One winner gets Roman night one for one belt. The other winner gets Roman night two for the other belt. Easy simple booking right there.

Becky dancing on Lesnar's head is a funny image.

One winner gets Roman night one for one belt. The other winner gets Roman night two for the other belt. Easy simple booking right there. I think your right. but who? I'd go with Rollins and Cody. Seth gets Universal as he technically beat Roman, but has never got a rematch and Cody gets the one he has always wanted the WWE. Also if the actual keep separate roster, Seth and Cody being on different shows would be great too. They shouldn't wrestle 1on1 for atleast another year especially since both a faces now. Just to add I think Rollins is having a great run and has earned being a top face and I'd like to see him run SD for a bit. 6 month reign tops with possible bangers with almost everyone on SD like Bloodline, KO, Imperium, Legado, New Day, Brawling Brutes and yes even Bray. those 2 getting to revenge Vince's shit booking of them would be awesome.

I’m hoping HBK is a surprise entrant in the Rumble. Doesn’t sit right with me his last match is the tag match in Saudi Arabia which bombed. It’s in San Antonio so it’s perfect.
Either that would be nice to see Sean Waltman. CM Punk is the obvious big one or maybe Austin? Logan Paul I could see appearing too.

Predicting The Rock and The Great Muta as two surprise entrants. Maybe even Stone Cold.

Personally I hope WWE can strike a deal with AEW and have Daddy Ass make a rumble appearance.

I think the last WWE trade with a rival company was Ric Flair in 2012 for Christian appearing in TNA for one night only. What would TK want that is of equal value to Daddy Ass in the Rumble?

No chance is he going to be in the Rumble this year.

Does a Pitch Black match mean we won’t be able to see it? Because it would be the best Wyatt match in years if so.

Allegedly there's to be a Rumble qualifier on Smackdown - Ricochet vs Top Dolla.

Country music singer Hardy, whose song "Sold Out" is the official theme of the 2023 Royal Rumble, will perform live at the event. And I think it's safe to say after this past Monday, dude's probably leaving in an ambulance after Solo Sikoa is done with him.

The fact that they're actually doing qualifying matches for the Rumble makes me wonder if we're gonna have a lot of surprise entrants this year...
I'd be cool with some one offs making a surprise entrants in the Rumble although not sure how the crowd would react to a Mutoh or Ibushi appearance...

I feel like since they are still living in the Attitude Era of nostalgia: Steve Blackman Ken Shamrock Shane McMahon Dan Severn X-Pac To name a few to be surprises.
