Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has emerged as an early favorite to win next year's Royal Rumble.
Odds released by Sky Bet list Johnson as a 2-1 favorite to win the event, followed by Daniel Bryan (6-1), Seth Rollins (8-1), and Braun Strowman (9-1), according to Wrestling Inc's Raj Giri. Roman Reigns, John Cena, and Finn Balor are tied at 12-1 odds.
The 2019 Royal Rumble will take place Jan. 27 at Chase Field in Phoenix, marking the first time the event has ever been held at a baseball stadium.
Johnson told WWE's Cathy Kelley in July that he "can't wait to get back into a WWE ring," and there has reportedly been talk of him making his return at WrestleMania 35.
