Date reportedly set for next WWE pay-per-view in Saudi Arabia
WWE is returning to Saudi Arabia this November, according to a report.
As noted in Sunday’s Daily Update by Dave Meltzer, Wrestlenomics is reporting that WWE will return to Saudi Arabia on Saturday, November 4.
While not officially announced by the company, the event will likely be the annual Crown Jewel pay-per-view. Last year’s Crown Jewel was held on November 5 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
WWE and Saudi Arabia announced a ten-year agreement in 2018 that called for the country to host two pay-per-view events annually. Only one show was held in Saudi Arabia in both 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
After not holding a pay-per-view event in December 2022, it is possible that WWE has rounded out their pay-per-view calendar for the rest of the year with the news of this second Saudi show.
A look at the WWE pay-per-view calendar for the next several months:
- Saturday, August 5: SummerSlam at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan
- Saturday, September 2: Payback at PPG Paints Arena In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
- Saturday, October 7: Fastlane at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana
- Saturday, November 4: Pay-per-view in Saudi Arabia
- Saturday, November 25: Survivor Series at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois
