The road to WrestleMania 42 kicked off today with WWE Royal Rumble 2026 in Saudi Arabia. Headlined by two traditional 30-person Royal Rumbles — one for the men, one for the women — the four-match card marks the first of WWE’s “Big Four” premium live events this year. The winner gets the opportunity to wrestle for a world championship at this year’s WrestleMania in April.
You can stream Royal Rumble live on ESPN Unlimited in the U.S., but if you’re looking to catch today’s big showdown for free you’re in luck. While ESPN Unlimited doesn’t offer a free trial right now, our pick for the best live streaming service for sports fans does. That would be Fubo, which features local broadcasts and nationally televised games on ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and more.
You can watch WWE Royal Rumble online and on TV, and from anywhere with a VPN. To watch it without paying a dime, though, you’ll need to sign up for a free 1-day trial through Fubo. Here’s how to watch WWE Royal Rumble online for free.
