WWE has an updated card for the Royal Rumble following this week’s episode of WWE Raw in Belfast. As noted, Monday night’s episode saw several new declarations for the Royal Rumble on both the men’s and women’s side.

In addition, Gunther — who has also declared for the men’s Rumble — will battle AJ Styles in singles action. Styles’ career will be on the line in the match. Styles appeared on Monday’s Raw demanding a rematch with Gunther after the latter used sneaky tricks to beat him last week. Gunther said he wouldn’t pull double duty unless Styles put his career on the line. After thinking about it for much of the episode, Styles agreed and Adam Pearce made the match.

The updated card for the WWE Royal Rumble is below. The show takes place on January 31st from KAFD in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It airs live on the ESPN App domestically and on Netflix for international viewers.
