The former BBC broadcaster - who covered the British royal family for 14 years from 1989 to 2003 - has joined forces with the sports entertainment brand ahead of its huge show on Sunday night (31.01.21).

In spoof news bulletin, she said: "Hello. I’m Jennie Bond, 'Royal Rumble' correspondent, ready to bring you the news and view ahead of the 'Royal Rumble' this Sunday live on the WWE Network.

"Over the coming days, I’ll be spilling all of the royal-tea as we anticipate tussles, scuffles and plenty of handbags at dawn.

"No confirmations right now from the higher-ups on any surprise appearances, although history has told us that we should very much expect the unexpected.

"What we do know is that each Royal Rumble match will see 30 competitors enter the ring, but only one will stand triumphant."

The 70-year-old star - who has also presented 'Cash in the Attic' and 'Great British Menu' - also teased a suitably "princely" clash between two giants of WWE, better known to fans as WWE Champion Drew McIntyre and the legendary Bill Goldberg.

She added: "However, all eyes will surely be on the astonishing princely conflict between William and Andrew. Who could have predicted such a growing sense of animosity between the pair?

"Yes, William Goldberg and Andrew McIntyre will slog it out for the title. The outcome here really could have astronomical repercussions.

"The countdown is well and truly on. Jennie Bond, 'Royal Rumble' correspondent. Now back to you in the studio."

As well as the two flagship 30-person bouts and Drew McIntyre's WWE Title defence against Goldberg, the show ill also see a Last Man Standing Match pitting Universal Champion Roman Reigns against Kevin Owens.

'WWE Royal Rumble' airs Sunday, January 31 at midnight on the WWE Network and BT Sport Box Office.
