Omos has made several comments about Waffle House and has talked about iHop as well, which has led to several fans reacting to his controversial takes on the food joints. The star has been away from WWE for a while and has found success in Pro Wrestling NOAH, where he won the tag team championship alongside another wrestler. However, he was recalled to WWE ahead of the Royal Rumble but did not appear at the event. He had to give up his title as well. Now though, it seems that he will finally be returning to action soon.

AJ Styles is definitely not unfamiliar with Omos, given that he helped the star debut on the main roster and appear - first as a bodyguard, and then as a tag team partner. The two are former champions as well, having won the tag team titles together. After seeing his recent comments, Styles hinted at a reunion with him, saying that he was going to talk to him and get him back on track.

Nikki Bella made a surprise return to WWE last Saturday as an entrant in the Women's Royal Rumble match. She hinted that her sister Brie might also return to the company. The duo announced their departure from the wrestling juggernaut in 2023 and rebranded as The Garcia Twins. Brie Bella even appeared at AEW All In last year in London to support her husband, Bryan Danielson, who won the AEW World Title at the event. Her last match in WWE was at the 2022 Royal Rumble.

During a recent edition of The Nikki & Brie Show, Nikki Bella shared an update on her return, stating that her appearance at the Rumble was just the beginning, and she promised fans they would see her again sooner rather than later. She then hinted that Brie Bella might also join her back.

Jey Uso entered at #20 and was the last man standing in the 30-man battle royale. He eliminated the returning John Cena at the end, preventing the multi-time WWE World Champion from winning his final Royal Rumble Match. Uso comes from a family of wrestling royalty, with previous 'Rumble winners from the Anoa'i family including The Rock, Roman Reigns, and Hall of Famer Yokozuna.

Taking to Instagram, Jey Uso sent a two-word comment on WWE's post, reacting to the video highlighting his incredible achievement of becoming the latest from his famous family to win the Men's Royal Rumble Match.

FROM THE RUMOR MILL

For several years, Jim Johnston composed the music for WWE stars' entrances, including the iconic theme songs of Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, and Triple H. Sadly, the Stamford-based promotion released Jim in 2017. Following his release, CFO$ took over the role of music production for the next few years. However, the Stamford-based promotion signed a deal with Def Rebel in 2019 to produce entrance themes for its stars. 

Sadly, the quality of the theme songs depreciated after Def Rebel took over. Many sounded so generic that they were hard to differentiate from each other. Fans were unhappy that they could not distinguish between wrestlers during the 2025 Royal Rumble match, so they remained silent throughout the match. However, it appears that fans aren't the only ones who are unhappy with the quality of entrance music. According to reports from Fightful Select, several WWE Superstars are unhappy with the quality of their theme songs and have tried to get their previous ones back. Many didn't even interact with the Def Rebel producers for input on the songs.
