WWE Royal Rumble 2025: Match card, time, how to watch and more
The beginning of February means the start of the road to WrestleMania.
WWE's first premier live event of the year will set up the company's most important timeframe on the calendar with one of its iconic nights: the Royal Rumble.
One of the most well-known stipulations in wrestling, the annual Royal Rumble men's and women's matches will each have 30 competitors enter the ring and throw each other over the top rope. The last one standing in each match will get a championship bout at WrestleMania, which could be a career-changing match for a young talent or put two major stars against each other on the biggest stage.
The titular matches won't be the only action on Saturday. The WWE Tag Team Championship will be on the line in a two-out-of-three-falls count match, and Cody Rhodes will again defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Kevin Owens.

Aaron Rodgers signs with Steelers: See which number the new AFC North QB will wear
It was a big day filled with numbers for Aaron Rodgers on Saturday. He signed his contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The deal is for a year and will earn the quarterback $10 million guaranteed, with a maximum value of $19.5 million. The deal includes $5.85 million worth of playing time and team performance incentives. Rodgers will wear No. 8 for the Steelers, per Adam Schefter. No Steelers player has worn 12 since Terry Bradshaw, so that was out of the question, although the number is not retired. Rodgers will take the number from current punter Corliss Waitman, who has been with the team for three seasons.

WWE Money In The Bank 2025 Results As Naomi Wins Women's Ladder Match
WWE Money in the Bank 2025 featured one of the most star-studded women's matches in company history: Alexa Bliss, Guilia, Naomi, Rhea Ripley, Roxanne Perez and Stephanie Vaquer in a six-woman ladder match. In the eighth installment of the match, WWE mixed in three of its most seasoned veterans with three red hot rising stars who've all been called up to Raw or SmackDown in 2025. The goal? Outlast your opponents, climb up the ladder, grad the coveted WWE Money in the Bank briefcase and cash it in for a guaranteed world title show at at any time over the next year. Kicking off the show in the Intuit Dome, WWE's ensemble of women's stars battled it out in an attempt to become the eighth 'Ms. Money in the Bank' in history, putting on quite the show in the process. But in the end, only one star reigned surpreme. For the first time ever, Naomi can call herself 'Ms. Money in the Bank.' It was no secret that Naomi, in the midst of the best run of her WWE career, was the overwhelming favorite to win the coveted Money in the Bank briefcase. She entered the pay-per-view with reports indicating that she was the top choice to win the match. And that's exactly what Naomi did for the first time in her career. Some of the key highlights of the women's ladder match were: Of course, the biggest highlight was Naomi's career-defining win. The odds-on betting favorite to capture the 2025 WWE Money in the Bank briefcase, Naomi earned this victory with a stellar character arc over the past few months. Naomi had spent all of 2025 feuding with Jade Cargill in one of WWE's best non-title women's feuds in recent memory, even making her way into a rare WrestleMania women's non-title bout. Especially in recent weeks, Naomi had reinvented herself as one of the most intriguing stars in all of WWE, and now, she has one full year to cash in her Money in the Bank briefcase and capture a world title. The most obvious potential cash-in for Naomi would be SmackDown's current WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton. Stratton isn't clicking quite as well as expected as champion, and Naomi would be a fresh titleholder on the blue brand. Naomi cashing in on Stratton is a much more likely option than doing so on Iyo Sky, who is currently on the opposite brand, Raw. There is a ready made storyline for Naomi, who has plenty of history with Stratton, to cash in on SmackDown's current champion in the near future. That would potentially allow Naomi to seamlessly continue her storyline with one or two stars she's been joined at the hip with. Naomi has been connected with Jade Cargill, her WrestleMania opponent, and Bianca Belair, her former tag team partner, more than just about anyone in WWE. Both of those stars are strong candidates to be world champions in the near future, and if WWE decides to play the waiting game, then Naomi's Money in the Bank win could be saved for further down the road. There's no need to rush Naomi's cash-in, after all, and it would be quite the story if she finally cashed in that briefcase on either Cargill or Naomi. For now, Naomi will keep that WWE Money in the Bank briefcase by her side, but logic says that her guaranteed title shot will play a major role in her long-term storyline with Cargill and Belair.
