Picture: Royal Rumble 2026 – WWE
This weekend, the road to Wrestlemania begins with every wrestling fan’s favorite event of the year, the Royal Rumble. Hosted in Saudi Arabia, where the venue has just been built for the occasion, this year’s Royal Rumble will start much earlier. For subscribers wondering about what this change means for this year’s Royal Rumble, we have everything you need to know in our comprehensive Q&A below.
The Royal Rumble has always been one of the biggest nights in wrestling every single year for almost four decades. The event marks the beginning of the Road to Wrestlemania, as 30 men and 30 women battle it out for a shot at a World Championship of their choice at WWE’s largest event of the year.
With superstars such as Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Brock Lesnar, Iyo Skye, Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, and hopefully some surprises along the way competing, this year’s Rumble is sure to be electric. Also on the card is underdog Sami Zayn fighting Undisputed WWE Champion Drew McIntyre for his first world title with the WWE. Not to mention the phenomenal one, AJ Styles, is putting his career on the line against the “Ring General” Gunther, who retired John Cena in December.
What time does Royal Rumble 2026 go live?
The Royal Rumble is being held in Saudi Arabia this year, which means the PLE’s start time will differ from what fans are used to. For European and Middle Eastern audiences, the time change is much more fan-friendly. However, US audiences will be watching the event much earlier in the afternoon.

Can I stream Royal Rumble 2026 after the Main Event?
Yes! Once Royal Rumble 2026 is over, Netflix will keep the PLE available to stream as VOD. Any subscriber who does not want to watch it live can stream the PLE at their leisure.
Please note that if your Netflix language settings are not set to English, you may not be able to find the match VOD immediately after.
How long is Royal Rumble 2026?
The Royal Rumble is one of the biggest Premium Live Events of the year for WWE, on par with Survivor Series and SummerSlam, and arguably just as popular as WrestleMania.
Unlike WrestleMania and SummerSlam, the Royal Rumble is a one-night event. With both the men’s and women’s Royal Rumble matches taking over an hour each, it’s going to be a long event. With the current card, the Royal Rumble is likely to be a three- to four-hour event.
What to watch before Royal Rumble 2026?
If you have the time, we’d recommend watching this Monday’s episode of RAW and Smackdown, which goes live at 17:00 PM (GMT) / 14:00 PM (EST).
