We're just over a month away from the 38th annual edition of the WWE Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. The next year's marquee show will take place on February 1 at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The 30-man Royal Rumble Match is seen as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a WWE Superstar to earn a World Championship shot and book their WrestleMania main event berth.
Earlier today, a document surfaced on X (fka Twitter), seemingly spoiling all the participants in the Men's Royal Rumble Match next year. The lineup of the entrants is as follows:
- Randy Orton
- Kevin Owens
- Sami Zayn
- Andrade
- AJ Styles
- "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio
- Rey Mysterio
- Trick Williams
- Ludwig Kaiser
- Jacob Fatu
- Braun Strowman
- The Miz

Fans drowned out a popular wrestler with 'She's a racist' chants recently
John Cena is listed as the winner, while The Rock is the runner-up from the 31st spot, which is hilarious since there's no 31st spot. Of course, The Final Boss could misuse his power as he's a member of the board of directors of TKO.
So, this leads us to the question: Is this real or fake?
As exciting as this lineup seems on paper, it is not real. Every year, some fans circulate fake documents, claiming the leaked participants for the Royal Rumble Match. WWE wouldn't intentionally or unintentionally leak such information to the public and spoil the result well in advance.
As of this writing, no participants have been officially announced for the 2025 Royal Rumble Match.

46-year-old WWE legend tipped to win the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble Match
Speaking on a recent episode of the Notsam Wrestling podcast, backstage analyst Sam Roberts named CM Punk as his pick for the winner of the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble Match.
"If not Roman Reigns, maybe [CM] Punk. Maybe Punk is the winner, you know, I don't mind that. What if Punk and Drew are number one and two, and Punk and Drew are also the last two, and then Punk eliminates Drew, and he's the winner? Yeah, yeah, could be," he said.
The Straight Edge Superstar has achieved everything in WWE except for winning the Royal Rumble and headlining WrestleMania.
According to recent reports, WWE wants the Second City Saint in the World Title picture heading into WrestleMania 41. A match between CM Punk and Roman Reigns has also been discussed.
Will 2025 be the year of CM Punk? Only time will tell.
