SAMI ZAYN AND BAYLEY ADDED TO THE ROYAL RUMBLE
- The men's Royal Rumble match had another addition last night on Raw as Sami Zayn declared himself for the match while Bayley became the first woman to announce herself for the women's match. Zayn cut an in-ring promo and said that while he doesn't need a world title to feel complete, he still wants it, because the 14-year-old Sami always wanted to win the WWE title. His promo was interrupted by Kevin Owens, who expressed full confidence in Zayn winning the Rumble and they could go and main event WrestleMania against each other for the WWE title. Bayley announced that she would be entering the women's Royal Rumble match in a backstage interview with Cathy Kelley. She said that if she wins, she could go after the WWE Women's title, the WWE Women's World title, or even the NXT title. Bayley won last year's Royal Rumble and defeated Iyo Sky for the WWE Women's title at WrestleMania.


WWE WOMEN'S WORLD TITLE MATCH ANNOUNCED FOR SNME
- The fourth and final match for this weekend Saturday Night's Main Event was announced last night on Raw. WWE Women's World champion Rhea Ripley will be defending her title against former WWE Women's champion Nia Jax, with this match joining Gunther vs Jey Uso for the World Heavyweight title, Bron Breakker vs Sheamus for the Intercontinental title, and Jacob Fatu vs Braun Strowman. As Raw started last night, Jax ambushed Ripley backstage and had to be separated by several officials. Ripley returned the favor after Jax defeated Bayley, with the action spilling on the announce table where security once again pulled the two women apart. Ripley had the last laugh this time around, hitting a cannonball and taking out everyone in the process before challenging Jax for a SNME match.


BAYLEY SWITCHES TO RAW
- Former WWE Women's champion Bayley has officially joined the Raw roster, switching from the blue brand as part of the "transfer window" which seemingly has no end date. The news was announced by Raw General Manager Adam Pearce in a social media video before Raw went on the air. Bayley battled Nia Jax during the broadcast and was unsuccessful in getting a win on her first night officially back on the red brand as Jax walked out with the victory with a clean win. NXT's Roxanne Perez was in front row and tried to slap Bayley again but Bayley was ready this time around and slapped her instead. Perez and Bayley got into a brawl last week in the main event segment of NXT.


NEW ORLEANS RUMORED TO GET WRESTLEMANIA 42
- There are heavy rumors that next year's WrestleMania will be taking place from New Orleans, Louisiana again, the site of this year's NFL SuperBowl. Industry insiders suggest that NOLA is the frontrunner to host its third WrestleMania, following two very, very successful WrestleManias in 2014 and 2018. In 2014, WrestleMania XXX took place in front of a reported 75,167 crowd and saw Daniel Bryan win the WWE Championship with the Yes! Movement in full throttle. Four years later, WrestleMania 34 was attended by a reported 78,133 fans and saw Brock Lesnar retain the WWE title against Roman Reigns in the main event. On both occasions, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome was the host of WrestleMania, and if next year the show goes back to New Orleans, the Superdome becomes only the second location ever along with Madison Square Garden to host WrestleMania on three different occasions. A WrestleMania Kick Off press conference is rumored to be taking place next month from The Big Easy.


WWE WORLD AT WRESTLEMANIA 41 OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED
- WWE and Fanatics today officially announced the return of WWE World at WrestleMania 41, a five-day event which will start on April 17 and runs through April 21. The fan convention will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center, West Hall, and tickets go on sale on February 3 at 9AM PST. Pre-sale for prior ticket holders from WWE World 2024 begins January 29 at 9AM PST. WWE World at WrestleMania 41 will feature a variety of immersive experiences for fans including a central main stage that will host roundtable discussions with top WWE Superstars, live podcast recordings, live memorabilia and autograph sales through Fanatics Live, and the largest WWE Superstore in WrestleMania history. The event will also feature exclusive merchandise autograph sessions and meet-and-greets with WWE Superstars and Legends, in addition to immersive exhibits and memorabilia honoring WrestleMania’s 41-year history.

BRODY KING AND BUDDY MATTHEWS FILE TM APPLICATIONS FOR NEW NAMES
- With Malakai Black's departure from AEW, the House of Black is also seemingly dead for obvious reasons, but Black's two former tag team partners, Brody King and Buddy Matthews, are already thinking ahead. King last week trademarked two names with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, filing applications for Hounds of Hell and Cerberus. Meanwhile, Matthews also trademarked the name Hell Hounds, suggesting that a combo of the two names will be used in the future on AEW television as they get away from the House of Black branding. Black is rumored to become a free agent in around six to eight weeks after spending the last three and a half years working with AEW. A WWE return is certainly not out of the question.
