During a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray named his top choices for the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble match.
Ray said, “As of right now, I’m just going to pick these three names off the top of my head because these are my frontrunners: CM Punk, John Cena, and Roman Reigns. Who’s winning the Rumble?”
Thus far, John Cena, CM Punk, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, LA Knight, and Jey Uso have declared themselves for the Men’s Rumble match.
WWE Royal Rumble 2025 will be held on Saturday, February 1, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Penta made his highly anticipated WWE debut on Monday Night RAW this week. The former AEW veteran defeated Chad Gable during the Netflix broadcast.
Following the show, Gable addressed his loss on social media.
He tweeted, “I detest Penta, luchadores, and losing. But last night was a reminder as to why I fell in love with this beautiful artistic expression of physicality and the sport of Professional Wrestling when I was 5 years old and have been obsessed with it ever since. I felt so alive.”
