Due to take place on Saturday 28th from Riyadh Saudi Arabia but a few issues are occurring

BREAKING NEWS: The United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar have announced a complete suspension of all civilian flights through their airspace until further notice

Me_Grapes · 23-06-2025 09:12PM

So Night of Champions will most likely take place in the US now

Punk has sold his soul for no reason

Alexa, play the theme for Curb Your Enthusiasm 😄

JP Liz V1 · 23-06-2025 11:18PM

Chicago?

Are all champions to feature in title matches?

PTH2009 · 23-06-2025 11:52PM

Apparently not been moved or cancelled

TKO are a beast for $$$

CastorTroy · 23-06-2025 11:54PM

From what I see online there are no plans for a change in venue as of now.

PTH2009 · 24-06-2025 09:30AM

Match card

Necro · 24-06-2025 09:39AM

It's a decent card. I just struggle to get very interested for Saudi shows.

JP Liz V1 · 24-06-2025 11:04AM

Nothing for Iyo or the tag champs

Dirty Dom also 'staying home'

Loughc · 24-06-2025 02:28PM

Night of champions*

*well 2 title matches

CastorTroy · 24-06-2025 03:09PM

Raquel is a champion. So 3 champions. 😀 But yeah they got the bare minimum singles champs so they can validly use the plural.

Fair play to Dom and AJ if they refused for safety

Petermc83 · 25-06-2025 11:24AM

Night of Champions used to be a card full of title matches… it just goes to show you how low the TKO/WWE will go for money.

not to have IYO on the card is a terrible disservice. She really should be backed but her booking has been crap since she won the belt.

Same as last time.

It is difficult for her to get priority in the booking.

No promo ability (in English) really holds her back. Asuka back makes it worse as she play the unhinged character so well and there is no room for Iyo to do that. Too small to be a silent, monster type and the silly/smiley babyface has no legs - it worked on Mania build as two other people could do most of the talking.

Becky being back and the IC title being featured so heavily recently has really hurt her too. Iyo got so over in the six months prior to WM by simply having a great match every week on Raw. Just keep doing that. Plenty of viable opponents there, just put her in matches and let her do what she does best.

DM_7 · 26-06-2025 12:06PM

That is true re Becky but also why Iyo will always struggle to get priority when it comes to deciding who to features. When Becky or Rhea or Liv (now injured) are there and then they already have plenty of people to get good matches from, that can feature in multiple parts of a show, will they look to feature Iyo?

A look at cage match suggests she was not prominent on RAW for the 6 months before Mania as a singles wrestler and spent a lot of time in tag matches before winning the title.

Apple Dumpling · 27-06-2025 04:02PM

Punk really is deep throating that blood money covered dick this afternoon.

JP Liz V1 · 28-06-2025 04:49PM

Do we think Seth or Roman is interfering in Cena Punk , or Ron Truth ?

Necro · 28-06-2025 07:13PM

Didn't really enjoy the Cody/Randy match. Was really slow and ponderous for the most part. Crowd seemed to be into it though. I kinda feel they missed a trick with Sami here, he's mega over in Saudi.

Street fight was middling too. Decent use of the avalanche riptide for the finish but again, it's not a match I'll be thinking about again now it's over.

Cotts72 · 28-06-2025 07:58PM

Finally Hikuleo has arrived but appears to be getting a new name as Cole didn't have a clue what to refer to him as and ended up mumbling 🤣 wonder are we getting some more Samoans to side with Jacob? Zilla , Jimmy Uso and Lance Anoai maybe

Necro · 28-06-2025 08:03PM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/123587770#Comment_123587770

It makes sense Solo having the title and Jacob chasing for a while I think. I did giggle at Cole trying to get the name out and saying it wrong twice 🤣

No idea who wins this one. Asuka/Iyo at SummerSlam seems more likely?

Cotts72 · 28-06-2025 08:10PM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/123587793#Comment_123587793

I'd have thought jade wins and goes over Tiffany only for Naomi to cash in

Necro · 28-06-2025 08:16PM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/123587822#Comment_123587822

Well you were right! Sloppy enough finish to that match. Jade favouring her leg too hopefully not an injury

kurt_angle · 28-06-2025 08:29PM

Wrestlemania main event right here.

kurt_angle · 28-06-2025 08:40PM

maybe 5 years ago. Painful enough watch now. Those abdominal stretch on cenas back is embaressing

RobbingBandit · 28-06-2025 08:48PM

Beats Goldberg main eventing anything hands down, Saudi shows have had some notorious matches over the years

Necro · 28-06-2025 09:02PM

Mad amount of interference there but a decent match all the same. Didn't expect a title switch on the show so I suppose Solo winning is a surprise (though the right call)

Cotts72 · 28-06-2025 09:04PM

Penta and Sami interfering was pointless, thought weight get the OTC but I think we'll get that at summerslam or leading up

JP Liz V1 · 28-06-2025 09:11PM

I don't think Punk and Cena are over, maybe Punk takes on Seth for his MITB contract at Summerslam, I didn't expect Penta, overall a chaotic enjoyable main event, Cena's heel expression, like a possessed demon 😁

Must not forget Charles Robinson running and taking a bump

PTH2009 · 28-06-2025 10:11PM

Only back from Thurles, Up the Deise

Looking forward to watching it later (or hungover tomorrow haha)

JP Liz V1 · 28-06-2025 11:05PM

I don't think Jade is ready for the push , but heel Naomi is , hope she gets the title
