WWE has yet to book multiple talents despite traveling for a showdown in Saudi Arabia for the upcoming Night of Champions premium live events. The company will stream the event on Peacock/WWE Network this Saturday, with thrilling matches planned; however, several wrestlers have not been advertised for the event.
Featured Matches at Night of Champions
The Night of Champions event will include matches such as Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa vs. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn for the Undisputed Tag Team Championship, Brock Lesnar vs. Cody Rhodes, and Seth “Freakin” Rollins vs. AJ Styles for the new World Heavyweight Championship. Other matchups include Trish Stratus vs. Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair vs. Asuka for the RAW Women’s Championship, and Rhea Ripley vs. Natalya over the SmackDown Women’s Championship.
Unbooked Wrestlers
PWInsider reports have suggested that Street Profits, Omos, Rick Boogs, Karrion Kross, and LA Knight have all traveled to Saudi Arabia, but no match has been advertised for them at the event. Although other bouts involving these WWE Superstars could be added to the calendar, it is more likely that they have traveled for advertising reasons.
Roman Reigns’ Championship Record
Current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns has proven to be a “needle mover” since capturing the title at Payback 2020. Reigns has defended his championship against the best in the business, including John Cena and Brock Lesnar, and separately against the current Undisputed Tag Team Champions, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. On May 27, 2023, Reigns will complete holding the world title for 1000 days, setting an impressive record on the Night of Champions.
It remains to be seen which superstar will face off against Roman Reigns after the premium live event in Saudi Arabia.
