With World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Raw airing for the last time before the much awaited 2016 Royal Rumble, fans got a glimpse of things to come when they saw some of the participants slug it out from Chris Jericho's "Highlight Reel."

In a previous post, it was mentioned that the seeds have been planted for a possible Brock Lesnar vs. Bray Wyatt feud.

Depending on what happens at the rumble, the tension between Lesnar and Wyatt (or is it the Wyatt Family?) could heat up. And everyone knows the buzz around saying that Lesnar could be facing Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 32, which will take place in April. 

As for the Royal Rumble, it will be interesting to see if Roman Reigns will be able to keep his title. He seems to be the first man in the ring when WWE chairman Vince McMahon used a tumbler to draw the name of the first entrant. But the thing is, the tumbler seemed to contain nothing other than the Big Dog's name.

That sort of spoiled the night but then again, everyone knows the ongoing storyline.

Chris Jericho seems to be in the rumble as well but not expected to last long, same with the League of Nations. The Wyatt family could be out too, except maybe Bray Wyatt.

With that said, here is a possible scenario. What if it comes down to three men and it would be Lesnar, Reigns, and Wyatt? There could be a fourth one in the mix (like fans have seen plenty of times already) who could be the person Reigns will battle from there on.

Going back, Lesnar and Wyatt could eventually tangle and in the process eliminate each other. With them out, it means Reigns and whoever is left will slug it out.

These are all speculations and based on the trends going on in the WWE right now. But perhaps the real twist here is who will be Reigns' chief rival at the Royal Rumble match.
