WWE is getting paid a handsome amount of money to bring the Backlash premium live event to Puerto Rico, as well as Smackdown.

In recent years, WWE has made an effort to bring more of their premium live events and television shows to international arenas and stadiums across the globe. This trend started when the company began their partnership with Saudi Arabia in 2018, a place where they now host two PLEs every year.

According to sources familiar with the situation, WWE is being paid a handsome fee of $1.5 million dollars to bring the Backlash PLE to San Juan, Puerto Rico in May. The fee is being paid out by the Puerto Rico Convention Center District Authority (PRCDA) and the Puerto Rico Tourism Company. Backlash will be the first PLE/PPV that has been held in the country since New Year’s Revolution back in 2005.

WWE is also speaking to various locations domestically and around the world about the economic impact (hotels, bars, restaurants) and spotlight (broadcast and social promotion in the area) that WWE brings to a city and its venue.

He doesnt suck but he doesnt have a "star" personality. Gargano going back to NXT with Waller to me isntna cool moment or does him justice. It just proves they still got nothing for him on the big stages.
