The countdown for Royal Rumble 2025 has officially begun, and the excitement is building! WWE recently shared a star-studded poster to mark the start of preparations for their first big event of the year. With all the buzz around WWE’s Netflix debut, fans are now also awaiting what’s to come at the year’s first POLE event.
The Royal Rumble 2025 will take place on February 1, 2025, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, and it promises to be an exciting night since Triple H has said we are in a new era of wrestling. WWE kicked off the promotion with an official poster for the event after last Friday’s SmackDown.
On December 27, SmackDown announced the first official match for Royal Rumble: Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens for the championship. Other matches are still unknown.

Booker T could return at Royal Rumble 2025
Booker T, a WWE Hall of Famer, recently returned to the ring for his first match since July 2022, facing off against Zilla Fatu at a ROW event. Rumors are now buzzing that Booker T might make a surprise return at the Royal Rumble 2025.
Gunther swiftly eliminated the six-time world champion at the Royal Rumble in 2023. After that, Booker T announced his retirement, citing his age issue.
