The historic first-ever 50-Man Greatest Royal Rumble Match
It’s a contest 30 years in the making. The historic Greatest Royal Rumble will feature the first-ever 50-Man Greatest Royal Rumble Match, the crown jewel of a signature event taking place at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Friday, April 27.

In an epic free-for-all that will redefine the very notion of ring reinforcement, 50 WWE Superstars will battle for squared-circle immortality. A grand tradition dating back to 1988, the Royal Rumble Match begins with two participants, with a new Superstar throwing himself into the mix after a predetermined time interval has passed. Additional competitors will continue to emerge until number 50 has officially entered the bout. Elimination can happen at any time during the contest and can only take place when a Superstar has been thrown over the top rope and both of his feet hit the floor. The last Superstar left in the ring will be declared the victor.

So far, 18 Superstars are confirmed for this colossal showdown:

Daniel Bryan
Braun Strowman
Big Show
Kurt Angle
Chris Jericho
Elias
Baron Corbin
Big E
Kofi Kingston
Xavier Woods
Apollo Crews
Shelton Benjamin
Sin Cara
Chad Gable
Goldust
Titus O’Neil
Mojo Rawley
Dolph Ziggler


The Greatest Royal Rumble will come to the WWE Universe from the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Friday, April 27, at 7 p.m. AST. Tickets will be available Friday, April 13, with additional purchase details forthcoming.

Don’t miss what could become the most incredible Royal Rumble Match in history. Find out who will stand tall on Friday, April 27. The Greatest Royal Rumble will stream live on WWE Network and be available on pay-per-view outside of the Middle East with regional broadcast information forthcoming.

RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA and STAMFORD, Conn. — WWE Superstars Daniel Bryan, Kane, Big Show, Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt are the first of 50 Superstars to officially enter the Greatest Royal Rumble Match, which will take place at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Friday, April 27, at 7 p.m. AST.

Wish thus was a month or two later and they could give the winner of this rumble a summerslam title shot or something but that's more build that mania gets for a rumble winner at this point. Just feel like they could give this to anyone since there's no meaning behind it but oh well.

I saw somewhere it's basically just the Andre the Giant Memorial battle royal and they will just get a trophy.

I think with the hype this is getting they should totally get a SummerSlam main event.
