US EditionWWE 'Royal Rumble': Liv Morgan, Roman Reigns Win Big
- On Saturday, WWE staged the Royal Rumble in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, featuring AJ Styles vs Gunther with Styles' career on the line and Drew McIntyre vs Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
- Because the Rumble grants title shots, WWE emphasized high-stakes stipulations, and winners secure guaranteed matches at WrestleMania 42, making it the event's key for storylines.
- Gunther ended Styles' match with a decisive finish, applying a sleeper hold that ended AJ Styles' WWE run as the Riyadh Season Arena fell silent then erupted when Styles signaled `P1`.
- Powerhouse Hobbs debuted for WWE then exited after Bronson Reed eliminated him following Hobbs' elimination of Damian Priest.
- Holding the Rumble in Riyadh signals broader international expansion plans, as this was the first Royal Rumble held outside North America, with an earlier U.S. start time and WWE announcing BACKLASH for May 9 in Tampa.
