Several News from WWE Royal Rumble 2025, Last-Minute Changes, Notable Appearances – The WWE Royal Rumble 2025 premium live event at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis brought plenty of behind-the-scenes developments, from unexpected changes to key production details.

One major shift involved Becky Lynch, who was not originally planned for the event and wasn’t even in town. Meanwhile, Charlotte Flair was set to win the Royal Rumble as of the previous week, with plans for her to challenge Tiffany Stratton at WrestleMania.

On his return at the Rumble, Angelo Dawkins was seen moving backstage on crutches, providing some comedic relief throughout the day. Fans also spotted AJ Styles and Nikki Bella around town during Royal Rumble weekend, leading to speculation about their potential involvement.

Jordynne Grace’s entry into the women’s Royal Rumble came together quickly. She arrived in Indianapolis by Thursday, and her participation was confirmed shortly after her TNA contract expired. AJ Lee, despite ongoing speculation about a WWE return, was never planned for this event. However, she reportedly has the option to come back whenever she chooses.

Corey Brennan reported that Nia Jax was originally supposed to have more eliminations in the women’s Rumble than she did. WWE’s partnership with COSM was also considered a success, further strengthening the company’s expansion into new media.

Bron Breakker’s spear on IShowSpeed received a strong reaction backstage, with many impressed by the execution. While they didn’t appear on the show, several WWE talents were in town, including New Day, Omos, Gigi Dolin, Carlito, Blair Davenport, and Trick Williams. New Day and Carlito also participated in WWE 2K media events.

Several WWE veterans were present behind the scenes, including Shawn Michaels, Terry Taylor, Steve Corino, and Matt Bloom.

Regarding Alexa Bliss, some speculated that her late addition to the Rumble influenced the release of new merchandise, but WWE reportedly had always planned for her return. Bliss remained under contract and was expected back sooner rather than later.

The women’s Royal Rumble match underwent extensive rehearsals on both Friday and Saturday, whereas the men’s match had less structured preparation. Standout performances from Roxanne Perez, Liv Morgan, and IYO Sky earned them praise from WWE officials for their endurance and in-ring efforts.

Production-wise, entrance timing was reportedly looser than usual, likely due to the long entrance ramp and adjustments to production logistics. Michael Hayes was backstage contributing to the show’s overall layout.

The producers for the women’s Royal Rumble match were Petey Williams, TJ Wilson, and Kenny Dykstra, while Shane Helms handled production duties for the men’s Rumble.

With WrestleMania season now in full swing, these backstage details provide insight into WWE’s evolving plans heading into the biggest event of the year.
