It might still be 4 months away at the time of posting but who do you think are likely candidates to win the next Royal Rumbles.
As someone who doesn't watch full time I don't really know who is and isn't being pushed atm or where most people are on the card right now so my guesses could be well off.
For the Mens, surely Cody Rhodes has to be a top candidate for this one, I know he is out of action atm with that nasty looking injury but hopefully he will be back by then.. Outside of that I guess guys like Kevin Owens and Riddle could be dark horse candidates, Whilst I'm not a fan of previous winners winning it again, I guess if he isn't holding a title at the time then Drew McIntyre might be a possibility or as much as I would prefer they didn't, Randy Orton just to say "Someone has finally equalled Steve Austins 3 Rumble wins."
As far as the Womens Rumble go's, I really don't know who is and isn't being pushed there right now, I'm just gonna make a wild guess and say that Becky Lynch could become the first 2 time Womens Rumble winner, but I really don't know.
I know a lot can change in 4 months but do you see pointing at the Wrestlemania sign next January?.

Women's I'm guessing Raquel, men's I think it entirely depends on if Cody's good to go and if the Rock's schedule is free. If neither of them I have zero idea but could easily see them both missing it.

Cody and Becky are the most obvious. The women's doesn't necessarily have to go that way because they have two belts. I suppose the Rock could win it if he is taking on Roman at Mania and they don't take at least one belt off him.

Cody and … when in doubt, go Charlotte!

If they are still planning on doing Becky/Ronda at Wrestlemania, and the rumors of the draft not being held until after Mania are true, then Becky is pretty much a lock to win the Rumble.
Otherwise it's probably going to be Rhea or Raquel this year. God I really hope its not Raquel though, she has no upsides at all. And to be honest, Rhea doesn't need it either, but at least she wouldn't be as bad as Raquel. I would give it to a new woman this year. Iyo, Dakota, or even callup someone like Cora or Roxanne to win it.
Men's stuff, it really doesn't matter if The Rock is returning to fight Roman at Wrestlemania.

Cody seems a safe bet for men’s. Women’s is harder to call, but Rhea’s definitely a possibility after being runner-up in 2021 and a late elimination this year.

Rollins & Raquel are my picks. Cody can get back at Seth when he's ready to go.

Cody is a lock if he's ready by January but the women's is more difficult to predict.
Maybe Sasha if she returns. HHH loves her and Bayley so I can see Bayley being the one to beat Bianca then finally doing Sasha/Bayley at Wrestlemania.
They can get to Becky/Ronda with a chamber or other type of number one contender match. It's too early for the women's Rumble to have a repeat winner.
Rhea has been booked very strong since joining JD but I'm picturing the champions come Wrestlemania season being heel Ronda and Bayley and they're not going to do heel v heel.
I think Bianca trying to beat all of the Horsewomen at consecutive Wrestlemanias is a good story that's landed on their lap so Bianca/Charlotte makes a lot of sense. I'd prefer that be a marquee non-title match though.
So yeah, I'll go with Sasha partly as a make-good since she was apparently supposed to win last year before they switched to Ronda.

Want to win the men's - Tony D'Angelo Will win - Cody (which I'm good with)
Want to win the woman's - GiGi Will will - Charlotte
