History was made on October 31st at the Crown Jewel PPV, held in Saudi Arabia
Due to the abysmal history that the country has regarding women's rights, all WWE female wrestlers had previously been banned from participating in WWE events held there. However, during the Crown Jewel media press conference on October 30, it was announced that a match between Natalya and Lacey Evans had been approved, marking the first-ever women's match in Saudi Arabia
In respecting the country's culture, both women wore no make-up, had their hair pulled back in poni-tails and wore full body outfits instead of their normal ring attire
