Roman Reigns is going to be back in the Men's Royal Rumble Match for the first time in five years. Paul Heyman made that announcement Friday night on SmackDown.

Sometimes the runner-up can be a massive name or contender, but others have been, in hindsight especially, awful choices at coming second. Fans have groaned at some of these wrestlers who finished second, as they either showed no threat to winning the match or else the booking decision to have them so close to winning was a mistake.

Wrestling fans, rejoice: it’s officially Royal Rumble season! The Road to WrestleMania is upon us, and it’s impossible not to get excited about Royal Rumble 2025. The annual Royal Rumble event has a history of consistently delivering.

With the cast of characters involved and a myriad of storylines, the 2025 Royal Rumble should be the biggest and best in the history of WWE.

While most fans get excited for the actual Royal Rumble match during the event, WWE has booked some of the best World Title bouts of all time!

Both the Men's and Women's Royal Rumble matches features WWE Superstars who standout in single Rumble matches by dumping out the most competitors.
