• Women Set To Wrestle In Saudi Arabia In 2020
According to Brad Shepard, the women of WWE will be able to wrestle in Saudi Arabia starting next year:
“According to a source in WWE, the General Sports Authority (GSA) and WWE have reached a deal on women’s matches for future events in Saudi Arabia in 2020.
I’m told the deal was overseen by Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud himself.”
