The 2026 Royal Rumble is getting closer, and the excitement is starting to build. The big event is just three weeks away, and WWE Superstars are now expected to begin announcing their entry into the famous match. This week, Monday Night RAW is live from Dusseldorf, and that makes it the perfect place for some big Rumble declarations.
Since this year’s Royal Rumble will take place in Saudi Arabia, WWE is planning something special. Here are four stars who could step forward tonight and say they are ready for the Rumble.
Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch is back on top after winning the Intercontinental Championship again. Now she may have bigger plans. Becky could return on RAW with a clear goal to become Becky Two Belts once more. This time, she might want both the Intercontinental and the World Championship.
To make that happen, she could announce her entry into the Women’s Royal Rumble match. Becky has won the Rumble before, so she knows exactly what it takes to go all the way.
Gunther
Gunther has become one of the most hated stars in WWE after making John Cena tap out in his final match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Tonight, he is already set to face AJ Styles, but that may not be all.
After the match, Gunther could declare that he is entering the Royal Rumble. He still wants to be World Champion again, and winning the Rumble is the fastest way to get there. With his recent tension with CM Punk, his path to WrestleMania looks very interesting.
Liv Morgan
The Women’s World Title scene on RAW is very crowded right now, with Raquel Rodriguez and Nikki Bella fighting for the top spot. Liv Morgan has been away from the title race even though she is part of Judgment Day.
Instead of waiting for an opening, Liv could take control by entering the Women’s Royal Rumble. After missing many months last year, this would be the perfect way for her to rebuild her momentum and aim for a big WrestleMania moment.
Bron Breakker
Bron Breakker recently challenged CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship but came up short. Even so, his confidence and mic skills have improved a lot, and he is now seen as a real main event star.
After losing the title match, Bron could turn his focus to the Royal Rumble. A strong showing in the Rumble would prove he belongs at the top, even if he does not win it this year.
LA Knight
LA Knight has been missing from TV for weeks after being taken out by Bronson Reed. Reports say he is heading to Germany, which is where RAW is happening tonight.
This could be the perfect time for Knight to return and make a big statement. He could walk out and announce that he is entering the Royal Rumble. Fans have been waiting for him to get a World Title chance, and winning the Rumble would give him exactly that.
With so many big names ready to step up, tonight’s RAW could be the start of an exciting road to the 2026 Royal Rumble.
