For the last three shows WWE has put on in Saudi Arabia, the female portion of their roster has been noticeably absent.
Earlier this year at Super Showdown, it was reported that WWE was working hard to cut a deal with the government to allow Alexa Bliss and Natalya to compete on the show. However, nothing came of it.
Yesterday Lana, Natalya and Lacey Evans were pictured in Saudi Arabia, leading some to speculate that WWE was once again trying to get a women’s match on the card.
Now, WWE has announced that Lacey Evans and Natalya will be going one-on-one at Crown Jewel tomorrow in the first women’s match in the country’s history.

WWE are often given a lot of stick for their Saudi shows, so it is nice to see them actually working towards making a change in the country.
WrestleTalk.com will have live coverage of tomorrow’s Crown Jewel show.
