As it’s now official the Women’s Royal Rumble match will be a 30-Women Over the Top Rope Match for a Title Spot at WrestleMania 34, and the current WWE roster has 22 active women (as of now, only 9 Women are official for the Rumble match, Carmella, Tamina Snuka, Lana, Asuka, Naomi, Ruby Riott, Natalya, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Paige, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville), some Superstars from the past, like NXT Women, are expected to be apart of the match.
One of the very first Women Superstars who reacted to the announcement of the first-ever All-Women Royal Rumble match was one of the very few who made history when she took part of the Men’s Match in 2010. Beth Phoenix broke the glass-ceiling again that night, 10 years after Chyna did. As WWE just announced Beth Phoenix is back in the company, rumours to see her back in the ring are running even more rampant.
But for the moment, she will be busy at the announce table of the WWE upcoming Facebook Live show, WWE Mixed Match Challenge, commenting action alongside Corey Graves and Michael Cole. The announcement was made on WWE Facebook page by Byron Saxton and Renee Young in this video.
On its website, the company is praising the domination of Phoenix on the Women’s division. ” The former Women’s Champion ripped through anyone in her path and never failed to draw gasps from the WWE Universe, whether she was lifting Melina and Mickie James over her shoulder at the same time, eliminating The Great Khali from the 2002 Royal Rumble Match or Glam Slamming Eve from the top rope at the 2011’s Survivor Series, “WWE is stating.
The show, as we told you a few weeks ago, will air for 12 weeks from January 16 and reunite WWE Superstars from both RAW and SmackDown Live rosters in a single-elimination mixed tag-team tournament to win $100,000 to support the charity of their choice.
Alexa Bliss, Alicia Fox, Asuka, Bayley, Braun Strowman, Kurt Angle (who’s replacing a ill Enzo Amore), Finn Balor, Goldust, Nia Jax, Sasha Banks, The Miz will represent RAW alongside the member chosen by the fans.Becky Lynch, Bobby Roode, Carmella, Charlotte Flair, Jimmy Uso, Lana, Naomi, Natalya, Rusev, Sami Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura and one of the member of The New Day, chosen by the fans, will represent SmackDown Live.
If “The Glamazon will certainly provide a unique perspective on the ground-breaking Facebook Watch show”, like WWE is adding, could we see here a sign she could be a surprise entrant in the All-Women Royal Rumble match a few weeks later?
.@WWE I’m honored to be a part of this historic experience alongside pros @WWEGraves and @MichaelCole #HeadsetRookie #MixedMatchChallenge https://t.co/GNaN0yHNtv
