WWE has also mentioned several other names for this upcoming show that will feature the current WWE and the Universal Champion in action. You can check out the released statement of WWE as given below,
“WWE Superstars return to Jeddah
— The Saudi General Sports Authority, in partnership with WWE, will host an event at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Friday, June 7, at 8 p.m. AST. The event will feature WWE Superstars Roman Reigns, Undertaker, Kofi Kingston, Braun Strowman, Seth Rollins, Goldberg, AJ Styles, and Brock Lesnar, and stream live on WWE Network.

Last year in April, WWE hosted The Greatest Royal Rumble event in the same stadium which started the tradition of hosting Saudi Arabia show in a half-yearly basis. Later in November, Crown Jewel took place at the King Saud University Stadium in Riyadh. Overall, the upcoming show is going to be the third pay-per-view to take place in the middle east country.
Whether WWE has confirmed the main-event stars to feature in this event, we are yet to learn about any of the matches. The appearance of The Undertaker suggests that he will be wrestling in his next match on this show after Crown Jewel. So will be Brock Lesnar considering he is the biggest box-office attraction of the WWE anywhere around the world.
But the status of Goldberg is still unknown. He is no more of a regular performer and hence we can’t confirm whether he is coming back in competition or making a special appearance like Hulk Hogan did at Saudi Arabia. As of now, we will have to wait for Money in the Bank to pass by. Only then we can expect any confirmation in this regard.
