Live Coverage.

• Joe Tessitore interviewed Kevin Owens ahead of his title challenge against Cody Rhodes on the 2025 Royal Rumble, with Tessitore for not getting Owens's perspective on this situation before asking him to explain what his issues were at this moment. Owens said he took Umbridge with everyone overlooking him by saying they would face Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41. Owens then told Tessitore he would defeat Rhodes tomorrow at the Royal Rumble before telling him he could shove his apology up his ass; however, CM Punk interrupted Owens. Punk first apologized to Owens for interrupting him as he understood how that felt before apologizing to him for overlooking him when speaking with Cody Rhodes before saying he would be interested in a main event of Kevin Owens against CM Punk at WrestleMania. Owens said he liked the idea of beating Punk's ass at WrestleMania, but then said he felt a fuzzy feeling about Punk never main eventing WrestleMania and being miserable. Punk then responded by saying that, unlike Owens, he did not lose five title matches in the Royal Rumble events nor had he lost against Logan Paul before telling Owens to get in the ring to get his ass beat. Owens then dropped off the apron and left.

LA Knight made the save for Priest, laying out The Bloodline before challenging them to a match.
• Legado del Fantasma (Santos Escobar & Elektra Lopez) spoke with Los Garza (Angel & Berto), with Escobar telling Los Garza to keep an eye on The Motor City Machine Guns.
