Sami Zayn announced his entry into the 2025 Royal Rumble match during his appearance on WWE RAW. During his declaration, Zayn emphasized that a world championship opportunity is not merely something he needs, but something he wants.
Kevin Owens, the Winged Eagle Champion, interrupted Zayn’s announcement. Owens acknowledged Seth Rollins’ previous observation about Zayn’s tendency to focus on others rather than himself, expressing support for his friend’s Royal Rumble aspirations.
Owens proposed a mutual assistance agreement for the Royal Rumble match, offering to help Zayn in exchange for reciprocal support. Zayn did not provide an immediate response to the proposition.
Owens is scheduled to defend his championship against Cody Rhodes at the Royal Rumble on February 1.
