The popular topic among wrestling fans right now is whether or not the WWE Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia should still go on. This is because of all the controversy that is going on in Saudi Arabia right now.
Randy Orton was recently interviewed by TMZ. He was asked if he thinks that WWE should still go to Saudi Arabia for the Crown Jewel event.
Here is what Orton had to say:
“I think we should go. I think the only way to help with change over there is to go and not to cancel the trip.
Our girls performed in Abu Dhabi not too long ago, and I think we’ll be there eventually with Saudi and Crown Jewel.
That’s the goal is to make things better everywhere and I think us not going, it doesn’t help. Going helps.”
Orton was also asked if he thinks that the female talent will eventually get to wrestle in Saudi Arabia. Orton’s answer was “100%, yes”.
This comes after a report broke that suggested some of the WWE locker room was uncomfortable with going to Saudi Arabia for the show.
