While this year’s Mania received mixed reactions from fans and critics, fans are actually concerned about the status of next year’s show. The conflict in the Middle East has affected a lot of things in Saudi Arabia and also put WrestleMania 43 status in jeopardy. However, the TKO President and COO Mark Shapiro recently put all such claims to rest by providing a new update.

As reported by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Mark Shapiro stated that TKO is firmly moving ahead with their scheduled events in the country despite the ongoing chaos in the region at the recent Investors’ call. He noted that Saudi Arabia’s commitment to their shows is unwavering.

Fans are looking forward to seeing the Grandest Stage of Them All for the first time outside the United States next year.

The Rock vs Roman Reigns is expected to headline WWE WrestleMania 43

Saudi Arabia has been the destination for the biggest WWE shows for the last few years. The Stamford-based company always books some of their biggest matches for their Saudi events and the shows are headlined by their major stars.

It is a known fact that WWE has been planning to book Roman Reigns and The Rock in a singles match for a very long time now. However, the company hasn’t been able to book the match till now. WrestleMania 43 is the perfect stage for the company to book this match. Saudi shows are always the most lucrative for WWE and will be perfect stage for the Rock to fight his cousin.

It will be interesting to see if the Rock and Roman Reigns will face each other at WrestleMania 43 next year.
