It was the first time the WWE’s LIVE event visited the Kingdom, following on from the Abu Dhabi event that delighted avid followers in the UAE earlier this year.

According to local reports, thousands flocked through the King Abdullah Sports City Sports Hall gates in Jeddah over the course of the three days’ action that ran from Thursday 8 to Saturday 10 October.

Superstars in attendance included WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, United States champion John Cena, Chris Jericho, Dean Ambrose, Ryback, Big Show and The Miz.

Fans were treated to a street fight between Rollins and Cena, a repeat of the same matchup that took place at the Zayed Tennis Stadium in the UAE capital in February.

Nonetheless, fans were left delighted by the action, the Saudi Gazette quoting 21-year-old Muhannad Abdul Wahab as saying: “I always wanted to watch Cena in action and am very glad to see him live here in Jeddah.”

The same paper spoke to Abdullah Banajah, who took his two sons along to the event, who said: “That was awesome and the crowd went berserk watching the fight. John Cena is very popular and he is the main reason my sons insisted to watch this event.”

Banajah’s 11-year-old son, Nader, told the Gazette: “I love WWE show on TV but this time I got to see them in real. A really enjoyable experience.”

The Middle East is an emerging market for the WWE and one they are tapping into with more and more urgency.

As well as the two live shows in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, OSN also brought the WWE Network to fans in the UAE, while the company also has a permanent home in Dubai.
