“In February 2027, WWE will bring one of its biggest annual events to Arizona, the Royal Rumble. I can tell you this: WWE has a very passionate global fanbase, and we’re looking forward to bringing that buzz and economic impact here to Arizona,” he said.

Roman Reigns defeated Seth Rollins in the main event of SummerSlam 2026 to retain the World Heavyweight Championship. The OTC was confronted by LA Knight during last night’s episode of RAW, and The Megastar made it known that he wanted a shot at the title.

In the main event of last night’s RAW, The Bloodline’s Jacob Fatu defeated Royce Keys and brutally attacked him in the ring as Roman Reigns watched on with a smile on his face. AAA General Manager Rey Mysterio approached Reigns backstage following last night’s show and suggested that he had an offer for The Tribal Chief.

Major WWE policy criticized by veteran

Wrestling veteran Dave Meltzer recently criticized the promotion for Ryan Garcia’s appearance on RAW.

The controversial boxer attacked Joe Hendry and posed with The Judgment Day earlier this month on the red brand. Garcia is scheduled to box Conor Benn on Saturday, September 12, 2026, at a Zuffa Boxing event.

Speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer suggested that the promotion would put anyone on television as long as they were not in prison.

“If you’re not in jail you’re fair game for WWE. It’s fine. It’s a consistent policy. There was outrage to it but if that guy would’ve been on AEW there would’ve been 10 times the outrage. I really am starting to think that the outrage stuff is tribal,” he said. (H/T: WONF4W on X)

It will be fascinating to see which stars win the Men’s and Women’s Royal Rumble matches next year to earn a title shot at WrestleMania 43.
