Earlier, a production graphic error on Friday's SmackDown listed Breakker as number one entrant, sparking confusion. It seem WWE has made chicken salad out of the situation and turned it into a storyline.
Paul Heyman confronted WWE official Adam Pearce on the pre-show, questioning the legitimacy of the draw.
Random draw my Kosher tuchus. Don’t tell me it’s a random draw. Listen, for how many years did people think that number one was the worst position… You start off, and number one has the high ground. So number two is even worse than number one. And you want to make him number two? Really?"
- Paul Heyman
CM Punk defended Pearce, insisting the Royal Rumble draw process remains random despite Heyman's accusations. Heyman argued the number two spot statistically disadvantages entrants more than number one.
Breakker now prepares for an endurance test against 29 other competitors vying for a World Title opportunity at WrestleMania 42.
