WWE is pulling out all of the stops for their upcoming the Greatest Royal Rumble event.
The sports entertainment company will be holding the show at the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Friday, April 27. For the first time ever, the Royal Rumble match will feature 50 WWE Superstars.
On Monday morning, (March 26, 2018), WWE issued a press release to announce three new matches for the upcoming event.
Triple H vs. John Cena in a singles match, The Hardys vs. RAW Tag Team Champions The Bar and a Ladder Match with Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe vs. Finn Balor vs. WWE Intercontinental Champion The Miz.
Roman Reigns, AJ Styles, Braun Strowman, The New Day, Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt, and Shinsuke Nakamura have already been announced for the show. Although the sports entertainment company has yet to come out and officially announce it, the belief is that this event will indeed be broadcasted on the WWE Network.
It’s also been reported that WWE is making “every move possible” to ensure that the first event as part of that agreement is to put on a big show.
It’s been well documented that Jeff Hardy has been cleared to return to in-ring action and has been working out at the WWE Performance Center to prepare for his return.
