Today is the day, the most exciting day on the WWE calendar, the Royal Rumble.
Several men and women have already declared their entry into the matches, but it’s the surprise participants that get fans talking the most.
There have been many names speculated about a potential cameo in the Rumble, one such name being Bad News Barrett.
Barrett currently provides colour commentary alongside Michael Cole on SmackDown during Pat McAfee’s absence during the college football season.
Barrett being on commentary has led to speculation about him potentially appearing in the match as a surprise entrant, delivering some Bad News to everyone.
Well WWE uploaded a video to social media earlier today, showing Drew McIntyre receiving his number for the match.
Drew looks at the number before shaking his head in disappointment, but there waiting is Bad News Barrett, celebrating the bad news Drew just received.
While obviously not a confirmation, it’s certainly an interesting tease ahead of the match.
There has been an update on the status of Pat McAfee ahead of tonight’s show, which you can see here.
