WWE Greatest Royal Rumble 2018 Match Card: Triple H, John Cena, Undertaker And More

Who's the greatest?

11 Comments

The 50-man Royal Rumble match is coming to the WWE Network on Friday, April 27 for Greatest Royal Rumble. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia will host it, which means it will have a special air time--one that's much earlier than usual in North America. There are seven title matches, none of which are women's titles, in addition to the largest over-the-top-rope battle royal match in the company's history, so this will be a packed show. You can check out live coverage of the event right now.

The card for the show is starting to come together, with new matches being added to the event over the course of the next two weeks. If you're wondering why there aren't any women's matches on the card it's because of the country's extremely conservative views, and women can attend the show but cannot wrestle.

Now Playing: Greatest Royal Rumble: Why There Are No Women's Matches

Because of the time difference, the show will air in North America at 12 PM ET / 9 AM PT with a Kickoff show on the network starting one hour prior, as the show begins in Saudi Arabia at 5 PM BST / 7 PM AST. As of this writing, there's no clear indication of how long the show will be, but advertisements for it have said all the major WWE titles--minus the two women's ones--will be on the line, so expect this to be a longer event.

No Caption Provided

The main event of the evening will be the Greatest Royal Rumble match, a Royal Rumble consisting of 50 wrestlers. Prior to this event, the 2011 40-man Royal Rumble was the only Rumble to have more than 30 superstars involved. We'll keep you updated when new matches are added to the card. As of now, there are seven confirmed matches for it.
