World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has announced that the company will be holding an open tryout session for an upcoming return to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia later this summer. This will consist of a four-day tryout to take place over June for up to 50 athletes from Saudi Arabia. Triple H commented on the announcement, which you can see below.
WWE to hold largest talent tryout in Saudi Arabia
WWE today announced that it will return to Saudi Arabia in search of the next generation of Superstars by holding an open talent tryout in Riyadh. The four-day tryout in early June will give up to 50 athletes from Saudi Arabia the opportunity to showcase their abilities with the goal of earning a WWE Talent Development contract and training fulltime.
“We are excited to return to Saudi Arabia following the success of our first tryout in 2018 where we recruited a variety of elite athletes from the Middle East, including standout talent Mansoor, who has already played a meaningful role in various WWE events in Saudi Arabia,” said Paul “Triple H” Levesque, World Wrestling Entertainment Executive Vice President, Talent, Live Events & Creative. “I have a message for every athlete and performer in Saudi Arabia who has a dream of becoming a WWE Superstar: WWE is coming to Riyadh to help you make that happen. This is your chance to take an opportunity and one day you could be walking down the ramp as a WWE Superstar while thousands of fans chant your name.”
Beginning today, the official WWE recruitment website at www.wweperformancecenter.com is available in Arabic. Tailored to athletes who are interested in pursuing a career in sports-entertainment, the website features information about the WWE recruitment process and provides a detailed look at what day-to-day life is like for members of the Performance Center roster.
The online hub includes step-by-step instructions on how to apply for the tryout, as well as access to the official application form; an overview of the many resources available to WWE Performance Center recruits, from professional development and life-skills services, to in-ring training and on-site medical care; photos of the entire Performance Center roster; biographies of the WWE PC’s industry-leading coaching staff; testimonials from Raw and SmackDown Superstars; and videos from past tryouts, both those held at the Performance Center and internationally.
The first WWE talent tryout in Jeddah in April 2018 resulted in three participants signing Developmental Contracts. Today, Mansoor, Faisal Kurdi and Hussain Al Dagal are training fulltime at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, U.S. Mansoor won the first-ever 50-Man Battle Royal at WWE Super ShowDown in Jeddah last June.
The tryout in Riyadh is the latest example of WWE’s global talent recruiting efforts. In recent years, WWE has scouted rugby and soccer players from Europe, kabaddi and kushti athletes from India, and martial artists and boxers from China. WWE has held similar tryouts in London, Dubai, Tokyo, Jeddah, Cologne, Santiago and Mumbai.
Additionally, the promotion will be returning to Saudi Arabia this month for Super ShowDown 2020. The event is scheduled for Thursday, February 27 at the Mohammed Abdu Arena. It will be broadcast live on the Network at 12:00 pm EST. Here’s the lineup:
* Champion Brock Lesnar vs. Ricochet
* Universal Champion “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt vs. Goldberg
* Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin in a Steel Cage Match
* SmackDown Tag Team Champions The New Day vs. The Miz & John Morrison
* AJ Styles vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Rusev vs. R-Truth vs. Erick Rowan vs. United States Champion Andrade in the first-ever * Tuwaiq Trophy Gauntlet Match
* Women’s SmackDown Champion Bayley vs. either Carmella or Naomi

Liv Morgan on Preparing for WWE Elimination Chamber, Her Character Changing, the Lana Storyline
Liv Morgan recently spoke with Chuck Carroll of CBS Sports to promote Sunday’s WWE Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. Morgan is set to compete in the RAW Women’s Chamber match with Ruby Riott, Sarah Logan, Shayna Baszler, Natalya and WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Asuka. The winner will challenge RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 36.
Liv was asked about preparing for a unique match like the Elimination Chamber.
“I don’t think you do,” she answered. “I don’t think you do. How do you prepare? Do you throw yourself at fences? Steel link fences? There is no vibration. It’s just, go in there with the mindset that you know you’re going to get hurt, so how much are you willing to withstand to be the last one standing? To go onto WrestleMania to have the opportunity to compete with Becky Lynch for the Raw Women’s Championship. So I think it’s just the preparation of, ‘How much am I willing to go through?” And for me personally, I’d go through it all.’”
Morgan was also asked about her current character refresh, and if this was a concept she came up with, or a collaboration. The former Riott Squad member said it was time for her character to evolve.
“I just think it was time for the character to evolve,” she said. “As much as I loved having pink hair and a blue tongue, you need to grow up at some point. So I think it was just time for Liv to grow up. So I had a nine-month hiatus of self-discovery and hair dye. I’m just trying to find my footing and my place as a woman in the world and in this business. And it’s different for me, and you guys are seeing the growth live on TV. What it is now may not be how it is in a couple months. But I’m just trying to grow, and I’m not fully there yet.”
Morgan recently returned to WWE TV for an angle with Lana, which didn’t last too long. She was asked about her reaction when she first learned that the Lana angle was how she would be reintroduced on WWE TV.
“I was like, ‘It’s crazy enough, I’ll do it.’ I was excited. I was excited, there’s nothing like that that’s ever been done,” Liv said. “In the company before, Lana and Lashley, they were taking up a very large portion of the screen time on Raw. So, for me, being off of TV for nine months to, now you’re in the main-event picture, in the main-event spotlight, I was like, ‘Okay, cool. I’m ready for it. Thank you for the opportunity.’”Click Here: parramatta eels shirt

Sheamus on the formation of the league of nations
Sheamus was recently interviewed by Sportskeeda. During the interview, he spoke about his time in the ‘League of Nations’ faction & Why Was it Formed
Here is what Sheamus said:
“Oh, man. We had the craic, we made the most of it, the League of Nations, but ultimately the whole purpose of that group was to get Roman off and running. It was to create a vulnerability for Roman, an obstacle to overcome. I’d love to sit here and say you had four awesome, individual guys who were supposed to take over WWE as a faction but it was never that way. We lost our first match against Roman in a four-on-one handicap match.
“That was the start of something and we knew right away, from there, that we weren’t built to do this thing, we were just built for Roman.”
Sheamus continued:
“That’s what the chairman wanted to do, that was his vision. ‘We need to get Roman going, we need to create some obstacles for him.’ He put the four of us together and, when he beat me for that WWE Title, it was kind of a one-on-one situation – but he was over.
The crowd were really behind him. They really hated me and loved him, so it was kind of like ‘job done’ in that situation, and sometimes you get to be in those situations, that’s your job. That’s what they want.”Click Here: South Sydney Rabbitohs jersey
Becky Lynch Says Her WrestleMania Match is on Night 1
During an Instagram interview with Ariel Helwani, Becky Lynch stated that she believes her match will be on night one of WrestleMania 36. Lynch is slated to defend her Raw Women’s Championship against Shayna Baszler.
Other highlights from the interview (via Fightful)
On any health concerns during the pandemic: “I didn’t have any concerns for myself. We really limited the amount of people that were there. The only thing I’m very conscientious of is now that we’re back and when we come back, we isolate ourselves for a couple of weeks and make sure we don’t have any symptoms before we go into the world again.”
On precautions at the Performance Center: “They’re staggering everything. If you don’t have a reason to be there, then get the hell out of there. If you have a match or segment then you’re there with a minimal amount of crew. When you come in, your temperature is taken, a questionnaire is filled out, and the doctors are there to meet you when you walk into the build.”Click Here: cheap dragons jersey

WWE resuming television tapings at the Performance Center on Friday
Sean Sapp is reporting that WWE will resume television tapings this coming Friday and will film continuously for a week. The first order of business will be to get tapings done for Smackdown which would air later in the day on FOX.
WWE plans to tape six episodes combined of Raw and Smackdown during the week while also doing multiple episodes of NXT at the nearby Full Sail University in Winter Park. With major sports events clearly not returning in front of an audience over the next couple of months, taping empty arena shows remains the only option to keep business going. Tomorrow’s NXT, featuring Gargano vs Ciampa and the women’s ladder match, was already filmed.
Florida remains under lockdown and WWE is not deemed as an essential business but the company has obviously obtained some kind of permission to go ahead with tapings over the next week.Click Here: north queensland cowboys shirt
Belgian starlet opens transfer door to Man United, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid
THEO BONGONDA IS open to leaving Celta Vigo, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Atletico Madrid his favoured destinations.
The 21-year-old has caught the eye since linking up with Celta in 2015.
A former Belgium U21 international, he believes that he is ready to take a step up in class and would welcome the opportunity to join fellow countrymen in the Premier League or at a La Liga rival.
Bongonda told reporters: “I could comfortably stay another two or three years with Vigo, but it is not my ambition to spend the rest of my career with them.
“Every footballer wants to play at the highest possible level. If I could choose my next club I’d say Sevilla — I’ve always felt attracted to them although I don’t know why.
“They would be a terrific next step in my career. They are always in the top five in La Liga, always in Europe, and Seville is an attractive city.
“Three years ago I was still sat on the sub’s bench for Zulte Waregem’s game against Beveren. Since then I have played against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.”
Bongonda is under contract until 2019, but a tempting offer could lure Celta into a sale.
