I am pretty sure full-on Raw or Smackdown are not broadcast there. The Saudi-based shows tend to focus on big profile matchups minus a massive TV buildup narrative.
I just realised that the show is in Jeddah, where I think Toy-Fu Nick stayed.
EDIT: Watching SSD now.

Think I will be cancelling my network subs soon.
So disinterested with the current WWE product it's not even funny.

Sky is loosing the broadcast deal soon. My only fill of WWE is seeing what New Day are up to. Just my other half that watches it now.

i went to NJPW Royal Quest at the weekend, was a phenomenal night of wrestling! only downside was that kenta was visibly very concussed during patrt of the fight, it wasnt a good sign to be honest!

How did it go, Browny87?
Looking forward to the double bill of War Games and Survivor Series. AEW also continues to impress.

That angle is reminding me of the Kevin and Nancy Sullivan and Chris Benoit too angle from WCW that horribly backfired (especially for Kevin). That whole storyline was dead in the water to begin with.
Lio Rush has benefitted a lot from no longer being booked as Lashley's Salacious B. Crumb. I'm really enjoying his Cruiserweight reign right now.

Sadly Dad's medical predicament meant I couldn't in all good conscience go. Watched it last night though, fantastic card.
Think everyone on the card ended up in a better position than they were at the start (maybe Trent Seven excepted but he still looked strong).

It was good, although I was worried that Mandrews and that other streak of piss would win at one stage. Cannot abide that mod shite.

NXT Worlds Collide. Oooft. Absolutely loved Moustache Mountain v DIY and Undisputed Era v Imperium. {Spoiler}Surprised they went with Rhea v Toni as quickly as they did, there was mileage in a longer feud, but the decisive win and the bum slap suggest we are done.
Finn Backup winning the cruiserweight was also a shock, but then Angel Garza does have a personality so the best thing for him is to stay away from the cruiserweights. |

Royal Rumble 2020 {Spoiler}Reigns was always going to go over against Corbin in this one. Decent opener.
Women's Rumble - Beth Phoenix was a trooper, as that must have been a nasty cut on her head. Thought Alexa Bliss and Bianca Belair looked good. Loved the Otis/Mandy spot.
Charlotte winning was a daft decision, but you could tell they were setting it up for that. Bazler should have won, it made more sense. Big pop for Naomi, her annual Kofi spot took far too long to do, and she could easily have jumped from the table to the stairs. Odd.
Santina - funny spot, but you don't put that in near the end, you do that early on in the rumble. Toni Storm made her debut, and besides looking good she did nothing, bit of a waste, especially after World Collide, she could have done with something to get a bit of heat back.
Bayley v Lacey - I can't be arsed with this feud, I can't be arsed with Lacey. They fucked Bayley, she could have been a John Cena type and they fucked it.
Db v The Fiend - solid match, so far they seem to be doing well with the fiend and DB is just solid gold.
Becky v Asuka - good match, you knew it would be. Becky was always going to go over, as the Man is going to walk into Wrestlemania and job to Charlotte because Vince. I like Charlotte but she's already in that get tae fuck you are boring space that Randy Orton typically occupies.
Men's Rumble
Fuck me that was fun, they made Brock look like an utter monster. John Morrison you will be midcard my friend, solid midcard. Keith Lee looked good, I only have one gripe about Keith Lee - wear a cup, I do not need to see the shape ofyour oul fella constantly, and once you see it, it draws the eye. Figured whoever threw out Brock was going to win and it was Drew. Back the Mc. Absolutely made him. Aside from that he had a good solid showing in the match. Disappointed the Ryder Revolution hasn't recommenced.
What a pop for Edge, shame the camera work was all over the fucking shop. the rated RKO reunion was fun, and absolutely loved Randy's reaction after he was eliminated. The most entertaining Orton has been in years. Edge looked good, be interesting to see the post Orton programme. Teased a wee AJ feud, I could live with that.
Was worried when Rollins came out and he had the goon squad eliminating folks there would be shenanigans, but thankfully there was none of that.
Drew picks up the win and a Drew/Brock main event is going to be damn good.

Without a crowd. Not so good, but decent enough considering.
