WWE Royal Rumble 2017 Live Stream: Watch Online
By Carl Gac
We take a look at how you can watch WWE Royal Rumble 2017.
The Royal Rumble is one of the most anticipated events of the year in the WWE calendar. The Royal Rumble match is the one match where 30 men are afforded the chance to win a spot in the main event of WrestleMania.
The field for the Royal Rumble match will be one of the most star-studded in the history of the match. Amongst the favorites for the match, we have Goldberg, Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker, whilst we have the potential for surprise entrants including Finn Balor, Samoa Joe, Kurt Angle and Tye Dillinger.
In title matches on the show, the WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens will defend in a NO DQ match against Roman Reigns. The caveat to the match will see Owens’ best friend Chris Jericho placed inside a shark cage and positioned in the air above the ring, to stop him from interfering in the outcome of the match.
The WWE Champion AJ Styles goes one on one with John Cena with his title on the line. WWE Raw Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair will face Bayley. Cruiserweight Champion Rich Swann will battle number one contender Neville with his title on the line.
On the pre-show, we will see three further matches. Sheamus and Cesaro will defend their Raw Tag Team titles against the pairing of Gallows and Anderson. Nia Jax will face Sasha Banks and a six-woman tag team match will showcase the biggest female stars from SmackDown Live, Becky Lynch, Nikki Bella and Naomi will face Alexa Bliss, Mickie James and Natalya.
