Mariah Carey went there so now it's okay, the WWE should just take inspiration from her statement
"As the first female international artist to perform in Saudi Arabia, Mariah recognises the cultural significance of this event and will continue to support global efforts towards equality for all and looks forward to bringing inspiration and encouragement to all audiences."

I fully believe it will, but even if it doesn't doesn't matter to me. I've supported alternatives with my money instead of this company from 2014 on and haven't given a dime to this company since 2010. Neither of that changes regardless of what happens with CodyBucks
Um, OP, I'm pretty sure the event is taking place in the great nation of Crown Jewel. What is this Saw-dee Aray-beeya place you mention? Never heard of it.
Me too!
Honestly they might as well lean into it with how distasteful Vince and Dunn are. WWE Presents: Blood Money in the Bank
Honest question as i know nothing about this but isn't aew bank rolled by a pakistani? Pakistan is a huge ally of saudi arabia, what makes you think they wouldn't go there if offered.
I don't understand WWE's logic. They say they're going there to foster change yada yada.
But if Saudi Arabia is getting everything it wants right now without changing anything. What incentive is there to change?
Its like rewarding a child for bad behaviour. Forgive me if I'm wrong but didn't boycotts and being banned from sporting events work for apartheid South Africa?

Speaking of,
AEW Double Or Nothing. May 25. If any of yall want an alternative and want it that same month.
Honestly they are coming on at the perfect time in history. The WWE has never been more vulnerable.
Isn't that on the same weekend as AEW's Double or Nothing PPV in Vegas?
Edit: Nevermind. Later that month. But the Saudis are paying for an inferior version of the product since the Women's division is far better than anything the men have done from those who are willing to go (Daniel Bryan & John Cena).

The Greatest Royal Rumble was decent coming off the heels of Mania. Crown Jewel was not and honestly I predict these Saudi events are going to have a lot of duds vs. MOTY candidates. So if they want it to be a money grab, than it is what it is and hopefully the talent phones in their matches too.
isn't it bank rolled by his dad?
Shahid Khan is the lead investor and owner of the promotion
His dad moved to America in 1967. Went to school here, and then became a self made billionaire doing business here. He's an American.
Pakistan the country sucks, but the stereotyping you're doing is pretty fucking shitty. Stop it.
Call the event Cero MiedoFor a second, I legit though this was actually going to be called "Blood Money".
Hurry AEW. You're our only hope!
It's absolutely going to be phoned in, they are already getting garunteed money off the event so the wrestlers/producers are going to worry way more about being safe then any kind of match quality.
Sure I mean by then they'll probably have killed a quarter million Yemeni's so they could actually just build the ring out of human bones to make it as grotesque as possible.
Go full bore with supporting these monsters it's not like the rest of the country gives a shit considering we allow probably the wealthiest people on earth to prop up this farcical country with our guns and oil money.

And also I think the fans and more importantly those in charge over there are so hungry that right now they are just happy about the big names. They could work the most boring match and the crowd will be hot because they get two major events a year.
That adds to it as well, not only is the money garunteed; so are the pops/heat.
How many people pretending to be offended by this will be talking about Smackdown tonight and NXT tomorrow.
You can't just not watch the saudi show and pretend you aren't supporting their bullshit. If you watch WWE in any capacity at all, you are supporting a pro genocidal dictatorship company.

Isnt the contract for ten years? They're not backing out of it. I do wonder if they will just stop advertising it on western TV though. They had some huge programs for the first two, but you don't need it everytime especially if you're trying to hide that you're doing it.

Just asking questions?
This right here. WrestleEra is full of cowards and apologists. I'm so glad I left that community.
