RIYADH: WWE Crown Jewel will take place at the Mohammed Abdo Arena in Riyadh on Thursday, Oct. 21, marking the second time the event has taken place in Saudi Arabia.
The date was confirmed by Saudi General Entertainment Authority in partnership with WWE after the event itself was announced August.
WWE Crown Jewel is set to be a signature event of the Riyadh Season and will feature WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar.
Additional details on the event’s matches and regional broadcast information will be announced shortly.
WWE has held three events in the Kingdom, starting with the 2018 Crown Jewel at King Saud University Stadium in Riyadh. This was followed by the Super ShowDown at King Abdullah International Stadium in Jeddah in 2019, where home favorite Mansoor won the 51-man Battle Royal. Super Showdown returned to Saudi in February 2020, this time at the Mohammed Abdo Arena.
