WWE is set to return to Saudi Arabia on Saturday, when Crown Jewel returns to Riyadh.
There are several big matches set for the show, including a World Heavyweight Championship bout, with Seth Rollins set to defend his championship against Drew McIntyre.
Rollins is no stranger to big WWE events in Saudi Arabia, and he’s about to set an impressive record for shows in the country.
Per WWEStats, this match at Crown Jewel will mark the 10th match Rollins has had in Saudi Arabia.
This match will also mark the fourth championship that Rollins has defended in the kingdom, with him previously defending the Raw Tag Team, Universal and Intercontinental Championships in the kingdom.
Rollins defended the Universal Championship against Baron Corbin at the 2019 Super Showdown event, and the Intercontinental Championship in a four-way Ladder match against Finn Balor, The Miz and Samoa Joe at the Greatest Royal Rumble in 2018.
Seth and Buddy Murphy also defended the Raw Tag Team Championship against the Street Profits at Super Showdown in 2020.
This year's #WWECrownJewel will be @WWERollins's 10th match in Saudi Arabia.
He has defended the Intercontinental, Universal & Raw Tag Titles in the nation, and will defend the World Heavywt Title there this weekend – making him the first to defend 4 different @WWE titles in SA.
