WWE Royal Rumble 2022 start time, match card

WWE will return to pay-per-view (PPV), Peacock, and WWE Network later on this evening (Sat., Jan. 29, 2022) with its second biggest show of the year, the Royal Rumble extravaganza, emanating from The Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis, Missouri.

The event will get rolling at 7 pm ET with the free Kickoff show, which runs for one hour on YouTube, WWE.com, and various other social media outlets. That leads right on into the PPV at 8 pm ET, which you can stream from a number of devices if you have a subscription to Peacock in the United States and WWE Network everywhere else. You can also win $10,000 in DraftKings’ free-to-play Royal Rumble pools — one for the men’s match, and one for the women’s.

Here’s the card for the show, at least as of this writing:

• Women’s Royal Rumble match
• Men’s Royal Rumble match
• WWE Championship: Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley
• Universal Championship: Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins
• Raw Women’s Championship: Becky Lynch vs. Doudrop
• Edge & Beth Phoenix vs. The Miz & Maryse
