Absolutely. After years of nothing happening on UK shows, the last few years they have put effort into making them special. They even did a world title change here. A UK crowd would be hot for almost any WWE talent because they aren't here often, and making it a legit pay per view means plot development may actually happen. Plus bear in mind the whole UK is the size of like, a small US state. For a legit PPV, people would come from everywhere. ... Including the rest of Europe. I only didn't say that because of Covid, but you are right.

So that rules out a Summerslam return for the UK.
...Extreme Rules in Cardiff?

This is where Drew needs to win the title if Roman is losing anytime, not exactly Bulldog in front of home fans but close enough for people to talk about it.

So that’s three consecutive stadium shows with MITB at Allegiant Stadium in Vegas, Summerslam at Nissan Stadium in Nashville and this one at Principality Stadium. It’s kinda crazy they waited so long to go all out like this because they could realistically have done it years ago.
Roman v Drew is a good bet here. It sucks that they released Tegan because her battling back from all her injuries and finally challenging for a world title here would have been a hell of a story.
If this is successful hopefully it’ll be a regular thing with at least one major PPV outside North America each year (not counting Saudi Arabia). The Super Showdown event in Australia a few years ago was a lot of fun and there are so many countries who after just getting intermittent house shows for decades would love to get an actual important show and would turn out in big numbers.

The Super Showdown event in Australia a few years ago was a lot of fun and there are so many countries who after just getting intermittent house shows for decades would love to get an actual important show and would turn out in big numbers. You'd think so, it felt like there was hunger for a stadium show in the UK since Summerslam 92 ended and even when business was down in America, there were a good few moments when WWE should have pounced on the opportunity to do it. But yeah, at the very least doing another show in Australia makes sense considering how well Super Showdown was and it was a cool show to watch in the morning with breakfast.

Awesome news! I doubt I'll be making the trip to Wales, but I'm so happy for all of the WWE fans here that have been waiting far too long for another big show.
