WWE Royal Rumble 2021 goes down this Sunday, 31 January, and last night's episode of Raw brought several new additions to the card.

The most notable of these is Edge, who declared himself for the men's Royal Rumble in an emotional promo that saw him state that with the clock ticking on his wrestling career, he has to win this. John Morrison, Sheamus, and Mustafa Ali were also added to the bout during Raw.

Another non-Rumble match was added, as Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler challenge for Asuka and Charlotte Flair's Women's Tag Team Championships. Raw also saw Riddle defeat The Hurt Business' Cedric Alexander, Shelton Benjamin, and MVP in a gauntlet match to earn a shot at Bobby Lashley's United States Title, though this hasn't been added to the Rumble lineup.
