After $21.4 Billion TKO Merger, Al Nassr’s Cristiano Ronaldo Rumored to Appear at WWE Crown Jewel

WWE doesn’t lag behind when it comes to surprises. Reports suggest that Vince McMahon‘s previously-owned company might again be planning something out of the box. Word is in the air that the global soccer sensation Cristiano Ronaldo is being considered to appear at a WWE show.

The reason for the same could be as simple as promoting the night. However, there’s more to the story.

How could WWE be pulling off this publicity stunt?

As far as fans know, WWE has no direct connections with the world of soccer, and, more specifically, Ronaldo. But those who are updated with the latest news about the sport and the Portuguese athlete are aware that Ronaldo signed with a Saudi Arabian pro-soccer league. The contract for joining Al-Nassr FC offered the athlete €173 million a year. Multiple reports suggested that more than half of the salary pertained to his image rights and commercial deals rather than actually playing.

So, new reports and rumors suggest that WWE is looking forward to bagging Cristiano Ronaldo for an appearance. The reason for his appearance would sit right at WWE Crown Jewel which is reportedly happening in Saudi Arabia. So, Ronaldo’s commercial and image connections to Al Nassr and the city of Riyadh could end up making him appear in the crowd for the Stamford-based company’s event in Saudi Arabia.

Reports spoke of multiple appearances as a possibility, too. Especially after WWE merged with the UFC to become a $21.4 billion worth company called TKO Group Holdings, this seems like a possible future.

Do you believe Ronaldo’s WWE appearance can benefit him as well?
