1) CM Punk Wins The Royal Rumble Match & Main Events Wrestlemania
A strong option for WWE would be to keep CM Punk’s in-ring return until the Royal Rumble. Just imagine the crowd reaction if Punk were to come out as the #30 entrant in the Royal Rumble match. It would be insane.
Punk could appear at #30 and go on to win the Royal Rumble match. This would set us up for a few great options.
The first would be Punk challenging Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship. Punk and Brock have a lot of history with one another. Plus, Paul Heyman used to manage Punk. Punk vs Brock for the WWE Championship could be a great main event of Wrestlemania 36. It would also be an entertaining storyline.
The other option would be Punk challenging Bray Wyatt for the WWE Universal Championship. Punk and Bray also have tons of history with each other and this could be another fun main event for Wrestlemania 36.
Either way, there are some great options for WWE if Punk won the Royal Rumble match. I think that most fans would be happy with either direction.
