Give me one reason why Reigns should win. Just one. Bryan's storyline writes itself. Reigns has no real storyline reason to want to face Lesnar other than he wants to be Champion, which is everybody's main purpose. But, unlike most people, Bryan want's to win the title he never lost. But, a 280 pound monster stands in his way, the 1 in 21-1, Brock Lesnar. Also, Bryan is much more over than Reigns, and it way, way more better in every aspect than Reigns. I hope they use this to write the wrong they did last year and give Bryan a RR win and proper title reign.
Ziggler's out, Ambrose never really stood a chance, Rollins has MITB. It's really either Reigns and Bryan and if WWE is stubborn enough and want a terrible main event, Reign could win. If they want a great WM main event, than Bryan/Lesnar is your best bet.

Im a bit worried that the Authority will take Bryan out of the rumble match and Bryan will be forced to cash in his rematch for the title he never lost, leading to Bryan vs Reigns vs Lesnar

No more triple threats, Reigns will be the odd man out, and people will be cheering for Bryan over all three anyway. Bryan/Lesnar has the potential to be a fantastic match and storyline, there no reason to add the under-developed, clearly not ready Roman Reigns to the fold. ave him face Rusev and end his streak, have Bryan beat The Beast and win back the belt his never lost. There, done. It's so easy WWE will be stupid to not do it.

In a major swerve, Cena beats Brock and Rusev wins the Rumble. Bam! Cena vs Rusev at Wrestlemania! Honestly, this is why I'm calling "Someone Else"- if anyone else but Reigns wins, I'm calling it being Cena- simply because it seems like the only way that fans will get back on Reigns's side is through Reigns losing the Rumble. Fans, in this era, WANT underdogs and want people who they feel are being "held back", so the only way to make Reigns work as a star is to make people truly believe he's being held back by the WWE. The fact WWE's done the "loser of the World Title match enters the Rumble" thing a lot recently makes it seem like they're due for a "someone loses the World Title match, enters the Rumble, and wins that" finish, to boot. I don't think the fans want people that they feel be "held back". What they want is for the WWE hype machine to get behind true and undeniable talent rather than shoving them aside for obviously less talented performers. If Daniel Bryan were "shoved down our throats", the fans would accept it because he actually has the talent to back it up. They want wrestlers to be in a spot that their abilities merit. Reigns would be accepted if he were a bit more polished in the ring. They would be okay with his obnoxious push if he were justifying it with amazing in ring ability.

Reigns should win because he's freakin awesome. Bryan should win because he should fight Lesnar. Ziggler should win because he deserves it most. Ambrose should win because he needs a strong win and to get away from Wyatt. Rusev should win because he should be unstoppable. Rollins should win because he should be the top heel in the company once Lesnar is gone.
There's your awesome final 6. I would be happy if any of them win.

I don't see any real reason why Reigns should win. Other than the dirtsheets claiming he's going to win, he has shown no sign of improvement, and has no reason to win other than he's Roman Reigns. Bryan makes the most sense and the storyline writes itself. Not to mention he's the most over and the biggest fan favorite out of the six. Ziggler does have a chance of winning given his recent booking, but, I think with Bryan back his chances go down drastically. There's no clear reason or way that Ambrose could or will win. Would I like it if he was to win, sure. But, with Bryan back and Ambrose's current booking, I don't see it. Rusev is a heel and, unless they want to take the belt off of Lesnar and put it on a face, there's no way Rusev is winning. Rollins has MITB and, just like Rusev, is a heel and will only face a face at WM.

Bryan, Reigns and Ziggler are left when number 30 comes to the ring and eliminates all 3. Who is number 30? Why John Cena of course! Rioting insues. McMahon, who was watching from his limo the whole time tells the limo driver to step on and speeds off into the night laughing his evil laugh while exclaiming "take that Internet!"

Reigns wins, Bryan eliminates Dolph leading to a "from outside the ring" elimination on Bryan and a Ziggler heel turn nobody asked for. Ziggler/Bryan at Mania.
It makes the least sense, therefore it makes the most sense.

What's the thinking on Lesnar right now - is he still going to be around at Mania as champion to put someone over on the biggest stage, or will he be gone back to UFC or wherever by then?
If Lesnar isn't champion at Mania, then it would have to be Cena as champion against the Rumble winner wouldn't it? That could mean Rusev wins, so they can do their 'evil unstoppable foreigner (and the odds) vs. American hero John Cena' story that will in no way possibly suck in 2015, nor in any way ultimately finish off Rusev after Cena is done with him. I can't see another heel to face Cena as champion.
So assuming Lesnar is still champion, I can't see Vince booking anyone other than a big strong guy to slay the monster, and that means Reigns, as has long been predicted. I don't think Vince would book someone as small as Bryan to beat Lesnar after all the times Cena will have failed to stop him, despite a story of a smart smaller and faster technical wrestler having the key to stopping the brute force of the monster being the compelling choice. Same problem with Ziggler. Ambrose could maybe give them a different angle, but ultimately I think Vince will look to the big strong face regardless of his short-comings.
The other option would be Cena himself. They've booked Cena-Lesnar so often now that it makes little sense to go there again, but then Rock-Cena 2 wasn't needed either but that was considered the best draw, so maybe they'll have the Authority screw Cena against Lesnar, but somehow Cena enters the Rumble and wins it to face Lesnar yet again at Mania and finally beat him? Then afterwards they can spend years talking about the epic rivalry of Cena-Lesnar that ended at WrestleMania.

He beats Brock for the title, enters the Royal Rumble and wins it by eliminating Ambrose, Reigns and Bryan at the same time. Rollins runs in and cashes in on the tired Cena, but Cena beats him quickly and easily. We are then blessed with the Most Anticipated WWE Championship Main Event In Wrestlemania History, a Once In A Lifetime, Never Before Never Again Spectacle of Sports Entertainment: John Cena vs John Cena

Honestly, there hasn't been a good Royal Rumble winner since 2009, so Roman Reigns. You are forgetting our Perro overlord in 2011. Many happy times were had. Many people hated Del Rio as the 2011 Rumble winner and said that giving ADR the win was a bad idea and it was too quick too fast and that's what hurt him. I strongly disagree. Losing in the opening match at WrestleMania to Edge and then to Christian a month later is what hurt his initial heel run. He was still over as a heel after the Rumble. Bryan should win but will he, I don't know. I wouldn't mind Dean winning because an Ambrose/Lesnar match would be insane.

If he's not in the match, it's going to get real life, bad heat. If he's in the match, and doesn't win, it's going to get real life, bad heat. Bryan wins. This, except I don't think Bryan wins... I expect some real real bad heat.

Also his continued Destiny schtick without changing after losing the title didn't help him any either...
