All superstars confirmed for Men's WWE Royal Rumble 2025 so far

2025 Royal Rumble could end up being one of the greatest of all time

A new year has arrived, which means WWE has begun planning for its first major premium live event of the year. As usual, that’s Royal Rumble. Not only is this the first WWE PLE of the year, but it is also one of the largest.

This year’s WWE Royal Rumble was extremely historic for several reasons. Most notably, it will be the first WWE PLE to be streamed live on Netflix, as well as the first time the event will not take place in January. It will take place on February 1, 2025, this year.

Even if there are other matches on the schedule, most of the attention will be focused on the matchups that bear the event’s name. Since 2018, there have been two Royal Rumble bouts every year: one for men and one for women.

Since the countdown to the PLE has begun, Superstars have begun to announce and win their spots in the 30-men matchups. Everyone who has been confirmed for the men’s Rumble battle so far is listed here and the lists will be updated when additional Superstars are added.

WWE superstars confirmed for Men’s Royal Rumble 2025

• ‘The Second City Saint’ CM Punk
• John Cena
• Jey Uso
• LA Knight
• ‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns
• Seth “Freakin” Rollins
• Drew McIntyre
• Rey Mysterio
• Sami Zayn
• Shinsuke Nakamura
• Logan Paul
• Bron Breakker
• Carmelo Hayes
• Damian Priest
• Santos Escobar
• Jacob Fatu

Except for the one time there were 40, and the 50-man Greatest Royal Rumble, which should presumably be deleted from history, every Royal Rumble battle has had 30 superstars. Some of those Superstars will remain anonymous until the clock strikes zero and their song is released. Others, whether they declare entrance or win a match to secure a berth, are revealed ahead of time.

We’ve previously discussed Punk and Cena, and there’s a very good probability they make it to the final four and one of them wins. Jey Uso and LA Knight will also take part in the event.

Despite his extensive career in WWE, this will be Jey’s fourth Royal Rumble bout. It will be an even greater night for Knight, who has never wrestled in a Royal Rumble match. On February 1, he will reach yet another significant milestone.
