Overview
- Breakker entered the Men's Royal Rumble at No. 2 after a SmackDown chyron had previously listed him as the first entrant.
- A hooded figure in black attacked Breakker before he reached the ring, hit a stomp, and threw him inside where No. 1 entrant Oba Femi immediately eliminated him.
- On the broadcast, Paul Heyman shouted that the attacker was Seth Rollins, but no on-air confirmation was provided.
- The masked person escaped into the crowd, and Breakker and Heyman headed backstage as the match continued.
- Coverage notes active fan and media speculation about the attacker’s identity, including Rollins, but all suggestions remain unverified.
