In the month of May, WWE is traveling around the world as they held a live event tour last week in the UK with the Raw brand before going to Puerto Rico for the Backlash PLE and will wrap up the month with Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia on May 27th.
However, the company is far from over with traveling overseas. They will run Money in the Bank in London in July.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported, "WWE has spoken with reps in Australia to gauge interest of a potential PLE event.”
WWE has only held one pay-per-view/premium live event in company history as WWE Super Show-Down took place on October 6, 2018, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne, Australia, with Raw, SmackDown, and 205 Live talent that featured ten matches on the card. Two of those bouts featured Australian wrestlers Buddy Murphy and The IIconics.
The event drew 70,309 people and aired on the WWE Network. It was headlined by Triple H defeating The Undertaker.
WWE also held WWE Global Warning Tour: Melbourne on August 10, 2002, at Colonial Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, which was later released on DVD, where in the main event, The Rock defeated Triple H and Brock Lesnar in a Triple Threat match to retain the WWE Undisputed Championship.
Here is the confirmed list of WWE premium live events for this year:
Saturday, May 27, 2023: Night of Champions - Jeddah SuperDome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Sunday, May 28, 2023: NXT Battle Ground in Lowell, Massachusetts at the Tsongas Center
Saturday, July 1, 2023: Money in the Bank - The O2 Arena in London, England
Saturday, August 5, 2023: WWE SummerSlam - Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan
