2) Baron Corbin Will Be Booked Like A Monster

We usually see it every year in the Royal Rumble match. WWE books one of their stars to dominate and look like a million bucks.

I predict that in the 2017 edition of the Rumble, it will be the Baron Corbin show. It looks like WWE has a lot of faith in Corbin as he has ascended into the main event picture of Smackdown Live over the past several weeks. This includes a great showing for the WWE World Title and also a main event match against John Cena (even though he lost).

It is clear that WWE has some big plans for Corbin and I think they are going to try to book him like a monster in this years Rumble match. I fully expect to see Corbin rack up an impressive amount of eliminations this year. Due to the talent in this years Rumble, I doubt he will get close to the record of Roman Reigns (12 eliminations in 2014) but expect him to play a factor in a few eliminations.

I don’t think Corbin will win the Rumble but I expect him to walk out of the match looking like a million bucks.
