“The Game” Triple H is in Saudi Arabia as he dictates the direction for what should be a huge June for WWE. Ahead of the two-night event in Jeddah, he sent an important message.

WWE took the first of two annual trips to Saudi Arabia, with the first stop this year being the King and Queen of the Ring tournament. While the event was scheduled for last year, a change of plans saw it being changed to “Night of Champions.” This year, WWE finally played into the King and Queen of the Ring name and the men’s and women’s tournament will culminate in Jeddah with both finals taking place on the premium live event.

As the two-night event in Jeddah kicked off with SmackDown, Triple H sent a message stating that things were getting loud already:

Triple H also made another massive announcement ahead of the King and Queen of the Ring tournament finals – that the winners of the respective tournaments would get a world championship opportunity at WWE SummerSlam.

This undoubtedly raises the stakes of the entire tournament – with world title shots having been used in the past for King of the Ring winners as well.

Although The Game said that the Jeddah crowd is loud, Lyon seemed to raise the bar earlier this month.
