This is the second time WWE will return to Saudi Arabia for their Queen of the Ring tournament. The inaugural Queen’s Crown tournament took place as part of the Crown Jewel PLE in Saudi Arabia on October 21, 2021, and was won by Zelina Vega.

WWE is reportedly planning to revive the Backlash premium live event in May as well. The first-ever Backlash PPV took place in 1999. The event was renamed to WrestleMania Backlash in 2021. However, WWE is said to be dropping the WrestleMania branding from Mania’s aftermath this year.
