Dana White makes a big announcement concerning WWE

UFC President Dana White has made a major announcement during the UFC St. Louis post-fight press conference tonight. As per White, fans will see WWE Premium Live Events on Sundays in the future.

For a while now, WWE has been having its PLEs on Saturdays. This was a move that was universally lauded by fans. The company has been doing incredibly well under the Triple H regime.

Dana White answered media questions during tonight's UFC St. Louis post-fight press conference. The UFC President said the following at one point during the conference:

“You’re gonna see Friday, Power Slap. Saturday, UFC. And Sunday, WWE. You’ll start seeing that stuff too.”

Back in 2022, WWE began moving its Premium Live Events from Sunday to Saturday. Soon after, Fightful Select reported that the backstage reaction to the huge move was positive.

WWE has also been focusing on doing international events for quite some time now. The promotion has been holding major PLEs in Saudi Arabia for years on end at this point.

Earlier this year, it toured Australia for the Elimination Chamber: Perth event. Mere days ago, WWE presented Backlash in France. The international PLEs have helped the promotion greatly in getting exposure in untapped regions.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
