Royce Keys scored the biggest win of his WWE career so far on Friday’s episode of WWE SmackDown, winning the 2026 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal on the April 17 show. The win gives Keys a spotlight as he begins his journey on the blue brand.
The closing stretch of the Battle Royal saw Keys mix it up with Otis, Aleister Black, and Talla Tonga as the final four. Black connected with Black Mass on Otis, but his momentum was cut off when Keys blasted him with a clothesline over the top rope.
Tonga then eliminated Otis, leaving himself and Keys as the final two, before Keys hit a big spinebuster and sent Tonga to the floor to clinch the win and the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy.
