It’s time to punch a ticket to WrestleMania.
The 2025 Royal Rumble will officially kick off the road to WrestleMania, as the iconic first premium live event of the year takes place Saturday. The night is headlined by the men’s and women’s Royal Rumble matches, which each will have 30 entrants enter the ring and the winner will be guaranteed a championship opportunity at WrestleMania 41 in April, a potentially career-altering opportunity.
That won’t be all happening either; the WWE Tag Team Championships will be on the card in a two-out-of-three-falls match, and Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens will again take their heated rivalry into another Undisputed WWE Championship bout.
WrestleMania 41 is more than 75 days away, but the extravagant event is about to take shape, starting what is the biggest time period in WWE.
