Major Match Announced for “Greatest Royal RUmble”

Do you have room for one more? Next month, WWE will present one of the biggest cards in its history with the “Greatest Royal Rumble” from Saudi Arabia. The show will feature seven title matches plus a fifty man Royal Rumble, the largest in history. However, there is now a bonus match announced.

You might remember this one.

Raw: John Cena vs. Triple H

As announced on the official WWE Twitter, John Cena will face Triple H at the “Greatest Royal Rumble” on April 27. The two have fought numerous times over the years, including as the main event of “Wrestlemania XXIII”. Their most recent singles match took place on the February 15, 2010 episode of “Monday Night Raw”.

Opinion: Am I missing something or is this show going to be longer than “Wrestlemania”? There are nine matches announced so far. One of them is a fifty man Royal Rumble (remember that the thirty man versions regularly go over an hour), seven title matches and a match that headlined Wrestlemania. That’s four hours at least, assuming the title matches are short and one minute intervals in the Rumble.

Or maybe this one.
