Despite travel warnings against going to Saudi Arabia, WWE Crown Jewel is still set to take place in Riyadh on November 7.
A few days ago, the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh was hit by strikes from Yemen’s Houthi forces, with the U.S. Department of State raising the travel risk status to Saudi to Level 3.
It’s very rare that WWE cancels shows based on situations like this and considering the amount of money in play, WWE will likely push forward to host Crown Jewel in Riyadh.
The show is still 45 days away and a lot can change along the way, but one way or another, Crown Jewel will take place somewhere due to contractual obligations WWE has with both Netflix and ESPN.
Tickets for Crown Jewel have not gone on sale yet, but it’s typical for Saudi shows, which have no problem filling up the seats.
