WWE News: Huge Return Expected at Greatest Royal Rumble
Apr 27, 2018 at 3:59 PM
The match card of the Greatest Royal Rumble show has shaped up to be one of the very best in the WWE history.
The who’s who names of the company are coming back to in-ring competition to make this night a grand success. Owing to the latest deal signed between WWE and the Saudi Arabia sports authority, the biggest pro-wrestling promotion is hosting an entertaining night on April 27th.
Chris Jericho, who is a non-WWE superstar right now is appearing on the show. It is supposed to be a one-off appearance from the veteran superstar to entertain the crowd. He is all set to share the ring with 49 other superstars in the battle royal match.
With that being said, another such performer might return for one-night-only at the Greatest Royal Rumble show. According to the reports of PWInsider.com, Rey Mysterio might be making his comeback to the WWE Network-special show.
For now, he has not signed any contract with the WWE which is why there’s no way that the former world champion will stay beyond the night.
We have never forgotten the reception that Rey Mysterio received during the Royal Rumble return, this year. His entry at number 27 was the most successful one on that night. Going forward, WWE was interested in signing him back for one last stint but he was not willing to perform in WWE’s rigorous schedule. It is the reason why the deal might not have finalized, till date.
