GUNTHER Declares For WWE Royal Rumble, CM Punk Comments

We are a little over a week away from the WWE Royal Rumble, with the 30-man and 30-woman battle royals set for Florida’s Tropicana Field on January 27.

Multiple names have confirmed their participation in the upcoming matches, with dominant Intercontinental Champion GUNTHER the latest to declare his involvement in the men’s Rumble match, revealing his participation on the January 15 edition of WWE RAW.

GUNTHER dominated the 2023 Royal Rumble, lasting over an hour before Cody Rhodes eliminated him to win the match. After establishing himself as arguably the most destructive force in WWE, many have tipped the Austrian to go one better in 2024, with CM Punk fully aware of GUNTHER’s reputation.

Taking to Instagram, Punk posted a pic of the former WWE UK Champion to his story, writing that “if what I’m hearing is real… [then] poor 28 other guys”. Punk himself has also declared for the Rumble, with the former WWE Champion one of the favourites to win the match.
