During a recent interview with TV Insider, former
RAW and
SmackDown Women's Champion Alexa Bliss talked more about her experience while travelling to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia for
Super ShowDown. WWE was hoping to have her square off with Natalya but the country's sports authority said no and that was the end of that.
For what it's worth, though, Bliss seemingly had a positive experience while touring the country alongside her fellow WWE Superstars.
"I didn’t really know what to expect in Saudi Arabia," Bliss admitted. "I knew it wasn’t going to be like Abu Dhabi. It’s very interesting to see how everything is over there. We had fun. When Nattie and I got to interact with kids in the hospital, they knew who we were. They know the product. The show itself was awesome. It was actually a really good experience."
“Every woman Natalya and I spoke to were super welcoming and asking us how we liked Jeddah. They said whatever they could do to make our stay better to let them know. Women there were just so excited to meet us. We had so many come up to us thanking us for coming and how they really hope to see a match. I think it’s definitely within reach."
We'll have to wait and see whether that's the case but it does feel like WWE is trying its best to make it happen. Stay tuned for more.
