Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash never won the Royal Rumble match, but has his pick as to which male Superstar will win this month.
On a recent edition of his “Kliq This” podcast, Nash predicted that Randy Orton will be leaving the event on January 27 with a World title match at WrestleMania 40. He said,
“If I had to bet, I’d say Randy Orton wins the Rumble.”
Nash added that he doesn’t believe Drew McIntyre has a chance after his loss last week to Seth Rollins. McIntyre declared himself for the Men’s Rumble on this week’s episode of RAW.
Orton is a two-time Royal Rumble match winner, having won in 2009 and 2017. A victory in the Men’s Rumble match would see Orton tie with Steve Austin for most wins.
Orton will challenge for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view event. It is possible that he could compete in that match and the Men’s Rumble match.
