WWE Royal Rumble 2024: Confirmed And Probable Match Card For Inaugural Annual Event
Many hot agents are expected to make their return in the official card of the WWE Royal Rumble 2024. Here are the details.
WWE Royal Rumble 2024: The inaugural annual event of the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is set to take place on January 27 (In India, January 28, 2024) at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida. The event is circulated around with lots of excitement as controversial WWE Superstar CM Punk made his return back in November 2023.
With few male superstars and few female superstars officially announcing their entry in the '30-Men/Women Over The Top Rope' Royal Rumble, here is the official match card for the Royal Rumble 2024.
Official Match Card - Royal Rumble 2024
Men's Royal Rumble Match: Last year's winner Cody Rhodes will be looking to 'finish his story' as he has boldly claimed since past 12 months, after he suffered a heart-breaking loss at Wrestlemania 39 to 'The Tribal Chief' Roman Reigns. CM Punk also will be looking to write history as he is the hottest favourite to win the Royal Rumble. Former Royal Rumble winners Shinsuke Nakamura and Drew McIntyre will participate alongside Bobby Lashley and 25 other participants.
Women's Royal Rumble Match: Bayley, Nia Jax, Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair and 26 other participants.
Fatal Four-Way match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship: 'The Tribal Chief' Roman Reigns will be defending his title against 'The Phenomenal' AJ Styles, 'The Viper' Randy Orton and latest sensation of SmackDown, LA Knight.
Singles match for the WWE United States Championship: Defending Logan Paul will go one on one against 'Fight Owens Fight' Kevin Owens.
Probable Matchup
Gunther has been on an historic Intercontinental Championship reign as he is the longest-ever Intercontinental champion in its history. However, we might see an end to the reign as former All Elite Wrestling (AEW) champion MJF can reportedly make his in-ring debut at the event and face Gunther for the title bout. The likeliness of the matchup is high as he recently relinquished his AEW title after taking a loss against Samoa Joe and is now a free agent after he was officially removed from the AEW roster on their website.
