What PLE is booked for September, Saudi? India?

 

[Chris]

Thought that was when they were supposed to do that India show

 

[Jimmy King]

No San Diego dates

Hopefully something in November or December.

According to Brandon Thurston of WrestleNomics, WWE is planning to hold its next Saudi show on Saturday, November 4.

WWE will likely tape the November 3rd episode of SmackDown the prior week at the October 27th SmackDown event due to the long flight to Saudi Arabia, something WWE has done in the past.​

Shame they're not doing SmackDown there the night before​

Shame they're not doing SmackDown there the night before​

It is probably logistical. They won't run a Smackdown in the stadium, and of they ran the a 2nd show in a second venue they'd need 2 rings, 2 sets, etc. Not to mention Saudi likely isn't paying for that in their contract. That being said if possibly I'd run SD in Europe that week.

I'd assume they have a ring and set in a European warehouse for when they run European tours but to bring everything to Saudi would be difficult.

I don't follow? What's the logistical issue to running in the same arena the night before for SmackDown when they just did the exact same thing for SD/MITB and SD/Backlash?

The Saudi shows are not arena shows, they're stadium shows.
