WWE adds more stars to the Royal Rumble, and one of them picked a very bad number

WWE’s Royal Rumble PLE takes place on Saturday afternoon (Jan. 31) in Saudi Arabia. Several more stars were officially confirmed for the men’s Royal Rumble match during tonight’s episode of SmackDown.

Damian Priest is one of the new names added to the men’s Rumble match, and he even got to pick his number out of the tumbler. R-Truth was on hand to say “my bad” when it didn’t go very well for his old pal DP. On the bright side, at least his shitty entry number can’t be as bad as [SPOILER].

Randy Orton, Trick Williams, Ilja Dragunov, and The Miz were also added to the men’s Rumble, bringing the total number of confirmed entrants in the match up to 21, with nine spots available.

• Cody Rhodes
• Jey Uso
• Solo Sikoa
• Jacob Fatu
• Rey Mysterio
• GUNTHER
• Dragon Lee
• Penta
• Roman Reigns
• Bron Breakker
• Logan Paul
• Bronson Reed
• Austin Theory
• Je’Von Evans
• Oba Femi
• Brock Lesnar
• Randy Orton
• Damian Priest
• Trick Williams
• Ilja Dragunov
• The Miz

As far as I can tell, no new stars were confirmed for the women’s Royal Rumble match, which means the updated list of entrants includes these 17 names, with 13 spots open.

• Rhea Ripley
• Iyo Sky
• Liv Morgan
• Roxanne Perez
• Raquel Rodriguez
• Becky Lynch
• Charlotte Flair
• Alexa Bliss
• Asuka
