A 20-minute snoozefest here, the finish saw CM Punk's Nexus and Alex Riley get involved, with Miz sneaking the pinfall win after the Second City Saint nailed Randy with a GTS - in turn setting up Punk vs. Orton for WrestleMania XXVII, whilst Miz would successfully retain the WWE Title against John Cena at that year's Showcase of the Immortals.

CM Punk believes he has one more hurdle to clear before he’s "over" how his night ended at the 2024 Royal Rumble. Punk sat down with Jackie Redmond for a new interview ahead of the 2025 Royal Rumble.

CM Punk was asked by WWE correspondent Jackie Redmond on who he would want to see at the Women's Royal Rumble match.

Unlike AEW’s Casino Gauntlet match, drawing the #1 position in a Royal Rumble is not a highly desired outcome. While it might generate a huge crowd pop and allow the wrestler to milk their entrance, it also means they’re going to need to go wire-to-wire to win.
