The 2025 Royal Rumble takes place on Saturday, February 1 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana. There will be 30 entrants in this year’s version of the Royal Rumble and 15 of the wrestlers have already been named. The wrestlers named so far include: John Cena, CM Punk, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, LA Knight, Jey Uso, Rey Mysterio, Sami Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura, Logan Paul, Penta, Chad Gable, Bron Breakker, Carmelo Hayes.

With 15 spots still available, Bookies.com oddsmaker Adam Thompson has delivered us hypothetical sports betting odds at who could enter the Royal Rumble. Keep in mind that more than one of the wrestlers on this list may join the Royal Rumble, which is why the odds are tighter than if only one person was joining. Take a look at the hypothetical odds that Thompson has put together below.

Surprise Entrants

Here is a closer look at some of the wrestlers who could be a surprise entrant in this year’s Royal Rumble.

⚡AJ Styles -200

AJ Styles has been out with an injury since last fall, but there have been rumors he could soon return to the ring. If he’s cleared to compete, the Royal Rumble makes a lot of sense for his return to competition.

⚡Randy Orton -105

Orton has also been out since the fall, but he may soon be ready to return to the WWE ring. What better way for Orton to make his return than to join the Royal Rumble field?

⚡Pat McAfee +400

McAfee is synonymous with Indianapolis sports. The former punter for the Indianapolis Colts hosts the Pat McAfee show on ESPN and has competed for WWE in the past. Given where the event is this weekend, it makes sense that McAfee would jump into the Royal Rumble, too.

⚡The Rock +450

The Rock is still one of the most popular professional wrestlers of all time, so even though the Royal Rumble is already star-studded, an appearance from The People’s Champion never hurts.

⚡Mick Foley +650

Foley, aka Mankind, is another beloved figure in the world of professional wrestling. He has been dealing with weight issues but has recently lost a lot of weight and has hinted at a return to the ring. What better way to make a grand comeback than at the Royal Rumble?

The 2025 Royal Rumble should be a fantastic event, so if you love professional wrestling, tune in this Saturday and see who enters the ring!
