5 Largest-Attended Non-WrestleMania Events In WWE History

#4.) Greatest Royal Rumble 2018 – 60,000 people

WWE seemed to have stricken a goldmine of a deal with Saudi Arabia. As a result, they went to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia to the King Abdullah International Stadium. The big attraction of the show was a 50-man Royal Rumble match. Fans wondered how they were going to fit in so many superstars, and they even called names such as Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio, The Great Khali and even Hornswoggle to return for one-offs.

The card itself was quite stacked, with John Cena vs Triple H being the opener. It was made very clear that this event was a major money deal for WWE, as they would announce their return to the country later that year. The event turned out to be a huge success, but what was particularly notable was the fact that the seating was different. The Saudi Royal Family occupied ringside, while the rest of the floor space was completely empty. The fans were separated and made to sit much further away.
