The WWE Royal Rumble 2023 event is set to take place this Saturday, but what is the current plan for the main event match?
According to a new report/rumor from @WrestlingBlog_, the 30-Man Royal Rumble match itself is currently scheduled to be the main event bout.
“According to my source as of today the main event for the Royal rumble is the men’s rumble match, and the opening match for the PPV is Roman vs Kevin, there’s two meetings left’s for the rumble tomorrow, and Thursday the opening match can change 100% or it might not change at all.”
WWE Royal Rumble 2023 Rumors Main Event
It’s worth noting that this rumor from @WrestlingBlog_ is just that, a rumor, as we are unable to verify whether or not the report is legitimate at this time.
With the Men’s Rumble match apparently set to be taking place in the main event slot of the night, that could certainly make a difference when it comes to the potential return of The Rock.
From what we have been told, Dwayne Johnson is expected to be appearing at some point in the night, and if Roman vs Owens is going first then it seems odd to have him appear after that match rather than in the Rumble itself.
