The WWE Royal Rumble is reportedly coming to Saudi Arabia.
Mike Johnson at PWInsider reports that the 2026 WWE Royal Rumble will be held in Saudi Arabia.
WWE has not confirmed the location of the 2026 Royal Rumble.
This would mark the first time the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view/PLE has been held outside of the United States.
The report states, "An official announcement could come as soon as this Monday's Raw Netflix premiere."
Turki Alalshikh, the chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, said in May 2024 that they were looking to bring WrestleMania or the Royal Rumble to Saudi. Turki noted that the deal could happen in 2026 or 2027.
WWE's deal with Saudi runs through 2028. WWE has annually hosted multiple events per year in Saudi Arabia as part of the agreement.
