After a year filled with ups and downs, including Monday Night Raw’s move to Netflix and WWE’s PLEs shifting to ESPN. The company is now turning its attention to 2026. In the coming year, WWE plans to explore new territories, achieve fresh milestones, and further expand its global reach through major events and innovative fan experiences.

The 39th edition of Royal Rumble, also promoted as Royal Rumble: Riyadh, will be the first PLE of 2026, kicking off another year for the promotion on the road to WrestleMania 42.
