NXT Star Was Held Off Of Last Year's Royal Rumble (Patreon)

In researching for our huge Royal Rumble feature, we've learned of some things that happened with last year's match. Kay Lee Ray was brought to the venue and rehearsal, but was never given a number to be in the match. Talent would get a notification within the talent relations app to come to the rehearsal, but much of the NXT roster had no idea if they'd actually be in the show until the night before at said rehearsals.
