Shane McMahon’s Son Declan Attending WWE Royal Rumble
Shane McMahon’s son oldest son Declan is attending WWE’s Royal Rumble and he has said in the past that he was interested in being a pro wrestler.
During the opening video package of WrestleMania 20 in 2004, former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon appeared with his son Shane and a baby. That baby was Shane’s oldest of three sons named Declan McMahon, who is now a university student who attended Indiana University where he played football. Declan entered the transfer portal during the 2024 season.
At the WWE Fastlane 2023 PLE in Indianapolis, Declan McMahon appeared in the crowd with some of his friends. Declan has also been backstage for many WWE events, posed with Tag Team Titles and other things.
The 2025 WWE Royal Rumble is taking place in Indianapolis and Declan went on social media to announce that he would be at the Royal Rumble.
“Can’t wait to be at the Royal Rumble tomorrow night in Indianapolis!!!”
When a fan commented that Declan should enter the Royal Rumble, Declan wrote: “Soon” with eyeball emojis, which is a way of telling somebody to keep watching.
We are guessing that his uncle, WWE’s Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque, won’t make Declan pay for tickets.
Declan McMahon Thinks WWE Could Be In His Future
At WrestleMania 32 in 2016, when Shane McMahon faced The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell, Shane was joined by his three sons for his entrance. That was nearly nine years ago now and obviously, Declan has grown up a lot.
There are six Vince & Linda McMahon grandkids with Shane and his wife Marissa having three sons while Stephanie McMahon and Triple H have three daughters.
In a November 2023 interview, Declan McMahon claimed that of the McMahon grandchildren, he would fit in best with WWE.
“Oh, probably me. I mean, the story, the story’s already written, right? I mean, the rightful heir, the good-looking — the one who looks like Vince, right? So, I think, just in the sense that you could play off the WrestleMania 20 [intro], right, like I posted on Twitter, right? You could play that off and just show that like, the new generation [of] McMahon has arrived. I think in that sense, I would.”
“We have such a great family, and we’re all so supportive of each other. So I think, I think really, any of us could potentially want to do it. You know, I know Aurora, Paul’s oldest daughter, Triple H’s oldest daughter, she’s always talked about wanting to do it, but in having my dad and my grandpa’s ego, I think I’d be the best.”
You can watch the WWE Royal Rumble when it streams live on Saturday, February 1, at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT, exclusively on Peacock in the United States and Netflix internationally.
