Linkin Park’s “Heavy Is The Crown” Named as Royal Rumble 2026 Theme Song

The Royal Rumble just got its anthem — and it hits hard.

Triple H took to Twitter on January 25, 2026, to announce that “Heavy Is The Crown” by Linkin Park will serve as the official theme song for this year’s Royal Rumble event in Riyadh. With the Road to WrestleMania kicking off in less than a week, WWE’s soundtrack is now locked in.

“The Road to #WrestleMania starts in less than a week... and @linkinpark brings the soundtrack,” Triple H posted. “‘Heavy Is The Crown’ by Linkin Park is an Official Theme Song of #RoyalRumble.”

The Royal Rumble lineup is already loaded with top names from both brands — Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa, Cody Rhodes, Rhea Ripley, Giulia, Charlotte Flair, and more. But this Linkin Park collaboration adds another layer of energy to the mix, bringing a dramatic, cinematic edge to one of WWE’s biggest nights of the year.

WWE has long used music to build hype, and this is another power move tying together emotion, legacy, and momentum — just in time for chaos in Saudi Arabia.
