The 2019 Royal Rumble event is set for later tonight. The event is being held at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. The card will be broadcast live on the WWE Network.

– Big E remembers his first Royal Rumble match in a new video from WWE’s Instagram account. You can check out that video below. This was at the 2014 match that Batista won, and fans were upset when Daniel Bryan didn’t come out for the match, and it was Rey Mysterio entering in at No. 30 instead.

Big E stated on his first Rumble match in 2014: “I had the IC title at the time, I was number 29. Oh! This was the rumble where I was really thankful that I wasn’t number 30 because people thought [Daniel] Bryan was going to be in the rumble and out comes Rey Mysterio, at number 30! And they booed Rey! Ya’ll booed a legend! Disrespect. They booed him vehemently. Think about me? Me at the time? It would have been extra ‘booing.’ Yeah, that was the year Bryan didn’t come out and they were real hot.”

– WWE released a new Canvas 2 Canvas video today. In the new video, Rob Schamberger creates new artwork for the NXT call-ups debuting on the main roster. You can check out that video below.
