My predictions for WWE Royal Rumble 2014

The Brotherhood (Cody Rhodes and Goldust) (c)

vs.

The New Age Outlaws ("Road Dogg" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn)

 for the WWE Tag Team Championships

The Royal Rumble kick-off brings us The New Age Outlaws. They came back to help CM Punk against the Shield...twice. But the third time, they turned on him and now plan to strike out once again to become TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD!!! But they have The Brotherhood to take on if they want to do this...

My prediction: The Brotherhood will probably retain.

2014 Royal Rumble Match

Here are the known participants:

Batista
CM Punk (entering at #1)
Alberto Del Rio
Big E Langston
The Miz
R-Truth
Xavier Woods
Kofi Kingston
Cody Rhodes
Goldust
Rey Mysterio
Fandango
Roman Reigns
Seth Rollins
Dean Ambrose
Erick Rowan
Luke Harper
Damien Sandow
Jimmy Uso
Jey Uso
Jack Swagger
Antonio Cesaro
Wade Barrett

My prediction: Really hoping that CM Punk wins this one. Screw the odds.

Randy Orton (c) vs. John Cena

for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship

(pinfall or submission only)

As if the no-DQ match from TLC wasn't enough, there just has to be a rematch since John Cena lost the old World Heavyweight title to Randy Orton the first time around. Now that the title is unified, it's for all the marbles...again...and this time, it's a straightforward regular wrestling match that's pinfall or submission only.

My prediction: Orton will probably retain again.

Big Show vs. Brock Lesnar

Shortly after TLC, Brock Lesnar returned...and Paul Heyman returned with him. With Brock Lesnar absolutely destroying Mark Henry and threatening to absolutely destroy anyone who gets in his way solely with his own presence, Big Show took on Lesnar...and threw him halfway across the ring like a rag doll! Later that week on SmackDown, it was on.

My prediction: Big Show will knock Lesnar out.

Daniel Bryan vs. Bray Wyatt

After betraying The Wyatt Family after a steel cage tag team match, Daniel Bryan reveals he joined the family to hit Bray Wyatt where it matters the most...both physically and mentally. Since Wyatt's cronies are both in the Royal Rumble match, it's just him and Bray in another one-on-one match...one that Daniel Bryan hopes to win...

My prediction: YES! YES! YES! Daniel Bryan all the way!
