Roman Reigns, through Paul Heyman, has declared for the 2025 men's Royal Rumble.
Heyman opened the January 10th episode of WWE SmackDown, calling out Cody Rhodes saying Roman wanted his Undisputed WWE Championship back, and that he would enter the Royal Rumble to get it.
This will mark the first time Roman will compete in the Royal Rumble match since 2020. He has entered the last four WWE Royal Rumble events as the WWE Universal/Undisputed WWE Champion.
