The Rock will be one of the top contenders to win the 2025 Royal Rumble. He is all but set to perform at Wrestlemania 41 and will have to earn a title match.
Earlier in 2024, he became part of a title match without earning it and the fans' reaction saw WWE bringing back Cody Rhodes in the main event. The Rock winning the Rumble and then getting a title match may not upset the fans.
The Rock teased a future match against Cody Rhodes when he appeared on Raw after Wrestlemania and could face him next year. If he doesn't face Cody, then The Rock will face his cousin, Roman Reigns.
CM Punk missed out on winning the Royal Rumble 2024 and was the last superstar to get eliminated from the 30-man match. Punk is a strong contender to be part of a title match at Wrestlemania 41 and he could achieve it by winning the Royal Rumble.
CM Punk got injured at Royal Rumble 2024 and missed out on challenging Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania 40. He took part in his comeback match at SummerSlam.
Since CM Punk is part of Raw, he might challenge the World Heavyweight Champion if he wins the Royal Rumble 2025. Punk hasn't performed at Wrestlemania since 2013.
Randy Orton is likely to challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed Universal Championship in future. It's a Wrestlemania-worthy match and WWE might make Randy win the Royal Rumble to give him the title match.
Randy Orton is scheduled to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at Bash in Berlin but is unlikely to defeat him. He might turn heel ahead in 2025 and challenge Cody Rhodes for the title.
Seth Rollins is once again out of action. He made his comeback in June and challenged Damian Priest for the title at Money in the Bank, where fell short.
Seth Rollins could make a grand return at Royal Rumble 2025 and win the 30-man match to earn a title opportunity. He is a one-time Royal Rumble winner. Rollins only competed once after his return.
