Moreover, the numbers themselves indicate that the fans are ready to rumble and witness this historic show.

The biggest highlight of the show each year has been the 30-person Royal Rumble match for the Men’s and Women’s sides. The winner of the match receives a championship match in the main event of WrestleMania, an opportunity that has cemented the legacies of many future stars.

Some of the superstars announced for the Rumble matches include Seth Rollins, Bobby Lashley, Rhea Ripley, Shayna Baszler, and Drew McIntyre. Moreover, the rumble match will also see the return of the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes after being on the shelf for nearly seven months.

Apart from that, the event will feature the new and mysterious ‘Pitch Black’ match between Bray Wyatt and LA Knight and Alexa Bliss battling Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s championship. Finally, Roman Reigns will defend his Undisputed WWE Universal championship against Kevin Owens.

The stacked match card has surely got the fans excited to be in attendance at the Alamodome, with numbers already indicating its success. According to Wrestletix, the event has sold out nearly 40K tickets, which may increase as the show approaches.
