Report: WWE roster left Saudi Arabia before Riyadh missile attack
WWE wrestlers reportedly departed Saudi Arabia before attacks on Riyadh’s financial district on Sunday, November 8, 2026, which damaged several buildings, including the Aramco skyscraper. According to PWInsider’s Mike Johnson, WWE talent arrived in South Carolina on Sunday following Saturday’s Crown Jewel event, although some production staff may have remained in Riyadh to dismantle equipment. No reports indicate anyone associated with WWE was affected by the attacks. Some wrestlers reportedly travelled directly to and from Riyadh by private plane, while most flew into a neighbouring country before taking a bus to the city. Roman Reigns, Liv Morgan, Penta and Oba Femi are among those advertised for Monday’s Raw in Greenville, South Carolina.
Wrestling Fan Scammed by Paige Impersonator
Former WWE star Paige, also known as Saraya, has warned fans about online impersonators after meeting a man at Rhode Island Comic Con who had reportedly lost a substantial amount of money to a scammer pretending to be her. The fan said he spent about eight months communicating with the impersonator before discovering the deception. In a video posted on X, Paige clarified that her only social media accounts are under the name Saraya on X, Instagram and TikTok, stressing that she does not operate any private or alternative accounts.
She urged fans to remain vigilant and expressed sympathy for the victim. The incident follows a similar case in September, when a fan in Pittsburgh reportedly lost $427,000 to someone impersonating Rhea Ripley.
