WWE News, WWE Rumors, Wrestling News, Wrestling Rumors lead today’s biggest discussion points as new reports cillian murphy suggest WWE is exploring a potential final match for The Rock in Saudi Arabia, speculation grows over a possible Saudi-backed WWE purchase, and multiple major WWE returns are being lined up for the 2026 Royal Rumble.
New reporting indicates WWE may be considering one last in-ring match for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, potentially at WrestleMania 43 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. While The Rock is not expected to wrestle at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas, discussions reportedly involve a significant offer tied to WrestleMania’s first-ever Saudi Arabian edition. With WWE focused on presenting a truly global spectacle, a final match for The Rock on an international stage is being viewed internally as a fitting send-off — though nothing has been finalized.
At the same time, speculation surrounding Saudi Arabia’s relationship with WWE has intensified. Jonathan Coachman has claimed that backstage conversations have begun regarding the possibility of Saudi Arabia purchasing WWE, pointing to the Kingdom’s long-term partnership with the company and upcoming major events as potential indicators. Coachman framed the 2026 Royal Rumble as a test run for larger ambitions, including WrestleMania in the region. However, it’s important to note that these claims remain unverified, with no confirmation from WWE, TKO Group Holdings, or Saudi officials.
Meanwhile, WWE is reportedly planning a stacked 2026 Royal Rumble card. According to WrestleVotes Radio, multiple high-profile names are scheduled for the event, including Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton, Chad Gable, Jacob Fatu, LA Knight, Dominik Mysterio, and Tiffany Stratton. With WWE returning to Saudi Arabia for one of its most important events, the company appears focused on star power, major moments, and surprise returns.
