Football icon and Al-Nassr forward Cristiano Ronaldo will make a guest appearance at WWE’s upcoming premium live event, Crown Jewel, on November 4 alongside WWE legend John Cena. The event will take place at the Mohammed Abdu Arena in Riyadh, marking the second time the venue will host the annual Crown Jewel event.

According to reports from AS, WWE’s recent merger with the UFC under Endeavor is the reason behind the incredible move to bring the Portuguese legend to a WWE show. Endeavor has propounded the idea to boost sales and also create more ‘hype’ around the spectacular event. Ronaldo will earn a hefty sum for a ‘superstar guest appearance.’

Cristiano Ronaldo’s appearance will not be the first time a football player was part of WWE programming. Former Bundesliga goalkeeper Tim Wiese made an appearance in the ring alongside WWE superstars Sheamus and Cesaro. It happened at a WWE event hosted in Munich, Germany.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s former teammate, Wayne Rooney, also played a part in the WWE storyline when WWE commentator Wade Barrett insulted the player, who was in the front row. It led to Rooney slapping Barrett across the face, which was met with thunderous cheers from the crowd.

Cristiano Ronaldo has already shown himself to be a huge fan of combat sports and was met with the loudest cheers when the camera was panned on him at Tyson Fury’s fight against Francis Ngannou. WWE will expect the same reception if the player makes an appearance at their upcoming grand event in Saudi Arabia.

Moreover, the spectacular event will see the appearance of WWE superstar John Cena in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
