Michelle was initially excluded from Rumble

In the 2023 Royal Rumble match, Michelle McCool was initially not called to participate. However, it appears that the WWE Universe helped her get that opportunity as they have been clamoring for her appearance given that the premium live event went down from her home state of Texas. Since this was a last-minute call, she also didn’t have a lot of time to get ready for The Rumble.

Michelle McCool took to Twitter to thank the fans for their support. She clearly mentioned that it was because of their efforts that she got to enter the Rumble in the first place. She also pointed out that she initially didn’t get the invitation from the WWE,

“Real talk….thank YOU @WWEUniverse !Y’all legit did this and I love you for it!I’ve never felt so loved💙Because of y’alls messages to @wwe & @TripleH the last 2 weeks, I got the call…9 days before the Rumble(I wasn’t lying when I told y’all I hadn’t gotten the call yet)🤣💙.”
