The WWE Royal Rumble is the first stop of the WrestleMania 41 season. One male and one female superstar will secure world title matches by outlasting 29 other superstars in their respective divisions.

Each will have 30 entrants enter the ring and the winner will be guaranteed a championship opportunity at WrestleMania 41 in April, a potentially career-altering opportunity. That won’t be all that's happening,

After a brief appearance in 2022, WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella made her triumphant return as the 30th and final entrant into Saturday night’s WWE Royal Rumble 2025 in Indianapolis. The wrestler retired from the profession in 2019, but Saturday night was the first time WWE fans saw her in the ring since that 2022 surprise match.
