WWE Royal Rumble 2022 will take place on January 29th, with Roman Reigns facing Seth Rollins. This article will provide you with an introduction to the history and rules of the Royal Rumble, as well as predictions for this year's event.
This three-page document is a lapsed fan's guide to the 2022 WWE Royal Rumble, scheduled for Saturday night, January 29, 2022, at The Dome at America's Center in St. Louis. It is written as an FAQ for fans who have not watched since Survivor Series in November or WrestleMania 37, and also serves as a refresher for regular viewers.
The guide explains four reasons for the Royal Rumble's lasting appeal: its timed-interval structure designed by Pat Patterson, the role of entrance music, the over-the-top-rope means of victory, and the storylines within the storyline. It then covers Johnny Knoxville's declared entry to promote "Jackass Forever," his feud with Sami Zayn, and the men's Rumble contenders, including former winners Sheamus, Rey Mysterio and Randy Orton, Big E, Kevin Owens, AJ Styles, and the possible favorite Brock Lesnar, who won the WWE championship at the "Day 1" event on January 1. It closes with a scenario in which Lesnar loses to Bobby Lashley earlier in the night and enters the Rumble to earn a WrestleMania title shot.
