Well, fans should be very happy with this outcome, at least!

Tonight's Royal Rumble match was terrific overall, with a few nice surprises (more on that later) and some very well planned-out eliminations. Eventually, it came down to four huge names: John Cena, Roman Reigns, Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura.

Cena eliminated Balor, allowing Shin to get the upper hand and hit his Kinshasa to knock the "Franchise Playa" off the apron. Then, "The Big Dog" and "The King of Strong Style" went at it, and there were several close calls. In the end, Nak hit yet another knee strike and tossed Reigns over the top rope to win the Rumble, before officially declaring that he will face AJ Styles for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania.

Fans have wanted to see these two lock-up in a WWE ring for a long time, so their match at 'Mania should be something very special.

What do you guys think about "The Artist" winning the Royal Rumble? Sound off below.
