I guess they’re on the same page. WWE is less than a week away from returning to Saudi Arabia for their latest special event, with Elimination Chamber taking place on February 19. As is usually the case with a Saudi Arabia event, the card is absolutely stacked, but in this case, there is a certain group of matches on the card that has gotten some extra attention. Now WWE is acknowledging that in a very certain way.

Elimination Chamber will feature three women’s matches, marking the most ever for a Saudi Arabia show. The three matches include an Elimination Chamber match, Charlotte/Sonya Deville vs. Ronda Rousey/Naomi, and Becky Lynch defending the raw Women’s Title against Lita. The title match is important enough that it has been advertised on several billboards in the country. Several WWE names have tweeted out an image of the billboards, with a near identical message of “WWE Continues To Influence The World” or something similar. There is no word on if this is a WWE mandate or the country’s government’s idea.

Opinion: This is one of those things that makes me scratch my head, as WWE can’t possibly believe that this is something that people will not notice. It comes off as straight propaganda as ordered by the government officials putting on the show, which isn’t exactly subtle. I’m not sure if it is going to make a difference in the big picture, but it is certainly not going to be something that helps with the show’s reputation in the first place.

What do you think of the tweets? How will the show go? Let us know in the comments below.
