According to WWE, there are only 23 officially announced participants in today’s Greatest Royal Rumble match. This leaves 27 entrants still to be named (math credit: Scott Steiner).

Here are the officially announced participants:

  1. Daniel Bryan
  2. Braun Strowman
  3. Kurt Angle
  4. Shane McMahon
  5. Chris Jericho
  6. Mark Henry
  7. Rey Mysterio
  8. Elias
  9. Kevin Owens
  10. The Great Khali
  11. Bobby Roode
  12. Baron Corbin
  13. Big E
  14. Kofi Kingston
  15. Xavier Woods
  16. Apollo Crews
  17. Shelton Benjamin
  18. Sin Cara
  19. Chad Gable
  20. Goldust
  21. Titus O’Neil
  22. Mojo Rawley
  23. Dolph Ziggler


There are 24 wrestlers competing on the card but not in the Rumble match itself. Additionally, Hornswoggle and Shawn Daivari have been spotted in Saudi Arabia. Even if all of those names are in the Rumble match as well, it still leaves one spot open. This could be covered by Sunil Singh who presumably has traveled to Jeddah in order to be in Jinder Mahal’s corner for his match against Jeff Hardy.

Jerry Lawler insinuated on his podcast that he would like to be included in the match. He also mentioned he is on WWE’s “No Touch” list as well, however. This fact makes it unlikely he is included in the Rumble today.

Other members of WWE’s extended roster, backstage producers/agents, commentators, and even Vince McMahon himself could possibly be entrants today.
