As soon as Rollins registered the news in his head, he responded, “You ran into the right person because she will keep a secret. She didn’t even tell me, didn’t even know.” These confident words by The Architect were enough to show how proud he was of his wife, despite her keeping the massive Royal Rumble secret from him. The wrestler in him understood the need for his wife to keep the confidential news to herself.

The color commentator made his way to the ring while greeting the audience. He also mocked Corey Graves and Michael Cole with a “s**k it” taunt. However, Cole still looked happy, but Graves didn’t seem to enjoy it. Even when McAfee came to shake hands with him, he hesitated. The tension between the two was quite evident as Corey said, “I’m going home” when the American sports analyst joined the ringside commentary. Whether he enjoyed it or not, he had to sit beside Patt McAfee for the entire show.

The promotion kept his return a secret from almost everyone. While everyone had differing reactions, the fandom and the performers themselves shared the same shock of seeing McAfee. This became possible because Lynch did a commendable job of keeping the secret.
