WWE Royal Rumble is one of the most anticipated premium live events of the wrestling industry. The event has a separate fan base for its Royal Rumble matches. Winning a Royal Rumble match has been a dream for many as it could position the winner into a championship spotlight by headlining the grandest stage of them all, “WrestleMania”.

With months away from the 2024 Royal Rumble, a rumor related to the possible Royal Rumble winner has been circulating around the Internet. Let’s get deep into what the actual rumor is.

Finn Balor, the Royal Rumble 2024 Winner?

As per rumors, WWE is considering to position The Judgement Day member Finn Balor as one of the strongest contenders to win the Royal Rumble 2024. Since, Balor hasn’t won any major championships in WWE other than the less than 1 day reign of the Universal Championship, winning the Rumble could be a major accomplishment of his career. The victory could position him to main event WrestleMania 40 and probably make him the World Heavyweight Champion.

The reports gave some hints that if Balor parts his way away from the Judgement Day before this year, the chances of him winning the Rumble could increase. The chances could increase even more, if fellow Judgement Day member Damien Priest successfully cashes-in the Money in the Bank to become the World Champion.

The rumors were built in a way where Finn Balor will face Damien Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40.

Other Early Contenders

As per speculations the other possible contenders for the Royal Rumble 2024 are,

The reigning Intercontinental Champion, “The Ring General” Gunther is one of the strong contenders for winning the Royal Rumble. Gunther had already come runner up in the 2023 Royal Rumble and stood in the ring for over one hour to become the longest standing wrestler in the Rumble match. The upcoming year could be his year to kick out of the mid-card and move towards the top-card.

LA Knight is another strong contender to win the Royal Rumble 2024. Knight has been the sensation of the company in recent times and is backed up by the increasing fan following. He just won the Slim Jim SummerSlam Battle Royal, marking his first major win. He is in the initial stage of the push, and it is speculated that his push might reach the pinnacle at the 2024 Royal Rumble.

Who do you think could win the 2024 Royal Rumble? Will Finn Balor’s long wait turn good at Royal Rumble 2024? Share your thoughts with us.
