SmackDown Production Botch Potentially Spoils Number One Royal Rumble Entrant

There is a lot of anticipation each and every year for the Royal Rumble matches, with the excitement building up as we edge closer and closer to seeing who the first entrant will be to kick off proceedings. Well, unless WWE changes their current plans or if this mistake was a completely random mishap, it looks as though the levels of excitement for that moment may drop significantly. 

WWE headed to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for last night’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, taking over the brand new Royal Rumble Stadium ahead of the PLE later tonight. During the show, the number one entry in the men’s Royal Rumble match was seemingly spoiled for the world to see. Despite WWE doing their best to keep Rumble details under wraps, certain things have seeped through the cracks when it comes to plans and surprises.

During Axiom’s entrance for his match with Johnny Gargano, a graphic mistakenly appeared at the bottom screen showing Bron Breakker as being the entrant number one, alongside his billed height and weight. The graphics were similar in all but colour to last year’s Royal Rumble graphics which denoted the entrant numbers, information, and more. Excitement has been building up when it comes to surprises, with a rumored debuting name reportedly in Saudi Arabia.
