'Greatest Royal Rumble’ Coming in April, But Will It Be on the WWE Network?

The WWE is setting its sights on bringing the product to Saudi Arabia in a new event being called the Greatest Royal Rumble on Friday, April 27. The show, which will include a 50-man Royal Rumble (the largest in WWE history) and is a part of a 10-year partnership with the Saudi General Sports Authority.

“The Greatest Royal Rumble will be a spectacle of historic proportions,” said Vince McMahon, WWE Chairman & CEO in a press release. “Our partnership with the Saudi General Sports Authority reflects a long-term commitment to present WWE’s world-class entertainment to a global audience on a grander scale than ever before.”

John Cena, Triple H, Roman Reigns, AJ Styles, Braun Strowman, The New Day, Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt and Shinsuke Nakamura are set to appear on the show, but haven’t been confirmed as participants in the Greatest Royal Rumble match.

Tickets and broadcast information will be made available in the coming weeks but one WWE Superstar may have spilled the beans on whether fans have the chance to watch the event on the WWE Network.

Speaking on the Jim Norton and Sam Roberts Sirius XM show, Roman Reigns revealed what he knew about the Greatest Royal Rumble . "Hopefully I'm not giving spoilers here," Reigns said. "But I believe it's going to be a huge Network special."  

It’s possible Reigns is mistaken about the Greatest Royal Rumble coming to the WWE Network, but with the event a little more than a month away, it’s likely WWE will release official information very soon.
