How Real Is WWE's Royal Rumble?

Since 1988, the Royal Rumble has been an annual event and match type for WWE. The match usually consists of 30 wrestlers. Two wrestlers start the match with a new wrestler being added every 90-120 seconds. Eliminations occur when a wrestler is thrown over the top rope with both feet hitting the ground. Once 29 wrestlers have been eliminated, the last person standing is declared the winner and will move on to challenge a champion of their choosing at WrestleMania.

As with all WWE Premium Events, it can be viewed on the WWE Network or Peacock. In the United States, all WWE Premium Events now air on Peacock's streaming service which purchased the content from the WWE Network in early 2021.

Outside of the United States, the Royal Rumble will air on the WWE Network.

The event takes place on January 29th, 2022. It will begin airing at 8 PM ET with a pre-show starting at 7 PM ET.
