WWE is getting ready to produce one of the big four Premium Live Events next month. Royal Rumble is just a few weeks away, and fans couldn't be more excited about the mega event. The event usually kicks off the Road to WrestleMania, as the winner of the traditional battle royals challenges the World Champion at The Grandest Stage of Them All.
Royal Rumble will take place on February 1, 2025, in Lucas Oil Stadium, Indiana. So far, John Cena, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight have announced their participation in the 30-man Royal Rumble match. No one has officially announced their participation as a competitor in the Women's Royal Rumble match.
Many fans believe that including AEW stars in the Royal Rumble match would be interesting. Top stars from the Jacksonville-based promotion could make a huge impact in the crucial bout, as they will interact with multiple other stars. The promotions will tease many dream matches.

Let's take a look at some of the names who could be show-stoppers in the Men's Royal Rumble match.
Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?
#7. and #6. Brian Cage and Konosuke Takeshita
The Don Callis Family has dominated most of the locker room due to the number of games in recent months. Brian Cage, Konosuke Takeshita, Lance Archer, and Kyle Fletcher are rising to the top as they take down every top star that stands in their way.
International Champion Konosuke Takeshita and Brian Cage are two of the hardest hitters in AEW. Both powerhouses also showcase unreal agility during their matches. Both stars entering the Royal Rumble could easily take down multiple WWE stars with their strength.
#5. Sammy Guevara
The Spanish God is one of the top high-flyers AEW has to offer. His matches include risky top-rope moves, and he has proven to be among the hardest workers in the Jacksonville-based promotion. The reigning ROH World Tag Team Champion could confront many WWE stars if he enters the Royal Rumble match.
Sammy Guevara could have a face-off with Logan Paul, Rey Mysterio, and many other WWE stars. It will be interesting to see the former pull off a stunt like Kofi Kingston, where the latter re-entered the ring after being thrown out without breaking any rules.
#4. MJF
The former AEW World Champion has been actively taking shots through social media for a very long time. His trolling doesn't stay exclusive to the AEW locker room but sometimes also roasts stars from WWE. He certainly might have upset several stars from the global sports entertainment juggernaut over the years.
MJF could easily steal the light from every star after cutting a cunning promo before entering the ring. He could take shots at how WWE is inferior to AEW and would instantly be eliminated by stars in the ring.
#3. Jack Perry
WWE fans occasionally thank The Scapegoat, as his dispute with CM Punk brought The Voice of the Voiceless back to the company. Jack Perry entering Lucas Oil Stadium would be met with loud boos and chants like 'CM Punk' and 'Cry Me A River.'
Punk and Perry's interaction during the match would be one of the most memorable moments in Royal Rumble history.
#2. Hangman Page
The Cowboy is one of the few popular names among both companies. His intense promos and incredible matches have made him one of the top stars in the Jacksonville-based promotion. His arrival in the Royal Rumble match would garner a huge pop.
Moreover, Hangman Page's interaction with Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and several other stars would be a great highlight of the show, as his heel version would lead to disastrous confrontations.
#1. AEW's Ace - Will Ospreay vs. WWE
The Aerial Assassin has been one of AEW's top babyfaces. Since joining the Tony Khan-led promotion in 2024, he has wrestled in high-paced matches and became prominent after putting on a top-notch bout with every opponent he faced.
AEW's top star fighting with WWE's best stars in the Royal Rumble match would be a phenomenal experience for fans. Will Ospreay's babyface performance against the global sports entertainment juggernaut's heels would truly be remarkable.
It will be interesting to see which other stars will steal the show at the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event.
