Powell’s POV: WWE added Bobby Roode to the official list of Rumble entrants. They also announced Shane McMahon for the match on Raw, but they have not added him to the official list as of this update. WWE announced that the event has sold out. The Greatest Royal Rumble will be streamed live in North America on Friday morning at 11CT (noon ET, 9 a.m. PT) on WWE Network. I will have live coverage as the show airs beginning with the Kickoff Show hosted by Byron Saxton, Jim Ross, Jerry Lawler, and Booker T at 10CT/11ET. Dot Net Members will also hear my audio review after the show. We will avoid listing match result spoilers in our headlines on Friday and Saturday as a courtesy to fans watching the show on delay.
