For the second time ever, a weekly WWE TV program will take place in Saudi Arabia.

WWE will host an episode of Monday Night Raw from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on November 3, emerging one night after the promotion’s annual Crown Jewel event from the Kingdom Arena. News of the wrestling doubleheader was revealed in a Riyadh Season press release on Wednesday.

WWE has visited Saudi Arabia at least once a year since 2018 as part of a partnership with the government. Their last trip came in May when they hosted the King and Queen of the Ring from Jeddah. The promotion also taped their first-ever episode of TV in the country as part of the trip, airing an episode of Smackdown from the venue one night before the Premium Live Event took place.

A similar back-to-back stretch of events will take place later this year when Crown Jewel takes place.
