WWE targeting Paris for WWE PLE
Added 2023-10-25 16:27:00 +0000 UTCOn Monday's Fightful Raw post-show we said we'd have news on Fightful Select about and underserved region (NOT UNDESERVED) getting a PLE.
On Wednesday, WWE announced an August 31 show for Berlin, Germany, titled Bash in Berlin. While that was a show we were referring to, that wasn't the only one we've heard. With WWE returning to the UK in 2023 for Money in The Bank, constantly going to Saudi Arabia, and announcing Elimination Chamber for Australia, don’t expect WWE to slow down doing major overseas events.
Some internal schedules in the company also have WWE Backlash listed for Paris, France in Spring of 2024, though Fightful has yet to confirm that it is finalized. We can, however, confirm that it's been discussed heavily. Names of shows can change until they're finalized.

2023-10-25 18:53:08 +0000 UTCI believe Nick Khan has already mentioned something like this as an idea when the merger happened.

2023-10-25 18:38:50 +0000 UTCJust a thought: UFC does Fight Week in July in Vegas. NXT event on Friday, Have UFC on Saturday Night and a WWE PLE on Sunday. It would make sense to have them together

2023-10-25 16:54:09 +0000 UTCTime for Becky, Sheamus and Finn to pull a Drew and lobby the front office to do a PPV in Ireland. This is getting absurd at this point.

2023-10-25 16:51:48 +0000 UTCBacklash would be cool in Paris, but I really liked the vibes it had in Puerto Rico. It would be cool if Paris had its own name like they just did in Germany.

2023-10-25 16:30:50 +0000 UTCWWE doesn’t have a French wrestler, but have two French Canadians. They can always hire back Amale Dib from NXT UK. She should not have been let go in the first place.
