Overview
The Royal Rumble is always a fun night because you never know who is going to return. Legends come back, new stars debut, and even some celebrities partake in the match. There have been some wild moments that happened during these matches, so every year this is a must-see event. Plus, Bray Wyatt’s return to the ring adds so much more excitement to the show.
While Wyatt has been wrestling a few house shows for WWE lately, he hasn’t competed in a televised match since April of 2021. His match against LA Knight is going to be a Pitch Black match. WWE has never done this type of match before, but I think it’s safe to assume that they are just going to be fighting in the dark. I’m nervous about this match because I’m just not sure how WWE can make two people wrestle in the dark entertaining.
