World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) superstars will make another visit to South Korea.

According to Access Entertainment, an organizing company, wrestlers from RAW, one of WWE's three television programs, will perform in what is called the ``Royal Rumble Tour,'' with a stop on Feb. 10, 2008 at Seoul's Jamsil Stadium.

Access Entertainment also said that 20 top-level wrestlers, such as WWE champion Randy Orton and Triple H, will show off their skills at the event.

The pro wrestling body, which also features the programs SmackDown and ECW, started touring Korea in 2003. Since then, it has had four shows in Korea, with the most recent being held in 2005.

The event coming to Korea in February is expected to feature some of the company's most popular performers. That includes Orton, who earned the championship last month in a Last Man Standing event.

Triple H, a veteran wrestler who made his WWE debut in 1995, is a former champion and one of the organization's most successful athletes of all time.

Some of the other notable wrestlers expected to compete in Korea are Umaga, Jeff Hardy, Mr. Kennedy and Carlito.
