Show open

The 2025 Royal Rumble kicked off with a high-energy pre-show packed with anticipation. As the Star-Spangled Banner played, the atmosphere inside the arena was electric, setting the stage for one of WWE's most highly anticipated events of the year.

The broadcast opened with a montage featuring several WWE Superstars backstage and making their arrivals, each competitor looking focused and ready for battle. As the camera cut to the ring, Stephanie McMahon made her entrance to a strong crowd reaction. Ever the showwoman, she engaged the audience for the traditional cheap pop before turning her attention to the record-breaking event.

Stephanie thanked the WWE Universe for making the 2025 Royal Rumble the biggest in history, acknowledging the sold-out crowd and their dedication to the spectacle. The fans, naturally, responded with thunderous cheers. She then officially welcomed everyone to the event before an explosive pyrotechnic display lit up the arena.

The broadcast then transitioned to a pre-recorded segment featuring Pat McAfee in what was described as a cold open. The charismatic commentator took a moment to hype up his hometown of Indianapolis before delivering a rapid-fire history lesson on the Royal Rumble, highlighting its legacy and impact on WWE history.

2025 Women’s Royal Rumble Match 

Alicia Taylor kicks off the Women's Royal Rumble by providing a quick rundown of the rules. The crowd reacts enthusiastically to the instructions. The first entrant is Iyo Sky, marking her third time competing in a Royal Rumble match. Liv Morgan enters second, continuing her streak of participating in every Women's Royal Rumble to date. She has also been the runner-up for the past two years.

As the match begins, Liv and Iyo circle each other, engaging the crowd before locking up. Michael Cole and Wade Barrett immediately jump into commentary, offering statistics and strategic insights on surviving as an early entrant in a Rumble match. Pat McAfee also joins in on commentary. Iyo quickly takes Liv down, earning cheers from the audience. The two battle near the ropes, with Liv managing to toss Iyo over the top. They fight precariously on the apron, with Iyo holding onto Liv’s leg to stay in the match. Iyo eventually creates separation and re-enters the ring. Liv attempts her signature ObLIVion, but Iyo counters. Iyo nearly eliminates Liv, sending her over the top rope, but Liv manages to hang on. The two struggle for control as the countdown begins.

Roxanne Perez enters as the third competitor. She wastes no time, diving into the action and squaring off against both Iyo and Liv individually. The intensity builds as the match progresses, leading to the arrival of the fourth entrant—Lyra Valkyria—who jumps straight into the fray.

Lyra Valkyria rushes into the ring but immediately faces a wardrobe issue. Fortunately, the camera remains focused on Iyo Sky, Roxanne Perez, and Liv Morgan, who are engaged in a heated exchange on the far side of the ring. After a brief moment, Valkyria is back in action, and all four women take the fight to the ropes. Iyo is sent over the top but clings on desperately to avoid elimination.

The fifth entrant, Women's United States Champion Chelsea Green, makes her entrance. Taking her time down the lengthy ramp, she shows no urgency while the four competitors continue battling inside the ring. Once she finally steps between the ropes, Chelsea makes an instant impact, delivering hard slaps to both Roxanne Perez and Liv Morgan. Meanwhile, Iyo Sky and Lyra Valkyria find themselves tossed over the top rope but manage to hang on.

Chelsea takes control, repeatedly sending Superstars over the ropes without officially eliminating them. At one point, she sends all four competitors to the apron and begins celebrating prematurely. However, her victory lap is short-lived as the other women rally together, overwhelming her with a flurry of strikes and taking her down.

The sixth entrant, B-Fab, makes her way to the ring and immediately engages with various Superstars. She delivers a scoop slam to Liv Morgan, dropping her onto Lyra Valkyria. B-Fab and Iyo Sky go toe-to-toe in the center of the ring, with B-Fab managing to bring down Sky. She keeps up the pressure, attempting to eliminate Iyo in the corner. Meanwhile, Morgan and Valkyria continue their battle in another section of the ring, while Chelsea Green and Roxanne Perez fight in a third.

The action remains fast-paced, with no eliminations yet as the countdown begins for the seventh entrant—Ivy Nile.

Zoey Stark, known as "The Sniper" from Pure Fusion Collective, makes her entrance as the eighth participant, jogging to the ring and immediately joining the action. Liv Morgan goes on the attack, but Stark counters with a shoulder thrust. She follows up with a suplex toss on Iyo Sky before taking down Ivy Nile and B-Fab with sharp kicks.

Chelsea Green attempts to throw Stark over the top rope, but Zoey responds with a well-placed kick and re-enters the ring. She then goes after Iyo Sky, nearly eliminating her, but Sky manages to hang on—adding yet another close call to her tally for the night. The chaos continues as multiple competitors attempt eliminations, but no one is sent over the top rope.

Lash Legend is the ninth entrant, ready to shake things up.

Every move Lash Legend executes is met with commentary adding "legend" before it—an increasingly irritating trend. Meanwhile, the ring remains full as eliminations have yet to begin.

B-Fab seizes an opportunity, attacking Legend from behind and taunting her. The two engage in a heated exchange, trading blows before simultaneously landing jumping kicks that take them both down.

The first elimination finally comes when Chelsea Green capitalizes on the chaos, tossing B-Fab over the top rope. The crowd erupts as the moment sinks in. With the tension building, the next competitor makes her way to the ring—it's Bianca Belair!

Nine participants remain in the match, with only one elimination so far. Bianca Belair asserts her dominance over the competition until the arrival of entrant number eleven—Shayna Baszler. A member of Pure Fusion Collective alongside Zoey Stark, Baszler holds a record-tying 21 eliminations in past matches and wastes no time making an impact.

Baszler begins clearing the ring, but Lyra Valkyria halts her momentum with a well-placed attack. Zoey Stark recovers in time to aid her ally, and together, they double-team Lyra. They attempt to send her over the top rope, but Valkyria fights back and manages to stay in. However, Ivy Nile quickly capitalizes, tossing Lyra over the top and securing the elimination.

As Ivy Nile takes a moment to celebrate her success, the next entrant makes her way to the ring—Bayley is in at number twelve!

Bayley found herself face-to-face with IYO SKY in a tense standoff that sent the crowd into a frenzy. The two exchanged heated words, but before they could escalate the confrontation, Pure Fusion Collective struck from behind, ambushing both women.

Bayley attempted to eliminate Zoey Stark, only for Shayna Baszler to intervene and make the save. The struggle carried both Baszler and Stark onto the apron, teetering on the edge of elimination. At that moment, Sonya Deville entered the match at #13, solidifying Pure Fusion Collective’s full presence in the Rumble. Wasting no time, Deville charged into the ring, immediately targeting Bayley and IYO SKY to assist her teammates.

Bayley finds herself face-to-face with Iyo Sky, and the crowd erupts in anticipation. The two exchange words, but before anything can escalate, the Pure Fusion Collective ambushes them from behind. Bayley attempts to eliminate Zoey Stark, but Shayna Baszler rushes in to make the save. The action spills onto the apron, with both Baszler and Stark precariously hanging on as Sonya Deville enters at #13, solidifying the full presence of Pure Fusion Collective in the Royal Rumble.

Deville wastes no time, storming the ring to aid her allies, launching a coordinated assault on Bayley and Iyo Sky. With PFC in control, the tides shift momentarily as Maxxine Dupri makes her entrance at #14. Immediately, Ivy Nile confronts Dupri, shoving her. Dupri retaliates with a shove of her own, and the two lock up. Dupri gets the upper hand, executing a crisp Fisherman’s Suplex to a strong crowd reaction.

As Dupri regains her footing, she finds herself surrounded by PFC, but the babyfaces rally, leading to an all-out six-woman brawl. Dupri seizes the moment, delivering another suplex to Nile, followed by a dramatic kip-up as she plays to the crowd’s energy. She adds flair with a reverse Caterpillar into an elbow drop before finally eliminating Ivy Nile. However, her celebration is short-lived—Pure Fusion Collective quickly takes advantage, tossing Dupri over the top rope and eliminating her from the match.

With the numbers battle shifting once again, the countdown begins for the next entrant. As the buzzer sounds, Naomi makes her highly anticipated entrance at #15, marking the halfway point in the Rumble! The energy in the arena surges as the match enters its next phase.

The ring erupts into chaos as the action intensifies, with Superstars battling for survival. A helpful tracker on-screen confirms that 11 competitors remain in the match, while four eliminations have taken place so far. The pace slows momentarily, making this one of the longer stretches without a new entrant.

That changes quickly as a sudden flurry of eliminations shakes up the match—Zoey Stark, Shayna Baszler, and Sonya Deville are all tossed over the top rope in rapid succession. Just as the dust settles, the countdown begins once again. The buzzer sounds, and at #16, Jaida Parker makes her way to the ring, ready to shift the momentum!

Bianca Belair, Naomi, Jaida Parker, and Lash Legend briefly attempt to form an alliance against Chelsea Green, drawing loud boos from the crowd. Green manages to survive the onslaught and eventually eliminates Lash Legend, earning an unexpected pop. The reaction quickly shifts as fans begin to rally behind Green.

Piper Niven enters at #17, offering Green some much-needed backup. However, in a comically reckless moment, Green steps onto the apron, impatiently yelling at Piper to hurry up. Instead of capitalizing on the opening, the other Superstars stare in disbelief. Piper finally enters the ring, momentarily saving Green, who remains perched precariously on the apron as Piper begins clearing house.

Niven delivers a devastating sit-down Urinage on a charging IYO SKY and starts working with Green to take control of the match. However, Green's luck runs out when she once again steps onto the apron, only to be accidentally knocked off by Piper Niven, resulting in her elimination to a chorus of boos.

Natalya Neidhart arrives at #18, and commentary reminds the audience that she and Liv Morgan are the only two women to compete in all eight Women's Royal Rumble matches. No eliminations occur during this stretch, but anticipation builds as Jordynne Grace makes her surprise WWE debut at #19.

Jordynne Grace dominates early, mirroring her strong start from last year. She quickly eliminates Jaida Parker before setting her sights on Piper Niven, hoisting her up for a devastating Death Valley Driver. The crowd erupts into a deafening “holy shit” chant in response.

Grace then shares a heartfelt hug with Naomi, a nod to their shared history in TNA, before Bianca Belair steps in, pulling them apart. Belair attempts to eliminate Grace but quickly shifts gears as the two join forces to target Niven. Just as Grace regains her footing, Michin enters at #20, going after Niven and Natalya. Replays of Grace’s Death Valley Driver air before the match momentarily loses momentum.

Then, the energy explodes as Alexa Bliss makes her shocking return at #21, receiving the loudest ovation of the night. Donning her dark, Lily-inspired attire, Bliss wipes out everyone in her path as the crowd erupts into a thunderous “welcome back” chant. She soaks in the moment before Natalya tries to eliminate her, but Bliss manages to hang on as the countdown clock signals the next entrant.

At #22, Zelina Vega joins the chaos, attempting to eliminate Grace before opting to deliver a picture-perfect Code Red to another opponent, drawing a strong reaction. The commentary team reminds viewers of her connection to wrestling legend Amazing Red. Meanwhile, Bliss and Bayley battle in the corner until Natalya once again tries to toss Bliss out, but she clings to the ropes.

The first three entrants—Liv Morgan, Iyo Sky, and Roxanne Perez—are still hanging in as Candice LeRae enters at #23, unfortunately killing the crowd’s energy. Just as the match starts to drag, Stephanie Vaquer storms in at #24 to a huge pop, reigniting the excitement in the arena.

Stephanie V storms the ring, clearing house with dominant force until WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus enters at #25 to a thunderous ovation. Wasting no time, Trish charges at Natalya, igniting an intense exchange before taking her down with a signature Lou Thesz Press. As Stratus shifts focus to Jordynne Grace, she quickly finds herself in trouble, prompting the crowd to erupt into a "This is awesome" chant.

Trish regains control with a double bulldog on both Candice LeRae and Grace before dropping Natalya once again. However, Piper Niven halts her momentum, launching Stratus across the ring with a crushing shoulder thrust. Sensing an opportunity, Niven attempts to eliminate the Hall of Famer, but Stratus clings to the ropes, fighting her way back into the match.

Raquel Rodriguez emerges at #26, immediately coming to the aid of a battle-worn Liv Morgan, who has been in the match for a significant stretch. Rodriguez quickly asserts dominance, tossing Natalya down before leveling her with a powerful Big Boot. She follows up with a devastating powerbomb, using Liv Morgan as a weapon to slam Natalya.

With both women teetering on the apron, Morgan seizes the moment, nailing Natalya with a Code Breaker to eliminate her. Her celebration is short-lived, as Alexa Bliss ambushes her. However, Bliss’s attack backfires spectacularly when Morgan counters with a Code Red, sending Bliss over the ropes to the outside. The elimination draws massive boos from the crowd as Morgan stands tall after another impressive display.

Charlotte Flair made her highly anticipated return at entry #27 in the Women's Royal Rumble match. While she received a solid reaction from the crowd, it was notably overshadowed by Alexa Bliss’s earlier pop. As Flair made her signature, drawn-out entrance, the action in the ring slowed significantly, with many competitors resorting to working holds and filler offense to buy time.

Once inside the ring, Flair immediately began clearing house, delivering her trademark chops as the crowd responded with loud “Woo” chants. Her first minute of offense consisted of an onslaught of chops and clotheslines, embracing a simplified but effective power-based style reminiscent of Brock Lesnar. Flair quickly eliminated Michin before finding herself on the receiving end of a double-team attack from Jaida Parker and Jordynne Grace. The duo attempted a prolonged stalling suplex, but Flair countered with an impressive double DDT before kipping up to a strong reaction from the crowd.

She then turned her attention to Piper Niven, narrowly avoiding a counter before sending Niven over the top rope for another elimination. As Flair took a moment to regain her footing, the countdown began for the next entrant—NXT Women’s Champion Giulia at #28. The Japanese sensation immediately made her presence felt, launching into a relentless flurry of offense that ended with the elimination of Jordynne Grace.

With only a few competitors left to enter, the remaining Superstars engaged in an all-out slugfest. Just as the chaos reached its peak, the countdown signaled the arrival of #29—Nia Jax—setting the stage for a climactic final sequence in the match.

The match's intensity rises as Nia Jax enters the ring, causing the remaining competitors to switch up their opponents rapidly. The eliminations come fast, with Trish Stratus stepping up to challenge Jax in a valiant effort, only to be thrown out of the match.

With the countdown reaching zero, the final entrant of the night, Nikki Bella, makes her way to the ring. The crowd response is mixed as Bella enters the fray, immediately engaging with the competition. Amidst the chaos, a cluster of Superstars finds themselves battling precariously near the ropes. Jax capitalizes on the situation, eliminating Naomi and shifting the momentum in her favor.

The remaining competitors—Nia Jax, Giulia, Charlotte Flair, Bayley, Roxanne Perez, and Nikki Bella—continue the fight. Flair seizes control, clearing out several opponents before Bella lands a Spear on her. Bella then targets Giulia for elimination, but Giulia resists. In a struggle on the apron, Perez shoves Giulia off, ending her run.

Bayley is the next to go, eliminated by Bella. However, Bella’s momentum is short-lived as Jax takes her out moments later. This leaves the final three: Charlotte Flair, Nia Jax, and Roxanne Perez. The battle intensifies near the ropes until Flair manages to send Jax over the top, eliminating her.

With just two competitors left, Perez and Flair engage in a heated exchange on the apron. In the decisive moment, Flair delivers a devastating Big Boot, knocking Perez to the floor and securing the victory.

Winner: Charlotte Flair

WWE Tag Team Championship 2-out-of-3 Falls Match: #DIY(c) vs Motor City Machine Guns

Vignettes air to build anticipation for the highly awaited clash between the Motor City Machine Guns and WWE Tag Team Champions #DIY. The crowd erupts as the Motor City Machine Guns make their entrance, followed by #DIY, who receive a strong reaction from the audience. With the energy in the arena at its peak, the match is officially underway.

Chris Sabin and Tommaso Ciampa kick things off, with the Motor City Machine Guns (MCMG) gaining early momentum through quick tags and precise double-team offense. Gargano steps in briefly but is swiftly sent back out. Sabin follows up with a massive running attack to the outside, taking out the champions. Outside the ring, Sabin delivers a stiff right hand to Gargano before re-entering the ring—only to be caught by Ciampa, who plants him with a DDT.

Ciampa slows the pace, grounding Sabin with working holds to isolate him in the ring. A quick tag allows the champions to capitalize, executing efficient double-team maneuvers to keep Sabin on the defensive. Meanwhile, Wade Barrett on commentary offers insights into two-out-of-three falls matches. Alex Shelley finally tags in, just as Gargano misses a tag attempt. Unaware of the missed tag, Shelley zeroes in on Gargano, allowing Ciampa to strike with a devastating running high knee. The champions secure the first fall—#DIY leads 1-0.

Ciampa immediately locks in a neck hold on Shelley as the commentary team discusses the confusion surrounding Gargano’s fake tag, which contributed to the pinfall. This time, Gargano tags in legally, and Shelley struggles to fight off both members of #DIY. The champions maintain control, methodically wearing Shelley down. Ciampa attempts to remove Sabin from the apron, preventing a potential tag. The referee steps in to issue a warning, momentarily distracted—giving the champs an opportunity to continue their underhanded tactics.

With Shelley still trapped, Gargano soaks in the crowd’s reaction before charging at him in the corner. However, Shelley counters with a well-placed side kick, dropping Gargano. Seizing the moment, Shelley makes the hot tag to Sabin, who storms the ring with a burst of energy. He takes down Gargano with a flurry of punches, follows up with a crushing clothesline, and then delivers a running punt kick to both champions at ringside.

Sabin keeps the momentum rolling, launching himself with a springboard dive to the outside, wiping out both opponents. Back in the ring, Sabin hits a Tornado DDT on Gargano before tagging Shelley back in. The duo executes their signature Skull & Bones finisher, evening the score at 1-1. With the next fall determining the champions, the intensity reaches its peak.

The referee allows some leniency with the rules as chaos erupts between all four competitors. Tommaso Ciampa attempts to hit Project Ciampa, but Chris Sabin resists. Ciampa positions Sabin on the top turnbuckle and delivers a stiff chop before climbing to the middle rope, pulling Sabin into a backpack position. Sabin counters, slipping over Ciampa’s back, but Ciampa retaliates with a barrage of punches to the face.

The battle intensifies in the corner, with Sabin managing to trap Ciampa in a Tree of Woe. Before Sabin can capitalize, Johnny Gargano rushes in for the save. Sabin whips Gargano toward Alex Shelley, who launches Gargano into Ciampa, still hung in the corner! The Motor City Machine Guns set Ciampa up for a double-team maneuver and connect, but Gargano breaks up the pin just in time.

Both teams retreat to their respective corners, strategizing their next moves. Gargano goes for a Superkick on Sabin, but Sabin dodges, causing Gargano to accidentally strike Ciampa! The Machine Guns seize the opening and take down Gargano, gaining the momentum. However, as they go for the finish, Angelo Dawkins climbs onto the apron, distracting both the referee and the challengers. Seizing the opportunity, Montez Ford sneaks into the ring and cracks Sabin and Shelley with a crutch behind the referee’s back!

With the damage done, #DIY take advantage, covering Sabin for the third fall and securing the victory.

Winners and STILL WWE Tag Team Champions: #DIY!

After the match, The Street Profits continue their assault on #DIY. Michael Cole clarifies the situation, explaining that The Profits interfered not to help #DIY, but to ensure the champions retained—keeping their personal vendetta against them alive.

Undisputed WWE Championship Ladder Match: Cody Rhodes(c) vs Kevin Owens(c?)

Kevin Owens made his way to the arena sporting the Winged Eagle championship and his "The Canadian Dream Son of a Security Systems Technician" shirt, ribbing the champion as he arrived. The crowd offered a mixed reaction of cheers and boos. Soon after, the disputed Undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes, made his entrance. He performed his signature "whoa," eliciting an enthusiastic response from the audience. Official announcements followed before the titles were placed on display, and the bell rang at 8:20pm with the crowd buzzing with anticipation. Cody exchanged verbal jabs with Owens to start the match, and although no fists were thrown immediately, tension steadily built in the ring.

As the contest progressed, both competitors began exchanging punches. Owens took early control by stomping Rhodes into the mat and dragging him into the corner, with the action spilling outside the ring. Rhodes reached for a ladder, but Owens intercepted him on the ramp, slamming Rhodes onto it and shattering its middle support bars. The brawl quickly escalated as the action moved into the ringside area and eventually into the crowd, with both superstars using drinks from the audience as improvised weapons.

Owens retrieved a ladder from the ring and positioned it against the barricade, sending Rhodes crashing across it. The match saw a back-and-forth exchange as the fighters moved between the ring and the outside. At one point, Owens attempted to climb a ladder but was interrupted by Rhodes, who countered by sending Owens crashing against it. The battle continued by the commentary tables where Owens cleared the broadcast table, using its top cover as a weapon before constructing a makeshift bridge with another ladder into the ring. After a series of fierce exchanges, Rhodes set up his own ladder as the two traded strikes, including an exchange using a step ladder in a series of ineffective maneuvers.

At a critical juncture, Cody whipped Owens into a taller ladder, knocking it over, then reset it and climbed. Owens refused to yield and grabbed Rhodes' foot, causing a struggle on the ladder. The match persisted for over five minutes, with several ladders suffering damage during the prolonged battle. In one dramatic moment, Owens went for a Package Piledriver, only to be countered by a backdrop that sent him crashing through another ladder.

Despite the chaos, Owens maintained control for much of the encounter as debris from the fallen ladders littered the ring and surrounding areas. At 8:38pm, Owens began to ascend a ladder, only to be halted by a determined Rhodes. The two exchanged blows around the ring, with Owens even setting up a ladder as a makeshift table. As he climbed the turnbuckles, Owens declared, "I did not want to have to do this." Rhodes rallied, narrowly avoiding a potential splash, and the two battled along the turnbuckles until Owens delivered a Fisherman's Buster that sent Rhodes crashing through a ladder at 8:40pm. The arena erupted with a loud "holy shit" chant as officials, including Nick Aldis, rushed to check on Cody.

Both superstars were attended to, with Sami Zayn coming to the ringside to check on them. Wade Barrett commented, "I smell a fix. I do not like this at all." Even after initial medical attention, the match resumed as Owens cleared a ladder out of the way and moved in on Rhodes. The contest continued to captivate fans, promising more explosive action to come.

Cody regains his momentum and delivers a Cody Cutter on KO seemingly out of nowhere. The action spills outside, where the champion takes the offensive and manages to draw blood from Owens. With his fists, Cody targets the wound on KO's head, yelling at him, "that's what you want? That's what you want?" Rhodes roars at KO as he makes his way toward the ladder-bridge connecting the commentary area to the ringside apron. Owens then retaliates with a low-blow! Low-blow right in Cody's Rhodes!

KO searches for an opportunity to execute a Package Piledriver on the commentary table, but Cody counters by hitting an Alabama Slam through the ladder onto the unforgiving floor, leaving Kevin Owens down. Without hesitation, Cody repositions the ladder and climbs with unwavering determination, reaching the belts at 8:44pm. With KO incapacitated, Cody removes his title. Cody then takes away the Smoking Skull belt and secures the win. Cody's status as the Undisputed champion is no longer under dispute. WHOA-OH!

Your Winner AND STILL Undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes!

Men's 2025 Royal Rumble Match

In a spectacular start to the Royal Rumble, Rey Mysterio made his entrance as the first competitor, receiving a warm welcome from the Indianapolis crowd. The veteran cruiserweight, whose first Rumble was in 2003 and who famously entered at number two in 2006 to win the match, took the stage with his signature style. Moments later, Penta made his way into the ring as the second entrant. The arena erupted when the two exchanged a respectful handshake; Rey extended his hand and Penta responded, shouting "I am sorry" before rallying the crowd with "Cero Miedo." The mutual respect quickly gave way to an all-out brawl. Penta nearly eliminated Rey immediately, but a timely counterattack from Rey set the stage for a fierce showdown.

The conflict escalated as Chad Gable entered and exchanged blows with both Penta and Rey. Gable attempted to eliminate his opponents while the superstars demonstrated impressive resilience and teamwork. A dramatic turn occurred when Carmelo Hayes entered, seizing control by shoving Rey and delivering a reverse DDT. Temporary alliances formed as Gable and Hayes targeted Rey and Penta with well-coordinated maneuvers, including a beautiful German Suplex by Gable that drew comparisons to wrestling legends. Santos Escobar then made his entrance, intensifying the chaos as all five active superstars began to exchange impactful blows that left the crowd in awe.

Energy in the ring surged when Otis entered with a display of athleticism, immediately executing a single-handed chokeslam on Escobar. A rivalry with Chad Gable quickly developed as Otis absorbed and returned punishment with a colossal German Suplex and the impressive Torture Rack. Intercontinental Champion Bronn Breakker burst into the action next, making a resounding impact by eliminating Hayes with a Frankeinsteiner on Rey, then posting up in the corner to spear Penta, much to the delight of the audience. The elimination of Santos Escobar soon followed, deepening the in-ring turmoil.

As the match unfolded, additional superstars arrived and left their mark on the event. Akira Tozawa, followed by a surprise replacement in ISHOWSPEED after an on-ramp attack, added to the chaotic narrative. Sheamus briefly took control with a methodical assault on multiple competitors, and Jimmy Uso entered with acrobatic moves inspired by his father, Rikishi. Andrade made a swift appearance before Jacob Fatu, the Samoan Werewolf, dominated with a series of power moves including a double Samoan Drop that eliminated both Rey Mysterio and Andrade. Ludwig Kaiser attempted to steady the match but was immediately eliminated, setting the stage for The Miz to make his sixteenth appearance and engage in an intense exchange with both Penta and Jacob Fatu.

The pace continued to quicken as TNA Wrestling Champion Joe Hendry arrived, delivering successive clotheslines and chokeslams that briefly shifted the momentum. However, his efforts were thwarted by Jacob Fatu, whose actions drew a resounding reaction from Sheamus. Then, Roman Reigns made his long-awaited entrance to a roaring crowd, accompanied by Paul Heyman. The Tribal Chief embarked on a relentless warpath, eliminating The Miz and Sheamus with powerful spears. Despite moments of resistance from Joe Hendry and Bron Breakker, Reigns maintained his dominance, setting up what many anticipated to be a future WrestleMania main event when he squared off with Jacob Fatu.

The intensity reached new heights with Drew McIntyre entering the ring, declaring that the conflict initiated by Reigns would ultimately be his undoing. A fierce battle ensued between McIntyre, Fatu, and later Finn Balor, whose mysterious music entry added an extra layer of intrigue. Penta and Balor engaged in a tense duel that culminated in Balor eliminating Penta with a sudden Mexican Destroyer. Soon after, Jey Uso made a grand entrance to a deafening ovation and quickly began exchanging high-impact moves with United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura, who was ultimately eliminated following a series of rapid strikes.

AJ Styles then arrived with no hint of rust, delivering precise strikes including a Pele Kick that sent shockwaves through the arena. He proceeded to dismantle opponents with his trademark intensity, only to be met by resistance from Drew McIntyre and Jacob Fatu. Braun Strowman followed with an imposing presence, igniting a fierce confrontation with Fatu that ended with Fatu being eliminated after a series of brutal exchanges that saw him vent his fury on the commentary area.

John Cena then made his electrifying entrance to an eruption of cheers. His presence heralded a renewed focus in the match as he engaged Braun Strowman and later clashed with Roman Reigns. CM Punk also entered the fray, creating an atmosphere of tense anticipation as he locked eyes with both Cena and Reigns. After a moment of suspenseful standoffs, Seth Rollins arrived and immediately engaged Punk, intensifying the chaotic exchange. Dominik Mysterio followed with a slow, deliberate entrance marked by unfamiliar music, attacking Cena upon arrival.

Sami Zayn and Damian Priest continued the spectacle with dramatic interventions; Priest executed his own version of a classic Old School move on Dominik, leading to the elimination of Mysterio. LA Knight then emerged, engaging in heated exchanges with Cena, AJ Styles, and Jey Uso, and ultimately establishing control with a decisive slam. As the match entered its final phase, Sami Zayn was eliminated after a series of miscommunications, while the remaining competitors—Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins, and CM Punk—engaged in memorable skirmishes. A particularly tense moment unfolded between Rollins and Reigns, featuring off-mic taunts such as "You understand? You ain't getting another WrestleMania main event," before the action escalated further.

In the ultimate showdown, John Cena, Jey Uso, and Logan Paul emerged as the final competitors. An intense brawl between Logan Paul and Jey Uso unfolded to the delight of the crowd, with every high-impact move drawing thunderous cheers. After a series of dramatic sequences that featured Cena delivering his iconic "You cannot see me" moment, Jey Uso managed to eliminate Cena with a decisive sequence of strikes.
