During today’s Crown Jewel Kickoff event, WWE’s Chief Content Officer commented on the WWE Experience in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and questioned whether fans in the country would be interested in seeing some NXT talent appear at future shows.
“The Game” said, “WWE Experience is amazing. This is one of those things, I feel like for any true fan of WWE, you gotta’ come here at least once and experience this. It’s amazing. To go in and have ‘Taker make fun of you while you’re stuck in his maze over there is incredible. This whole place is off the chart. It all speaks to the vision of his excellency, of bringing us here. This is our twelfth time here, it’s an incredible experience every time, and it gets more and more incredible every year because of all of you. When we first started coming here, it was good, but every year, you get louder and louder, and your passion for WWE shines through, so thank you very much.”
When the crowd later chanted “NXT,” Triple H said he’d talk to Shawn Michaels and see what they could do. He stated,
“Who wants to see NXT here in Saudi Arabia? [Crowd cheers] I’ll talk to Shawn [Michaels] and see what we can do.”
