There are more than 65,000 spectators at Lucas Oil Stadium for the 2025 Royal Rumble. With Stephanie McMahon, they began their journey through the program, which had a lot to cover. Introducing Stephanie McMahon kicked off this year's Royal Rumble event. After receiving a standing ovation from the Indianapolis crowd, she gave a brief speech to her admirers.
For making this the largest Royal Rumble event in history, the Billion Dollar Princess honored WWE fans. Their live broadcasts are available on Peacock in the United States and on Netflix in other countries. A lot of people will be watching the 2025 Royal Rumble as WWE begins the journey to WrestleMania 41. Another indication that 2025 will probably see more record-breaking is the fact that they are starting a new Netflix partnership.
When Alexa Bliss entered the Women's Royal Rumble match at No. 21 to a roaring ovation, it marked her unexpected comeback. She wore brand-new attire that complemented her Firefly Funhouse persona, including a new Lilly doll. Bliss last competed at the 2023 Royal Rumble, where she lost to Bianca Belair in a match for the Raw Women's Championship. After that, she took a long break from WWE to give birth to her first child.

Since the January 6 Raw on Netflix launch, Bliss has been a popular name in the rumour mill. According to reports, the five-time Women's Champion was scheduled to rejoin the organization that evening in Los Angeles; however, her artistic intentions were put on hold for a few weeks due to an alleged contract issue.
WWE holds Alexa Bliss's return due to a contract dispute
Alexa Bliss appears to be scheduled to make an appearance after weeks of uncertainty surrounding her future. Given that Bliss' WWE return had been put on hold due to a contract dispute, PWInsider Elite claims that her attendance at the event "turned a ton of heads."
After she and WWE couldn't agree on a new contract, her scheduled return on Raw's January 13 episode was canceled just weeks ago. Before making her comeback, Bliss and her agent negotiated a new contract with more money and benefits. Originally, she was supposed to return in a plot involving the Wyatt Sicks. It was thought that she wouldn't be coming back anytime soon since WWE wanted her to return under the conditions of her current contract.
