After laying out Titus O’Neil with The Dominator at tonight’s WWE live event in Fort Myers, Florida, Bobby Lashley announced his entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble Match.

Samoa Joe also announced his entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble Match in this backstage promo from tonight’s WWE live event in Fayetteville, North Carolina.

A tradition dating back to 1988, the Men’s Royal Rumble Match starts with two participants, and WWE Superstars enter the ring at equal intervals. This continues until all 30 Superstars have entered the bout. Elimination occurs when a Superstar is thrown over the top rope, and both of his feet hit the floor. The last Superstar in the ring will be declared the victor.
