Latest On Whether WWE Crown Jewel Will Take Place In Saudi Arabia

WWE reportedly still seems currently set on having next month’s WWE Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. As has been noted, the show has been scheduled for Riyadh but there has been speculation about it potentially moving due to the ongoing war with Iran.

WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select reports that according to sources, WWE and others scheduled to make the trip are acting under the belief that the event will move forward as planned. As has been reported, WWE has a backup venue ready to go that is in the US in case it is no longer feasible to go to Saudi Arabia.

WWE Crown Jewel takes place on November 7th from (currently) Riyadh and will air live on ESPN Unlimited in the US, and Netflix internationally.
