With the Royal Rumble taking place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia,
WWE is heading across the Atlantic for two weeks of build-up
and an 11-event tour in Europe.
WWE will tape four television shows as well, two Raw and two
Smackdown, but the announcement got some boos from the
French
crowd live as France is not part of this tour.
The tour kicks off on Thursday, January 8 with a show at the
Quaterback Immobelien Arena in Leipzig, Germany. Smackdown
is
taped from the Uber Arena in Berlin, Germany on Friday,
January 9.
Two non-televised live events will take place in the
weekend,
with Glasgow, Scotland hosting at the OVO Hydro on Saturday,
January 10, and then the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, Denmark,
on Sunday, January 11.
On Monday, January 12, Dusseldorf, Germany hosts Raw at the
PSD Bank Dome and then two house shows follow on Tuesday,
January 13 at the SAP Arena in Mannheim, Germany and Utilita
Arena in Newcastle, England on
Thursday, January 15.
Smackdown will head to the OVO Arena Wembley in London,
England on Friday, January 16 and then it’s off to Gdansk,
Poland for a show on Saturday, January 17 at the Ergo Arena
and on Sunday, January 18, it’s Nottingham, England at the
Motorpoint Arena.
The tour wraps up on Monday, January 19 in Belfast, Northern
Ireland at the SSE Arena with a live Raw.
