The last time Cena and Triple H faced off in a singles match was 2010 on an episode of RAW.

What's next?

Cena and Triple H may be facing off in late April but they both have big WrestleMania matches coming before that. Cena will probably be facing Undertaker at Mania while Triple H teams up with his wife Stephanie McMahon to take on the team of Kurt Angle and Ronda Rousey.

Author's take

If we didn't already know how big and important an event this was for WWE before this, the announcement of the Cena and Triple H's match confirms it.

This will surely be one hell of an event and we can't wait to see who will win the first ever Greatest Royal Rumble. It remains to be seen if this will just be a one-time event or an annual event like Wrestlemania or the other PPVs which are available on the WWE network.
