The conversation around the Women’s Royal Rumble just shifted in a big way — and the real story now isn’t just about Sol Ruca anymore.
A new update from WrestleVotes Radio via Fightful Select confirms that WWE has internally discussed multiple names for potential inclusion in the Women’s Royal Rumble match, not just one. According to the report, Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, and AAA standout Mr. Iguana have all been talked about internally when it comes to possible Rumble spots.
That doesn’t mean any of them are confirmed for the match but it does mean their names are actively being brought up behind the scenes, which is usually the first real indicator that WWE is at least considering them for a moment on one of the biggest stages of the year.
The original report from PWInsider noted that there has been meaningful internal discussion about Sol Ruca potentially being used in the Women’s Royal Rumble — not fan chatter, not online speculation, but real conversation backstage. The new update expands that scope, making it clear that Ruca isn’t the only name on the table.
As WrestleVotes explained in their update, none of the three names have been locked in yet, and WWE is still keeping final Rumble plans close to the vest.
That uncertainty is very much by design. Triple H recently addressed the core identity of the Royal Rumble during an ESPN appearance, making it clear that unpredictability is the entire point of the match.
“The Royal Rumble is one of those events that’s amazing to see, because every couple of minutes there is a new entrant that enters into the fray… you’re getting constantly surprised by who is next.”
“There’s a lot of surprises in store.”
This is exactly why reports like this matter. WWE doesn’t usually allow names to circulate internally without at least exploring creative possibilities. For Sol Ruca, it would be a chance to introduce a rising talent to a massive audience. For Lola Vice, it would be another step in WWE showcasing crossover appeal.
Do you want to see Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, or Mr. Iguana get surprise spots in the Royal Rumble, or should WWE stick to more established names instead?
