The Royal Rumble ended with a new WWE World Heavyweight champion with Triple H coming out on top as the Road to WrestleMania 32 officially started. The main event for February's pay-per-view Fastlane is already set with Roman Reigns vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar in a Triple Threat Match to determine the new number one contender for the WWE title.
The 2016 Royal Rumble is less than three weeks away, but so far there are only 10 WWE superstars who were announced as participants. Several surprise entrants and big names are rumored to be planned for the 30-Man Battle Royal, making it one of the most anticipated Royal Rumble events in history.
Many wrestling fans either woke up early or stayed awake to watch New Japan Pro Wrestling's "Wrestling Kingdom 10" on Monday morning, but the action continues on "WWE Monday Night Raw" as the WWE World Heavyweight Championship will be defended.
WWE "Monday Night Raw" returns to Minneapolis for the Slammy Awards, and it's the first Monday broadcast since Roman Reigns became the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
Roman Reigns will begin defending his WWE World Heavyweight championship and it is obvious that he will hold it for a long time. Reigns is going to be established as the next face of the WWE and he needs the right opponent at WrestleMania 32 next year to cement it.
