Royal Rumble 2025 Predictions: Brock Lesnar, Big E, The Rock, and John Cena—Could The Rock Be Entrant #31?
The Royal Rumble is right around the corner, and as WWE’s most unpredictable event of the year, fans are already buzzing about potential surprises, shocking returns, and blockbuster moments. WrestlingChimp.com is diving into the speculation surrounding Royal Rumble 2025, and the excitement couldn’t be higher. Could this year’s Rumble deliver history in the making?
Brock Lesnar: Beast Mode Activated?
Brock Lesnar is no stranger to the Royal Rumble, and his presence alone guarantees chaos. The Beast Incarnate thrives in high-stakes environments, and if he enters this year’s Rumble, the landscape changes immediately. After a quiet few months since SummerSlam, fans are wondering if Lesnar has been lying in wait for a massive comeback. If Brock enters, expect bodies flying, suplexes galore, and maybe even a last-minute F5 to shake things up.
Prediction: Lesnar enters in the mid-20s and steamrolls through half the field before a shocking elimination.
Big E: The Feel-Good Story We Need
Big E is ready to reclaim his spot in the main event scene. Fans would love nothing more than to see him win the Rumble and punch his ticket to WrestleMania. The powerhouse of positivity has all the tools to survive a chaotic Rumble match, and a victory could set him up for a dream showdown with Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, or whoever holds the gold come April.
Prediction: Big E lasts over 30 minutes, eliminates five competitors, and makes it to the final four.
John Cena: One Last Shot?
John Cena has been teasing a big match for WrestleMania season, and what better way to set it up than by winning the Royal Rumble? The Cenation Leader has done it all, but a third Rumble victory would put him in legendary company. While Cena’s schedule is busier than ever in Hollywood, don’t count out the possibility of one more Rumble run to set up a dream feud heading into Mania.
Prediction: Cena enters at #15, gets a hero’s welcome, and delivers a classic performance before being eliminated in controversial fashion.
The Rock: Can He Smell the Rumble?
Here’s where things get electrifying. Rumors have been swirling for months about The Rock making a WWE return, and the Royal Rumble is the perfect stage. Fans are speculating that the People’s Champ could shock the world as a surprise entrant. Could he enter as the elusive #31? This idea has caught fire online, with fans believing WWE might bend the rules and introduce a jaw-dropping twist. Imagine the lights going out after the 30th entrant, followed by that iconic “If ya smell….”
If The Rock enters the Rumble, it’s hard to see him losing. The storyline possibilities are endless—whether it’s facing Roman Reigns at WrestleMania in a battle for family supremacy or creating a dream encounter with another megastar.
Prediction: If The Rock shows up (especially as #31), the roof blows off the arena, and he becomes an instant favorite to win it all.
Could #31 Change the Game?
The Royal Rumble traditionally has 30 entrants, but WWE isn’t shy about rewriting the script. A surprise 31st entrant could be the game-changer of 2025, and The Rock is the perfect candidate for this historic moment. Whether it’s part of a larger storyline or a simple surprise, this twist could elevate the Rumble to legendary status.
WrestlingChimp.com’s Final Prediction
The Royal Rumble 2025 promises to be one of the most unpredictable in history. While Brock Lesnar will bring destruction, Big E will be the heart, and Cena could be the sentimental favorite, it’s hard to ignore the buzz surrounding The Rock. If the People’s Champ returns—even as #31—it could be the most unforgettable Rumble moment ever.
