With the culmination of WrestleMania 35, WWE is on it's way to a fresh new start again. We recently witnessed the Superstar Shake-up on RAW and SmackDown, leading to a lot of talents changing brands. The next scheduled PPV is the annual Money in the Bank PPV that will crown a new Mr. and Miss Money in the Bank 2019.

But after that, WWE has a huge glorified live-event cum PPV scheduled. Last year we witnessed WWE capturing a huge unexplored market when they signed a 10 year deal with the kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is said to be worth billions of dollars. As part of the deal, WWE had two huge shows, "The Greatest Royal Rumble" and "Crown Jewel", in the Middle East last year.

This year, WWE is again scheduled to fly to Saudi Arabia on June 7 for a yet to be named PPV. With a little more than a month to go, expect to hear an announcement for the same from the company anytime. With that in mind, WWE would have already decided on the matches to be on the show, so can we expect to see the build for those soon?

In this article, let's take a look at the 5 interesting matches WWE could be planning for the upcoming Saudi Arabia PPV.

Do let us know your opinions on what matches should be on the card.


#5 Seth Rollins vs Drew McIntyre for the Universal Championship

Seth Rollins won the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35 by famously slaying the Beast, Brock Lesnar. With him as the champion and Lesnar potentially gone, who could be the one to step up and challenge the BeastSlayer for his Universal Championship? None other than, the Scottish Psychopath, Drew McIntyre.

McIntyre pinned Rollins a few weeks before WrestleMania in the main event of RAW, albeit some distraction from Brock. With him continuously feuding with The Shield, Seth may very well be his next target. WWE would be looking to have a solid match-up for the Universal Title at the Saudi PPV, and these two could just be what they need.
