WWE Super ShowDown is just a handful of hours away, and the WWE Universe is abuzz.

The third show in the company's decade long-deal with Saudi Arabia, WWE are once again pulling out the big guns with some huge matches in store.

As well as the usual array of title matches, there is a first-ever encounter between two legends, a rekindling of an old feud between mentor and protege, and a colossal 50-man Battle Royal.

Tonight's show is going to be huge, but fans should still expect some twists and surprises along the way.

Here are five things you need to know before tonight's WWE Super ShowDown pay per view.

#5: Who else will show?

Kurt Angle appeared at the Greatest Royal Rumble and at Crown Jewel. Will he show tonight?

We know that WWE's decade-long deal with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is netting the wrestling promotion serious money, so of course, they want to put on a huge show for the nation.

Their first show, the Greatest Royal Rumble saw the appearance of Hall of Famers like Mark Henry and Kurt Angle, whilst the Crown Jewel event last November saw the return of Huk Hogan, the Hulkster's first live appearance since being fired in 2015.

Even tonight, we have some huge stars announced, such as recent Hall of Fame inductee Triple H, 2018 Hall of Famer Goldberg, and sure-fire future Hall of Famer The Undertaker.

Some huge names have already been announced, but the WWE could surprise us all by having some extra names appear out of nowhere.

While we don't know which legends will appear, if any, let's just say that those Olympic Gold Medals would shine even brighter under the Arabian Sun.

#4: Is tonight the night to ShowOff?

Ziggler has vowed to become WWE Champion tonight in Jeddah.

In the latest WWE NEWS, Dolph Ziggler has only recently returned to WWE, but the ShowOff has done plenty since his comeback.

Attacking Kofi Kingston, the former World Heavyweight Champion has his eyes set on the Ghanaian Superstar's WWE title, and it seems there is no depth he won't stoop to in order to become champion.

Dolph has even attacked Kingston's New Day comrades, viciously assaulting Xavier Woods on RAW, in a clear message to the champ.

For years, fans have supported Dolph, but it seems there has been a glass ceiling over the ShowOff's career, as whenever he did rise to the top, he was never THE guy.

Ziggler could change all of that and finally show the world just how good he really is tonight, and if Kingston isn't careful, that's exactly what Dolph will do.

#3: Goldberg. Undertaker. First time ever

Goldberg and The Undertaker are both legends of WWE and will collide tonight in Jeddah.
Goldberg and The Undertaker are both legends of WWE and will collide tonight in Jeddah.

Goldberg. The unstoppable force of WCW. A man who captured the WCW World Heavyweight Championship whilst maintaining his undefeated streak.

The Undertaker. A legend of wrestling. Debuting at the 1990 Survivor Series, the Demon of Death Valley has been digging holes and claiming souls for nearly 30 years, forming an iconic career.

Tonight, these two titans will face off, both men looking to prove who deserves to be called the greatest of all time.

The crowd, and those working in WWE, are split, as it's hard to root against either of these men.

A match of gigantic proportions, only one Superstar can claim victory? Will The Undertaker fall victim to the Jackhammer, or is it Goldberg's time, after an incredible career and Hall of Fame induction, to Rest. In Peace...

#2: Battle Royal glory

Strowman is hoping for similar success after winning this year's Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

There have been big Battle Royals in the WWE's history, but never one quite this hefty.

Tonight, 50 men will look to make a name for themselves as they climb between the ropes and battle it out until there is one left.

Will it be a monster among men like Braun Strowman, who dominated the last time the company came to Jeddah in April 2018, winning the 50-man Greatest Royal Rumble?

Or perhaps it will be someone smaller with more agility and cunning, maybe a cruiserweight looking for their big break on the main roster.

Whoever wins the historic match tonight, expect something big for them afterward. At the very least a trophy, as they instantly make a name for themselves on the main roster as a championship contender.

#1: Three Men. One Night. One Universal Champion

Rollins is scheduled to defend against Corbin, but an F5 scale Tornado could change all that.

Seth Rollins captured the WWE Universal title at WrestleMania, but his reign has never been in greater jeopardy than it is right now.

Tonight, the Architect will defend the gold against Baron Corbin, who looks to prove why he has been such a prominent feature on RAW in recent years, by taking the gold off of Rollins.

But for the Beastslayer, his mind may be pre-occupied by Brock Lesnar, who is yet to cash in his Men's Money in the Bank contract.

After not cashing in during RAW, Lesnar still has his golden ticket to the main event scene and could win the title for the third time tonight in Jeddah.

Between Corbin and the Beast, it seems Rollins' days as Universal Champion may be over tonight.
