-- As per their recent press release, WWE has decided to air Royal Rumble next year on January 29, 2022 which is a Saturday. The reason for this is because the Sunday of that weekend, the NFL is holding their conference championships and WWE didn’t want to run their PPV on the same night and they also didn’t want to wait until the next weekend, which would have pushed Royal Rumble to February. Typically, WWE has held their January PPV a week before the NFL’s conference finals and SuperBowl.
