The Royal Rumble PPV is the one PPV of the year with the potential for the most number of surprises. The 2025 Royal Rumble will be held in front of 65,000 fans which will be the highest attended Royal Rumble of all time. Triple H would want to fill both the Rumble Matches with surprises. 10 women have been announced and 15 men have been announced for the Royal Rumble Matches.
Let’s look at the potential Surprises for the 2025 Royal Rumble
The Rock
The biggest surprise that could happen at the 2025 Royal Rumble will be The Rock. He was last seen on the debut episode of Raw on Netflix. He was acting like a face but it will take one second to turn back to the Final Boss. WWE fans have been hoping that The Rock comes out at number 31 in the Royal Rumble and uses his executive powers as Director of the board. He will get a huge ovation and most likely win the Royal Rumble. He would likely eliminate Roman Reigns to win the match.
Becky Lynch
Since WWE have announced Charlotte Flair for the Women’s Royal Rumble, the biggest surprise that could be in the match is Becky Lynch. Becky Lynch has been away from WWE for more than 6 months. She has recently signed a new contract and will most likely return as a surprise at the Royal Rumble. Becky Lynch will be one of the favourites to win the match as well. The 65,000 fans will be ecstatic and the Road to WrestleMania will officially begin.
Alexa Bliss
The Women’s Royal Rumble has the scope for more shocking surprises as compared to the men. Alexa Bliss has been away from WWE for 2 years since the 2023 Royal Rumble. She became a mother and had some health concerns. Recently she has been getting into wrestling shape and if she returns in the Royal Rumble Match , it would be a huge moment and exactly what the women’s division needs. She is an established star whom the WWE fans know and WrestleMania 41 will become a must see.
Joe Hendry
WWE and TNA have announced a multi year partnership where talents from both companies will interact with each other. The Royal Rumble will be the perfect place to establish this partnership. Joe Hendry is the new TNA World Champion and him being in the Royal Rumble Match will be huge for TNA and this partnership. Joe Hendry was in NXT last year and he got a big reaction. He even competed for the NXT Championship. Joe Hendry has called out John Cena and a moment between them in the Royal Rumble would be fantastic.
Jade Cargill
Jade Cargill has been out of WWE for the past many months. She was attacked backstage by a mysterious person. Since then the WWE fans have speculated that it could have been Naomi because she benefitted the most as she became the tag team champion with Bianca Belair. Jade Cargill returning at the Royal Rumble would be a big surprise. Both Naomi and Bianca Belair need to be there in the match when Jade Cargill returns. Then she will attack Naomi and everyone will be shocked. The 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble could be one of the most star studded Royal Rumbles of all time.
