Folks, it’s that time of year again! The Royal Rumble is upon us, which means 60 superstars are about to engage in the most chaotic, over-the-top-rope action WWE has to offer. And this year, we’ve got some big names—both from the past and the future—set to be in attendance at Lucas Oil Stadium on February 1.
Hall of Famers: The Legends Are Coming (And Maybe Entering?)
According to PWInsider Elite, The Undertaker and Kurt Angle will be in the building. Now, will they actually wrestle? Probably not. But let’s be real—the second the lights go out, we’re all bracing for a Taker return, no matter how many times he’s “retired.”
There’s also talk of X-Pac being backstage, because nothing says “Royal Rumble” like a potential D-Generation X-style run-in. And let’s not forget the mysterious presence of WWE LFG coaches, because nothing fuels Rumble speculation like “unnamed individuals with wrestling experience.”
The Next Generation: Nepotism or Destiny? You Decide.
On the future stars side, WWE is rolling out the red carpet for some wrestling royalty offspring:
✅ Brock Rechsteiner (Scott Steiner’s son) – If he’s got even half the energy of Big Poppa Pump, expect a Rumble promo involving mathematical probabilities, genetics, and the potential dangers of steroids.
✅ Jacob Henry (Mark Henry’s son) – The son of the World’s Strongest Man is here. Which means WWE is one step closer to a second generation of Hall of Pain.
✅ A boatload of NXT talent – WWE has reportedly flown in Stephanie Vaquer, Roxanne Perez, Jaida Parker, and Lash Legend to Indianapolis. Four young stars + 30 available Rumble spots? The math adds up.
Final Thoughts
With a mix of Hall of Famers, rising stars, and possible surprises, Royal Rumble 2025 is shaping up to be another absolute spectacle. Will The Undertaker show up just to stare menacingly at someone? Maybe. Will Kurt Angle start suplexing people out of nowhere? We hope so. And will one of these new recruits get the “shocking” debut spot that WWE always pretends wasn’t leaked online? You bet.
