A Glimpse into WWE’s Programming Adjustments for the Upcoming Saudi Arabia Event

In a move that underscores WWE’s commitment to its international partnerships, the company is tweaking its broadcast schedule in anticipation of the premium live event in Saudi Arabia this November. As part of the longstanding collaboration with the Saudi government, WWE has opted to make a significant change to its SmackDown airing.

Rather than broadcasting a live SmackDown episode on the eve of the Saudi spectacle, set for November 4th, WWE has charted out a different course. The plan is to go live with SmackDown on October 27th. But here’s the twist: on that very night in Milwaukee, the company will also tape the SmackDown episode scheduled for November 3rd. This maneuver is a clear indication of WWE’s intent to seamlessly juggle its international obligations.

One of the marquee bouts to watch out for at the Saudi Arabia premium live event is Roman Reigns stepping into the ring to defend his WWE Universal Championship. As the clock ticks down to this global extravaganza, the wrestling community is abuzz, speculating on the potential matchups and narratives that will captivate audiences worldwide.
