WWE 'Leak' Claims Former Champion Is Set to Return for Royal Rumble

A former WWE champion appears set to make his stunning comeback at Royal Rumble.

The WWE sets up shop in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for the 2026 Royal Rumble on January 31.

It will be the 39th annual Royal Rumble and will be the first to take place outside of North America.

Anticipation is already building ahead of next year's Premium Live Event in the Middle East, with the WWE seemingly leaking plans of the return of a former Raw Tag Team champion for the event.

Omos - Tolulope 'Jordan' Omogbehin - has been spotted in Saudi Arabia to promote the event at the inauguration of Mr. Beast Land along with Randy Orton and Liv Morgan.

A video emerged online of Omos, Orton and Morgan at Mr. Beast Land, fuelling speculation he is set to make his WWE comeback.

It seems to suggest that the Nigerian will feature at Royal Rumble given his participation in promoting the event.

There has been no confirmation regarding his return.

Omos, 33, joined the WWE in January 2019 before making his in-ring debut in July and went onto become the personal bodyguard of AJ Styles.

As a duo, they won the Raw Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 37.

The seven-foot-three-inch wrestler would later be affiliated with MVP, who served as his manager.

Omos made his last television appearance in the WWE in April 2024 on SmackDown.

He competed at The Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal but accidentally eliminated himself.

The Nigerian appeared at NOAH in January and held the GHC Tag Team Championship with Jack Morris during his month-long excursion in Japan.

Omos also made an appearance for WWE's partner promotion AAA Lucha Libre.

He beat Lexis King at an NXT event in October, too.

Omos has previously hinted at a WWE comeback, having revealed that he signed a new deal with the promotion in June.

"Things are going very well. Can’t complain. I’m really excited about what is to come," he said. "I’ve been training really hard and working on some new things and I think it’s going to be a really fun ride ahead, especially because I just signed a renewal with WWE and will be there for years to come!"
