Not to forget the recent PLE, last month’s WWE Elimination Chamber, which was held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, was a total blast. So the pro wrestling promotion can expect theses events to be blockbuster as well.
Fans react to WWE going outside the United States of America
WWE is really pushing to give their global fans their money’s worth. And fans are also loving this decision made by the company. Fans from all around the world have left positive comments and remarks on the company’s decision to reward their international fans.
Fans were already excited to hear the news of the Money in the Bank PLE taking place in London this year. But this news has not only doubled the excitement but tripled it.
Here are some of the top comments from the fans.
Which is great and long overdue. WWE is a world wide popular company and needs to show love to its fans but giving them important shows. I’ve been to plenty events and have met people from all over the world that fly to these shows. Love seeing this.

WWE is finally living up to the name WORLD Wrestling Entertainment, After WrestleMania their PLEs are outside of the US/Canada
– Backlash in Puerto Rico (6 May)
– King and Queen of the Ring in Saudi (27 May)
– Money in the Bank in London (1 July)
– more Saudi shows— Jordan Talks Wrestling (@JWrestling94) March 8, 2023
The fact that the first two WWE PLEs after WrestleMania are outside the US is insane. And there’s also MITB in London on July

The WWE Universe is praising Triple H for making this happen.
Huge deal for WWE and its PLEs. Mad respect for @sanbenito, as he’s a fan at heart.
WWE has a lot of buzz surrounding it and its international fan base as they are salivating for PLEs, and @TripleH is giving to them. WWE fans who live outside the US, deserve it. https://t.co/MbRvqJq8or

Crowds for shows in America are so hit and miss. I've yet to see a bad international crowd for wwe. Makes sense to put that kind of energy on tv as it makes the product FEEL better. Great call by HHH

Fans want more of this to happen in the future.
Glad to see WWE rewarding fans that are outside of continental us, wouldn’t mind more if this

It's good they are doing more PLE outside of the continental US. Hopefully they look at doing one in Japan, Brazil, Seoul and an actual one in India.

Build that global brand! 👍

The fans believe that WWE expanding globally is a really good idea.
This is a great idea. Interest usually wanes a little after the Raw after WrestleMania. Having three events outside of the mainland USA ensures three great crowds before they hit the mainland for the next "Big Four" show.

Probably a good idea. It’s something sort of unique to them pro-wrestling wise at least. If their gonna do 14 or so PLEs a year, doing more outside the States and making them feel like bigger deals imo.
