Brock Lesnar will be part of the WWE Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia.
Brock Lesnar has not been seen in WWE since Survivor Series: WarGames, where he teamed up with The Vision and Drew McIntyre to defeat Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and The Usos.
That’s about to change, as the Beast Incarnate made a surprise appearance on The Pat McAfee Show and announced he’s heading to Saudi Arabia for the 2025 Royal Rumble. Being on McAfee’s show was apparently a surprise for everyone, including Lesnar himself, as he called to speak to the host, only to be put on camera.
During the brief conversation, Lesnar declared that he would not only be in the Rumble but also plans to win it.
“I’m in the Royal Rumble, boys, I’m gonna win it!”
When asked if he was good to go, having been out of action for several months now, Lesnar confirmed that he’s “in shape” and ready to “do it.”

The announcement comes on the same day that Triple H promised fans “a lot of surprises” during the Royal Rumble, and touted it as the most star-studded Rumble he can recall.
