I wonder what would happen if the Saudi prince wanted the Road Warriors. Would they just throw Roadies face paint on the Viking Raiders? They could still get animal, and as for the other guy wasn't Heinrich a road warrior they could get him |

Goldberg vs. Bobby Lashley has been teased on social media and PWInsider.com notes that this could end up being the direction for WWE's event in Saudi Arabia on June 7th.
....huh.

I'm dying of not surprise that they might "encourage" Roman to go, which leads me to ask who else they're strongarming, especially since it appears to be an extinction burst of Vince's that brought us WWE's programming this past week. That would include those who may have had pull previously.
Currently, the only ones who can be confirmed as not going would be the women, the Canadians (Roode, Sami and KO), and certain allies of the global LGBTQ+ community (Balor). Almost certainly, if they can find a way to sneak those guys into Saudi Arabia and out again, WWE would be trying to work their magic on them, as well. WWE's getting quite desperate to meet the obligations they've taken on for themselves, while trying to fight off the looming shadow of a potential rival.

I loved the last Goldberg match. He ended on one of his best.
Is he seriously going to have another match? I genuinely don't think he has anything left to give.

Bryan refuses the last one I assume he will do the same |

That is one of the most unwatchable possible matchups I’ve ever heard of. I’ll pay the company their 9.99 not to go through with it. |

Bryan refuses the last one I assume he will do the same Last time, he had John Cena backing him up on the boycott. With Cena now inactive overall on the roster, I can see the company putting more pressure on Bryan to go, possibly with booking consequences if he doesn't. |

I get what your saying but Bryan seems to be a dude who sticks to his convictions |

This generation of wrestlers mostly don't care about booking consequences. They could bury Bryan for years and he could return to the indies as the biggest thing in wrestling. |

No way does Bryan appear.
Saudis are mass producers of fossil fuel.

I hope they treat this with the same contempt that they did with Crown Jewel.
