Mark Henry commented on WWE going to Saudi Arabia for Night of Champions

Mark Henry believes that the WWE roster and members of the company will be safe in Saudi Arabia.

Speaking with Alfred Konuwa in an interview, the former World Heavyweight Champion recalled his own experience in the country, stating that he had a great time in Saudi Arabia. Henry said:

“I’m not worried about anybody. If the WWE goes over there, the full power of the king and his son are going to protect them and keep them safe. Nothing [is] going to happen. Every time I went to Saudi Arabia, I felt more at home and welcome than I do a lot of places in America. People say 'Welcome home, brother!' Like there’s so many people over there that are brown people that look like you and I."

Despite the tension in the Middle East, the premium live event will take place as planned. The night before the show in Saudi Arabia, WWE will also host this week's episode of SmackDown from the country.
