WWE Night of Champions 2025 preview with early UK start time on Netflix

WWE has arrived in Saudi Arabia for Night of Champions 2025.

The global sports entertainment juggernaut is airing another premium live event from the Middle East this weekend, with a stacked card including the finals of the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments.

Some fans had voiced concerns amid fallout from the US strikes on Iran, with many calling for the event to be cancelled or moved.

However, the likes of CM Punk have already been seen arriving in Riyadh, and after tonight’s episode of SmackDown it’ll be time for the latest PLE in WWE’s longstanding deal with Saudi Arabia.

The arrangement is a massive money spinner for WWE, and the wrestling promotion has already confirmed its return in January 2026 when the Royal Rumble moves outside North America for the very first time.

Now, though, it’s time for Night of Champions with just two blockbuster title matches – here’s what you need to know.

WWE Night of Champions airs tomorrow (Saturday, June 28), at a much much earlier start time of 6pm for UK fans.

Fans used to have to wait until the regular middle-of-the-night broadcast for international events, but thankfully the days of watching on delay are done.
