WWE Superstars were stuck in Saudi Arabia after the pay-per-view as their flight was delayed. Reports suggest that there were some issues with their plane, causing a delay.

Talking about the incidents, AJ Styles said on his Mixer stream:

"We’ll find out as we go along why things happened or we won’t. I don’t know what’s gonna happen going forward. It’s gonna be what it’s gonna be. And If I did find out and I was offended, I would go to the source. Believe me on that one."

While rumors suggest that the relationship between WWE and the Saudi General Entertainment Authority has been bad, the company has announced that the deal has been expanded! Their press release said:

Following the historic Crown Jewel event in Riyadh, WWE (NYSE: WWE) and the Saudi General Entertainment Authority (GEA) have expanded their live event partnership through 2027 to include a second annual large-scale event. WWE and GEA also continue to work towards the completion of a media agreement in the MENA region. This long-term partnership demonstrates WWE and GEA’s commitment to bring sports entertainment to the region and supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.
