Got a serious question here and I’m not looking for the answer of that they shouldn’t have any shows in Saudi Arabia because of there government.
That said, the Saudi shows have been on Friday during the day in the US. When SDL moves to fix it will be on a Friday. I wouldn’t imagine they can put them on a plane and fly to Saudi for a Saturday or a Sunday show (get back in time for Raw). So how do they handle this?

Just fill it with 50 year olds who aren’t part of any of the roster.

If both shows are on friday WWE would either tape the show or get the top talent from SD.
of course FOX would be pissed but Vince wont care in face of all the blood.money

It would be a good time to run shows in the UK. Both shows are pretaped for those shows already and itsl also conveint to time abroad shows at the same time. I'm not sure if Smackdown would still air of Friday or not, but a mini European tour on the way to Saudi could be a thing.

They could do the Saudi show with mostly Raw guys and legends, and then have Smackdown in the US but it would be later enough that people had a chance to watch the Saudi show on the Network if they wanted.

The easiest solution is to try to convince Fox that it's only going to happen 2 times out of the year and let them pre-tape SD on Blood Money Weekends.

What if Fox let them air the Blood Money shows as an episode of Smackdown?

Given how awesome Evolution was and the fact that several of their male stars refuse to go or are not allowed to go, they could still put on a pretty good Smackdown. Get the people who put Evolution together to run that episode of Smackdown and it's probably turn out great.

For the Saudi shows that happen in November, WWE could hold a Saudi event on the last Friday of October so it coincides with the World Series, which would override one episode of SmackDown.
WWE could air a taped SmackDown on the Thursday of that week to keep the "streak" alive. (World Series games go Tuesday-Wednesday, Friday-Saturday-Sunday, Tuesday-Wednesday.)

Plus I'm sure the contracts for those shows would prevent something like that. I don't think it would go over well with Fox's audience but I don't think the company themselves would have any objections. Fox is in bed with Trump who is in bed with the Saud family. WWE doing blood money shows really only closes the circle.
