Roman Reigns is currently the reigning WWE Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. It seems that the company has a lot of plans to nail down on the road to WrestleMania. Even after the massive plans in April, WWE could already chalk out plans to make another Saudi Arabia trip the next month in May. That being said, the company doesn’t have any plans other than that for Saudi Arabia.
Roman Reigns plans revealed
WWE is planning to make a Saudi Arabia return in May for another event. Amid this, a report is going around that said WWE is planning for “Roman Reigns main eventing the Saudi Arabia show in May. It’s currently unknown what the PPV will be called, but the Ringside News noted that it will not be surprising if it was ‘WrestleMania: Backlash’ in Saudi Arabia.” The outlet has been able to confirm that the company is not thinking that far ahead right now.
Ringside News reported that a tenured member of the WWE creative team confirmed to that “there has not been any discussion as to the talent going to Saudi Arabia yet.” This is true, especially regarding the name of the pay-per-view being “WrestleMania Backlash,” and who will compete at the event.
At this point, there have been “no creative discussion, no discussion with the Saudis as to who will headline, or no forms filled out for visas.” The simple fact is that WWE is not “there yet” regarding those plans.
