Can it get worse for WWE in Saudi Arabia?

By Scott Keith on October 18, 2018

You bet!
The NY Times just posted an insane article with the ugly details of Saudi Arabia’s government torturing & killing a journalist: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/17/world/europe/turkey-saudi-khashoggi-dismember.html
At this point, is there any good way out for WWE? Theyve waited too long to do anything.
I mean – this show can’t happen, right??
Look, let me explain in the wise words of JBL: They have to go over there because they’re trying to encourage change from within! Also, they ran a show right after 9/11, and that’s totally the same thing!
Anyway, for those of us in the real world, the insanity factor was upped even more this morning on Observer radio, because now analysts are saying that they’re only going to make a couple of million dollars in profit on these shows, although it’s not clear if that just means this year’s shows due to startup costs, or if it means there’s escalators in the money as the deal goes on.
Also, in case it wasn’t crystal clear from my stance on the show in general, there’s no fucking way I’m reviewing or even watching this show. In fact I wish I hadn’t wasted four hours on Greatest Royal Rumble.
