I hope you used erasable pens. The WWE deal with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia isn’t the most popular thing among wrestling fans. Ignoring all the international issues, there’s the simple fact that the shows have been both long and not very entertaining while often being ignored by WWE as soon as they’re over. Therefore, a change might be helpful, though this might not help very much.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the third show in the deal has been moved from May 3 to June 7. The currently unnamed show has yet to be officially announced and there is no word on when WWE will start building towards the show. The first two shows, Greatest Royal Rumble and Crown Jewel, took place in April and November 2018 respectively.
Don’t remember Crown Jewel? Check out how things went down:
Opinion: The later these things go the better, but at the same time I could go with not having to see them in the first place. They’re just not good shows and there’s no way around that. WWE goes over there, gets a huge paycheck, and the fans just deal with shows that mean very little in the grand scheme of things. Just find a way to make them more entertaining? Please?
