The next pay-per-view event in WWE is all set to emanate from Saudi Arabia on June 7th. The company named this one Super ShowDown that is similar to last year’s global event in Australia. But this time the show is emanating from the middle-east country that already has produced fan backlash. It all started with the Jamal Khashoggi controversy from 2018 that is yet to be over.

Money is the prime reason why WWE will continue hosting shows in this country. Otherwise, Saudi Arabia is a country which follows strict rules which is hard to maintain for the superstars. It’s pretty weird to hear that WWE has handed over some special instructions to the superstars that prohibit their natural movements after arriving in the country. This can receive negative responses, as well. But there’s no other way to make the Saudi people happy.
In a report from Rajah.com, we got to know that WWE has received the strict rulebook before visiting Saudi Arabia for Super ShowDown. There are tweets available by the source mentioning the dos and don’ts that might surprise the people. But then again you have to follow those while visiting a country like this where people are deeply religious.
You can check the following rules that WWE stars will have to follow as mentioned by the source,
Do not travel to Mecca or Medina or visit any mosques
Do not sign anything in Arabic
Do not bring any pets
Driving is not recommended
Avoid beckoning with fingers and crossing legs during meetings
Avoid entering an elevator full of locals of the opposite gender
Avoid street vendors and be wary of “camel products”
Do not point at anyone or show the soles of your shoes
The main event of the Super ShowDown event is also official. WWE has announced The Undertaker will take on WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg in a first-time ever match. Triple H goes one-on-one against Randy Orton. Alongside this, a 50-man Battle Royal will also take place similar to last year’s Greatest Royal Rumble event.
