As you can see, there will be several other comebacks expected at the Greatest Royal Rumble night, considering how big the night is going to be. Most of the bigger names on the roster will be involved in singles competitions on the card. Hence, the mid-card superstars will not be able to hype up the battle royal and that's why pleasant surprises are definitely needed to make it worth the watch.
The Greatest Royal Rumble event has certainly shaped up to be the Wrestlemania 2.0 for the year 2018. Except for the biggest event of the year, we can barely see such a strong lineup. All the marquee names from the WWE roster have been confirmed to appear on the show, whereas there would be several returns to make the night even more interesting. It is confirmed to be aired on the WWE Network as well.
Seven championship matches have been confirmed on this upcoming night on April 27th. One of them would be the rematch between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar inside a steel cage. Only, the women’s titles have been spared since there are certain restrictions on female wrestling in Saudi Arabia, the venue of the Greatest Royal Rumble.
Even apart from the championship matches, we will witness John Cena battling Triple H after eight years. Also, The Undertaker will feature in a Casket Match against Rusev. But, above all of them, the Greatest Royal Rumble match itself is going to the biggest wrestling match ever in the company’s history.
