In the 38 years of the Royal Rumble match, there have been multiple instances of renowned legends and Hall of Famers who have entered the 30-man over-the-top-rope match.
The Royal Rumble event is one of the most exciting and much-awaited events of the year. WWE is gearing up to present the 38th edition of the Big Four event this Saturday at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indiana, Indianapolis. With names like John Cena, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and CM Punk announced for the show, it is expected to be grand spectacle and successful event.
One interesting factor that could make this event even more monumental is the addition of legends to the Royal Rumble match. Over the years, the rumble matches have seen these legendary figures enter the 30-person over-the-top-rope melee as surprise entrants, and the 2025 edition could be no different.
Here are the top three legends who are rumored to enter the Men’s Royal Rumble match this year
3) Kurt Angle
Kurt Angle is the only WWE legend in the history of the company to win gold medals in the Olympics. Not only that, but he has also had successful tenures in promotions like WWE and TNA. Furthermore, Angle recently confirmed that he will be in attendance for the 2025 Royal Rumble event via Great Offshore Sportsbooks. This makes it a huge possibility for the Olympic Hero to enter the Men’s Royal Rumble this year and add to the already set star power in the match.
2) Goldberg
Goldberg has been one of the most accomplished legends in the business of professional wrestling. The WCW Icon made his return to WWE at the Bad Blood PLE and hinted at a potential match against Gunther. Moreover, he is set to hang up his boots for good in 2025, so Royal Rumble could be a good stop for him to dust off the ring rust before his final match in the company.
1) Hulk Hogan
Hulk Hogan made his return to WWE television programming at the debut edition of RAW on Netflix and received an overwhelmingly negative reaction from the fans. Moreover, there have been rumours that Hogan will debut as a heel character going forward, and CM Punk has also expressed negative remarks about The Immortal One. This could lead to The Hulkster making his surprise entry into the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble under the new heel persona and running Hulkamania wild once again after many years.
