About Night of Champions
WWE Night of Champions 2023 is a Premium Live Event scheduled to be held on the 27th of May, 2023, a Saturday. It will occur live from the Super Dome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
It is the 10th edition of Night of Champions and is the ninth event to be held in Saudi Arabia under the Saudi Vision 2030. The event scheduled to held in KSA on the above date was first announced as King and Queen of the Ring. The decision would have brought back the tournament-dedicated PPV. WWE, instead, decided to bring back Night of Champions after the event was last held in 2015.
It will be the second PPV to take place in the May of 2023 after Backlash. A notable thing about the month is that none of these events will take place in the USA as the Night of Champions will be held in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia while WWE Backlash will be held in Puerto Rico.
