I see her winning the Rumble and choosing to challenge the Smackdown champion rather than face Ronda who injured her in the first place. They'll find some other loop hole to get Ronda vs Becky vs Charlotte.
Result:A Last Minute Entry (Becky Lynch) wins

Daniel Bryan vs. A.J. Styles

WWE Championship

Prediction:Daniel Bryan
Prophecy:I don't see Styles regaining the title so soon after holding it for 365 days +
Result:Daniel Bryan wins
1 Point Awarded

Brock Lesnar vs. Finn Balor

WWE Universal Championship

Prediction:Brock Lesnar
Prophecy:Good for Finn, he finally gets the match with Lesnar that he's waited nearly 3 years for. I assume the reason this match was changed is because Lesnar is staying till Mania and Bruan taking another loss would kill him.
Result:Brock Lesnar wins
1 Point Awarded

Buddy Murphy vs. Akira Tozawa vs. Kalisto vs. Hideo Itami

Fatal 4-Way for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship

Prediction:Buddy Murphy
Result:Buddy Murphy wins
1 Point Awarded

Asuka vs. Becky Lynch

WWE SmackDown Women's Championship

Prediction:Becky Lynch
Prophecy:I don't think Becky will win the Rumble. To avoid any potential backlash they'll have Becky win the title here before the Rumble even starts.
Result:Asuka wins
0 Points Awarded

Ronda Rousey vs. Sasha Banks

WWE Raw Women's Championship

Prediction:Ronda Rousey
Prophecy:A much more interesting matchup than Ronda vs Nia but it's very unlikely Ronda loses any matches before Mania.
This is my lock.
Result:Ronda Rousey wins
1 Point Awarded (+1 bonus point)

The Bar vs. Shane & Miz

WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship

Prediction:Shane & Miz
Prophecy:I feel bad for the tag team division when they get hijacked by a non team but in this case, the Smackdown tag team division is very stale so this should make things more interesting
Result:Shane & Miz win
1 Point Awarded

Rusev vs. Shinsuke Nakamura

WWE United States Championship

Prediction:Rusev
Prophecy:They've gotta give Rusev a chance to show he can really get over as a face.
Result:Shinsuke Nakamura wins
