Raquel Rodriguez Believes Women Will Headline A Future Saudi Arabia Event

WWE

Raquel Rodriguez believes that in the future, a women’s division match will main event a premium live event in Saudi Arabia.

Three women’s bouts took place at Elimination Chamber in February, including a Raw Women’s Title bout and an Elimination Chamber match. WWE had to build up to this, with the first few Saudi Arabia shows in 2017 and 2018 not featuring any women’s matches.

Speaking with NBC Sports Boston, Raquel Rodriguez noted that she can see women headlining a Saudi show one day. Rodriquez noted:

“I was very excited about the last trip they took to Saudi Arabia because they took so many women with them and we had so much of our women’s roster representing over there. It was so great. So yeah, I think women are gonna main event one of these Crown Jewel events for sure.”

The next WWE Saudi Arabia show will be Crown Jewel on November 5. The premium live event will be headlined by an Undisputed WWE Universal Championship bout, with Roman Reigns set to defend his gold against Logan Paul.

Before then, WWE will host its Extreme Rules premium live event. Check out the announced card for the October 8 premium live event right here.
