Behind-the-Scenes Update on WWE-Saudi Arabia Schedule






WWE will host the Royal Rumble in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in 2026, certainly a step back from the largest Royal Rumble previously held by the country, but historic nonetheless. However, Saudi fans won’t have to wait until 2026 to see the company’s stars.

According to Fightful SelectWWE has planned a 2025 event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, likely in June, the only Saudi event planned for the 2025 calendar. The unnamed event would be the first June show in Saudi Arabia for WWE since Super Showdown of 2019. The company’s last Saudi PLE was the Crown Jewel event, where Cody Rhodes and Liv Morgan won the WWE Crown Jewel titles, defeating Gunther and Nia Jax, respectively. WWE is still in the midst of a 10-year deal with the Saudi General Sports Authority to host events and other WWE-branded experiences in the Kingdom. Currently, there have been 12 PLEs. WWE recently opened the WWE Experience in Riyadh, a multimedia experience that takes fans through the trials and tribulations of a WWE Superstar.

Next year’s Royal Rumble will be the first international Royal Rumble event, as not even Canada has hosted the January PLE in its 39-year history. WWE parent company TKO Group Holdings is working with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund to launch a boxing promotion to join the MMA and rodeo brands that are already under the TKO umbrella. The company was founded in September 2023, following the merger between the UFC and WWE.
