The 3 biggest surprises from the 2025 WWE Royal Rumble

BBG News

The WWE is now en route to WrestleMania 41, following the conclusion of the 2025 Royal Rumble. Charlotte Flair and Jey Uso emerged victorious in this year’s event, earning title matches at the upcoming show of their preference. This annual spectacle was shrouded in excitement, and it certainly lived up to expectations with a number of significant twists. Here are the top three unexpected moments from the 2025 installment of the Royal Rumble.

Alexa Bliss Returns After Two Years

Last time Alexa Bliss was spotted was at the 2023 Royal Rumble, where she suffered a swift defeat by Bianca Belair in under eight minutes. After taking some time off for maternity leave, fans eagerly awaited her comeback. There were whispers that she might appear at this year’s event, but no concrete news emerged from reputable sources.

Indeed, that prediction proved accurate as Bliss reemerged in the 21st spot during the Rumble. The crowd erupted with enthusiasm upon her arrival, and it was clear that Bliss was battling back emotions on her way to the ring. Her coat bore a touching tribute to Bray Wyatt, a fellow performer she had shared screen time with before departing, as well as in memory of his unfortunate demise. With her return, the women’s division gains a prominent figure at a critical juncture when both Monday Night Raw and SmackDown could benefit from added excitement.

AJ Styles Comes Back From Injury

AJ Styles is waging a tough fight against the relentless march of time, a battle which eventually claims victory from all contenders. Yet, surprising many who thought his recent injury might keep him sidelined for a whole year, he made a comeback during the Royal Rumble. Now, just when the marquee event seems overly populated with competitors, here comes AJ Styles, defying expectations and making his return.

It’s intriguing to speculate about AJ Styles’ future trajectory. Given that Logan Paul knocked him out of the Rumble, it might be exciting if he pursues a rematch against him. However, considering his long-term stint in the main event with Cody Rhodes, it seems unlikely for him to jump back into that role immediately. Shuffling him to Raw through the transfer window could present fresh opportunities. An even more intriguing scenario arises if we consider the collaboration between TNA Wrestling and WWE. This partnership could offer AJ Styles a captivating run in TNA, adding depth to his career finale.

Nikki Bella Returns To WWE

It was speculated that Nikki Bella would make a surprise comeback to WWE at the last moment, which turned out to be true during the event. Previously, it seemed neither of the Bella twins would return to WWE. But, surprisingly, Nikki entered the Rumble match in the 30th spot and eliminated Bayley, creating a significant moment in the competition. It remains unclear if Nikki will stay for an extended period, but she could potentially make a difference and attract attention in a women’s division that is currently seeking it.
