With Night of Champions around the corner and the possibly (HOPEFULLY), that the event might be cancelled, let us discuss the idea of wrestling in forbidden territories. For decades wrestling events ended up going beyond thr states and into problematic territories, that either put the wrestlers lives on the line, or make their experiences a living hell.
For instance:
The horror stories of this event from wrestlers not being able to do much, the strict policies of the country, and the drama (2 Cold fitting to catch a case in North Korea of all places
).
Fast forward to the WWE saudi events where wrestlers have to be on p's and q's about political agendas, along with the promotion having to big up the propaganda. Hell, bad enough the women's division have to dress up like VR Troopers because of "skin" and Allah could be blushing. So with that being said, when enough is enough
?
shyt is like if WWE decided to do a show in Iraq in 1991 with Slaughter turning face and screaming "death to Iraqis". Money is money, but life and reputation is temporary.
