Bobby Lashley announced for WWE men's Royal Rumble match

United States Champion Bobby Lashley is entering the 2021 men’s Royal Rumble match.

It was announced on Raw tonight that Lashley will be an entrant in the 2021 men’s Royal Rumble match. Lashley made the announcement in a pre-match promo before The Hurt Business (Lashley, MVP, Shelton Benjamin & Cedric Alexander) defeated The New Day (Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods), Jeff Hardy & Riddle in an eight-man tag match. Lashley submitted Hardy with The Hurt Lock. After the match, Riddle hit a knee strike on Lashley.

In his pre-match promo, Lashley said he’s entering the Royal Rumble and will go on to main event WrestleMania. He’s the second wrestler to be confirmed for the men’s Royal Rumble match. Daniel Bryan also declared for the match on this past Friday’s episode of SmackDown.

Lashley has been United States Champion since defeating Apollo Crews for the title this August.

The 2021 Royal Rumble is taking place on Sunday, January 31. There will be men’s and women’s Royal Rumble matches at the pay-per-view. Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler are the first two wrestlers to declare for the women’s Royal Rumble match.
