Braun Strowmn is the betting favorite is hardly a surprise. Give his ability to toss humans like sacks of garbage, Strowman is a safe pick to win any Royal Rumble, no matter how great.

Daniel Bryan shares the exact odds as the Monster AMong Me, but for very different reasons. Once upon a time, Bryan was the most popular star in WWE. You know the rest, Bryan was forced into a premature (and arguably erroneous) retirement and was kept out of action for three years. Thanks to his relentless diligence, Bryan earned medical clearance and is now on track to resume his role as WWE's darling. WInning a 50-man Royal Rumble would be a nice feather in his comeback's hat.

Other names like Bobby Lashley and Big Cass aren't bad picks, but for the most part, this match is wholly unpredictable.

WWE hasn't assigned stakes to this match, which have already contributed to an overwhelming "meh" feeling, but at minimum, the winner will likely get an obnoxiously large trophy.

We'll see how things shake out, but if you have some spare change, you may as well put it on Strowman and watch him fling a few 205 Live representatives into the crowd.
