WWE is slated to make history with its A-show in SmackDown next year as the company continues to branch out in different markets across the world. With 2024 inching closer, more history will be made.
WWE hosted Backlash in Puerto Rico before taking Money in the Bank to Europe earlier this year. They also held two shows in Saudi Arabia, something they do annually. Next year’s Elimination Chamber will be in February from Optus Stadium in Perth, Western Australia, and WWE Bash in Berlin on August 31, 2024, at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Berlin, Germany.
They will also hold Backlash on May 4, 2024, in Lyon-Decines from LDLC Arena. The venue has a concert capacity of 16,000.
