The Royal Rumble is my favorite Premium Live Event of the year. You never quite know who will show up as 30 of the best men and women battle for a chance to challenge for championship gold at WrestleMania.
This year’s Rumble features a who’s who of potential winners as high-profile grapplers like John Cena, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Seth “Freakin” Rollins, Drew McIntyre, Sami Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura, Logan Paul, Jey Uso, and Penta have already declared for the over-the-top-rope battle royal.
When it comes to surprise entrants, well, anything is possible. Could we see the return of Randy Orton? An appearance from a commentator like Corey Graves, Wade Barrett, or Pat McAfee? What about AJ Lee, Matt Cardona, Jordynne Grace (who appeared in the 2024 event), or Nikki Bella? Finally, the recently announced WWE/TNA partnership means we’re more than likely to see at least one TNA star, with TNA World Champion Joe Hendry (say his name and he appears) and/or the artist formerly known as Dolph Ziggler being my best guesses.
Where can you watch this year’s Royal Rumble? Here’s everything you need to know.
The Royal Rumble begins at 6:00 p.m. ET on Peacock. Coverage starts at 4:00 p.m. ET on the streamer.
Nope. While the Royal Rumble will stream on Netflix in a variety of international markets, the Premium Live Event won’t be available on Netflix in the United States.
