Bookie .vs. Blogger: Comparing Our Rumble Top 5s (Week 3)

A month ago, a bookmaker and myself decided to run a series here at WWELeaks.org where we compared our Royal Rumble top five selections on a frequent basis leading up to January's battle royal.

We've met up for a third time to compare our picks. However, there has only been on change made.

The bookie has removed Chris Jericho from fifth place on his list. This is due to Jericho's Fozzy commitments meaning that he'll be touring with the band during Rumble and WrestleMania seasons. 

In Jericho's place is the 2017 winner - Randy Orton. The reason why the bookmaker has picked The Viper is because he still believes that the Rumble will be won by a member of the Smackdown roster.

You can see how our lists have changed over the three meetings in the table below.

In regards to my list -  there is still a big drop off after John Cena or Roman Reigns. For now, Shinsuke Nakamura stays in third, but I'm beginning to wonder if his WrestleMania match will be against his current tag team partner, Randy Orton.

The series will resume in a few weeks.
