The WWE Women’s Champion is looking forward to making history in Riyadh.
WWE announced on September 12 that WrestleMania 43 will be held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in 2027, marking the first time the event will take place outside North America.
Speaking to Going Ringside, Tiffany Stratton expressed her excitement about returning to Riyadh for WrestleMania 43, adding that she can’t wait to be part of history at the event.
“I’m excited. The last time we were there I believe, we went on this little safari adventure, and I hope we get to do that again because that was super fun. I think Bianca mentioned women are making history over there, and I can’t wait to be a part of that myself. So I’m super excited and I can’t wait.”
