The Night of Champions premium live event and the Smackdown
on the eve of the show will go ahead as planned in Riyadh
this coming weekend after some ease in the tensions in the
Middle East.
There was some hiccup yesterday as some crew who flew
earlier for production purposes got stuck at their layover
airport as most countries around Iran closed their airspace
after Iran launched an attack on a U.S. military base in
Qatar as retaliation.
But as things looked bleak, a ceasefire agreement between
Israel and Iran was quickly announced by President Donald
Trump.
WWE promoted both Smackdown and Night of Champions as taking
place from Saudi Arabia last night on Raw. For international
viewers, Smackdown will also air live on Netflix while it
will be on tape delay in the United States on USA Network.
