WWE Night of Champions is set to take place on May 27, 2023, at the Jeddah Superdome in Saudi Arabia. With the introduction of the new World Heavyweight Championship, fans are eagerly anticipating the event. Finn Balor, a top star on RAW and the inaugural Universal Champion, recently teased fans on Twitter after the unveiling of the title.
New World Heavyweight Championship Introduced
Triple H unveiled the new World Heavyweight Championship ahead of the Night of Champions event. The first superstar to hold the newly designed title will be crowned at the event. If Roman Reigns remains on SmackDown following the draft, then a superstar from RAW will likely win it.
Finn Balor’s Cryptic Tease
Finn Balor has his eyes set on the new title and is one of the top stars on RAW. He took to Twitter to post a photo to tease fans, hinting at history possibly repeating itself on May 27. Balor is one of the most deserving superstars on RAW and is considered a front runner to win the title, along with Seth Rollins, Cody Rhodes, and Drew McIntyre.
Night of Champions Replaces King & Queens of the Ring Event
Saudi Arabia was originally set to host the King & Queen of the Ring event on May 27, 2023. However, WWE recently changed the event’s name to Night of Champions. Fans believe the reason behind the name change could be due to Roman Reigns reaching an iconic milestone of holding the Universal Championship for 1000 days in a single reign. Another potential reason is the crowning of a new World Heavyweight Champion at the show.
