Pat Patterson, AJ Styles docs highlight WWE Network’s Royal Rumble 30 Day Countdown

WWE Network presumably had success with their 30 Days of the Dead Man promotion leading into Survivor Series, because they’re doing something similar heading into Royal Rumble next month.

This time they won’t have Undertaker as a hook, but the Rumble event is a draw in and of itself. The quality of content looks to be just as high, too… and maybe even a but fresher than some of the Taker material the company’s repackaged repeatedly over the course of 2020.

Here are the details of the key projects included in Royal Rumble 30 Day Countdown, which includes the already announced Icons premiere and the recently reported Bayley interview on Broken Skull Sessions:
