— WWE made a historic announcement on Friday afternoon, revealing that WrestleMania will head outside of North America for the first time ever. WWE WrestleMania 43 is set to take place in Saudi Arabia in 2027.
The news was revealed during a closed press conference in Las Vegas — with no media or fans in attendance — held ahead of WWE x AAA Worlds Collide: Las Vegas. The event featured appearances from Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Bianca Belair, The Undertaker, Seth Rollins, Logan Paul, Liv Morgan, and Charlotte Flair.
When a video package promoting WrestleMania 43’s move to Saudi Arabia aired during Worlds Collide, fans responded with loud boos and chants of “You sold out.”

— The involvement of Demonito did not help The Judgment Day, as they fell to Lola Vice & Mr. Iguana at WWE x AAA: Worlds Collide. Vice and Iguana defeated Finn Balor and Roxanne Perez at Friday’s event in a match that saw both La Yesca and Demonito make their marks, as well as Raquel Rodriguez.
Iguana and his puppet ultimately took out Balor and his puppet with dives to the outside and Perez nearly got a pin on Vice with her feet on the ropes, but Vice escaped and hit her backfist for the win. After the match, NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne stared off with Vice from the audience.
Vice will battle Jayne for the title at NXT: No Mercy later this month.
