Jennie Bond signs with WWE to cover the Royal Rumble

The BBC's former royal correspondent turned consumer campaigner Jennie Bond has been signed by the WWE to cover this weekend's Royal Rumble.

Jennie says she is ready to spill the royal-tea and has highlighted the grudge match to watch for - a fight between William and Andrew.

Jennie, more used to covering announcements of Royal babies and weddings from the gates of Buckingham Palace, will be covering the highlight in the American wrestling calendar on Sunday.

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."

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."
