NY: Fanatics Fest NYC 2024 – Day 2
(Riyadh) — The WWE says it’s keeping a close eye on it’s wrestlers who are in the Middle East for a big show next weekend. They want to make sure the WWE stars in Saudi Arabia are in no danger after the US attacked Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday. The wrestling entertainment giant has two shows scheduled for this Friday and Saturday in Riyadh, SmackDown and the Night of Champions. As of now, the shows are still on.
The WWE says it’s most concerned about an official warning from Iran that said “every American citizen or military personnel in the Middle East is now on Tehran’s target” after the U.S. strike.
Three title bouts , including WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton have attracted a lot of fan interest around the globe. The WWE plans to show the matches back in the U.S. on the USA Network.
