Triple H Makes Huge WWE Royal Rumble Announcement
WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H has made a big announcement ahead of the Royal Rumble.
This year’s Royal Rumble will be the 39th iteration of the annual event. It is scheduled to take place on Saturday, January 31, 2026, at the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
As usual, there will be a men’s and women’s Royal Rumble match, and the winners will get world title shots at WrestleMania 42. Also, Sami Zayn will challenge Drew McIntyre for the WWE Undisputed Championship at the event. Plus, AJ Styles will face Gunther in a career-threatening match where, if Styles loses, he will be forced to retire from in-ring competition.
We are less than a week away from Rumble, and Triple H recently released a major announcement on social media. Taking to his X account, The Game shared that “Heavy Is The Crown” by Linkin Park is an official theme song of this year’s Royal Rumble premium live event.

Ex-WWE star Paige Teases A Return to the Royal Rumble Return
Paige, aka Saraya, took a break from the wrestling world after she left AEW in early 2025. But as the year came to an end, she revealed that she had reignited her passion for wrestling and wanted to return to the ring. She made her wrestling comeback in the indies in December 2025.
Lately, she has been posting videos of herself training hard inside the ring. She was recently seen “dusting off some ring” rust with indie star Vipress. It looks like she is gearing up for a big return, and it could happen at the Royal Rumble this weekend.
