WWE‘s Royal Rumble event will be taking place this Sunday live on WWE Network. It was recently announced that WWE Champion Brock Lesnar will be entering the Men’s Rumble match first, with his advocate Paul Heyman stating that the ‘Beast Incarnate’ will defeat every challenger in the match.
There has been speculation regarding Brock Lesnar and his position heading into WrestleMania 36. On this week’s episode of RAW Paul Heyman used some interesting verbiage to describe his opponents for this Sunday. Heyman described the Superstars in the match as “contracted challengers” for Sunday’s 30-Man Royal Rumble match. Heyman also mentioned how Lesnar has decided that there is not one person in the WWE locker room who is worthy of headlining WrestleMania 36 against him.
This has led speculation to run wild amongst fans. Some are questioning whether WWE will be looking to bring someone in for this Sunday, someone who is not currently ‘signed’ to WWE. The top name on the list is former WWE Champion CM Punk. Although it is worth mentioning that Heyman is a master of marketing, and that Punk himself has been trolling WWE fans recently, noting that he will not be heading to the Royal Rumble match.
