The wrestling world is abuzz with the latest announcement from WWE that the highly anticipated Night of Champions event is set to take place in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on May 27th. Despite being an early afternoon event for fans in North America, the show promises to be loaded with exciting matches and plenty of drama.
As the event draws closer, fans have been eagerly speculating about who will be on the card and what kind of matches we can expect to see. Given the event’s name, Night of Champions, there are countless possibilities for what could happen.
To shed some light on the matter, Ringside News reached out to WWE to confirm some rumors that had been circulating. After speaking with a tenured member of the creative team, they were able to confirm that Roman Reigns will be one of the stars working the Night of Champions show in Saudi Arabia.
This news has sent shockwaves through the wrestling world, as Reigns is currently one of the biggest names in the industry. However, it’s important to note that Reigns will not be working the Backlash show in Puerto Rico on May 6th, instead choosing to wait until May 27th to make his mark in Jeddah.
While the identity of Reigns’ opponent has yet to be confirmed, there are a few contenders who could be in the running. Fans will have to wait and see how the Bloodline saga unfolds, but it’s clear that the drama is far from over.
Interestingly, there are also rumors that Sami Zayn could be on the card for the Saudi Arabian event as well. After fans chanted for him before Crown Jewel, this would undoubtedly make a lot of people in Saudi Arabia very happy if it happens. Regardless of who else appears on the card, fans can expect to see the Tribal Chief himself, Roman Reigns, in action at Night of Champions.
