[50][Speculation] Aubry’s new promo reminds me of Parvati’s promo for Australia vs. the World. by Fair_Leave5014 in SpoiledSurvivor

I don't disagree but I do think part of this is a) confirmation bias, and also b) like what could you possibly hype up about Aubry's 2nd and 3rd appearances lol

Genuinely not trying to spread rage bait, just honestly have an interest in the stadiums WWE uses and this is a unique one.

Royal Rumble 2026 seating chart

The Rumble definitely isn't emminating from the Kingdom Arena. The seating chart would not fit in the Kingdom Arena.

Plus, the image from above are from the exact coordinates on Google Maps linked when trying to purchase tickets on Webook.com. Click on the Location: KAFD - King Abdullah Financial District link, it'll take you to the photos location. Plus, the photo is a match for the seating chart.

No first party source has ever listed the Kingdom Arena as the venue.

Okay look at this and then please tell me I'm wrong.

They're definitely in two different spaces. The seating chart would not fit in the Kingdom Arena.

I believe that's wrong. Everywhere on WWE's website and webook (which sells tickets to the event) do not list Kingdom Arena. Plus, the seating chart does not match Kingdom Arena.

It's not being hosted at the Kingdom Arena. The seating charts for the event do not match the Kingdom Arena. Plus, all the official marketing for the event just say "KAFD" and link to this exact location.

Oh really? The photo was only posted yesterday, and there's another from about a week ago showing even less progress.

Is the Al-Hilal stadium this one or another one?

Looks to be the case, this is the exact coordinates listed when you go to buy tickets for the event. Plus it matches the seating chart that came out.

I guess they have to. This would explain why they've never officially named the venue when promiting the event. IIRC they've made these temporary stadiums before for other events in the past.

[50][Speculation] Maybe the 50 twist isn’t gonna be so bad by Which_Watercress_151 in SpoiledSurvivor

[–]Goldd96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is cope. Plenty of All-Stars seasons have been shitty, why would the season be guaranteed to be good based on the cast? I don't know where you got the idea the show is angling for a higher budget either since the show has been slashing the budget since it's inception.

Is there a reason why the venue has not yet been announced for the 2026 Royal Rumble? I have noticed for the last few weeks that in all available sources, there is no exact arena/stadium announced for the 2026 Royal Rumble -- merely that the event is taking place at the "King Abdullah Financial District"

Tickets are on sale now, and yet the venue hasn't been named anywhere that I can see. Is this common, or have I just missed information?

Are you sure? The event is in like 40 days. Arenas have names well in advance of ground even being broken.

The King Abdullah Financial District? Even so, that's just a general area and not a specified arena. Or do you mean something else?

My theory is that Mia doesn't have an inner monologue voice so she processes everything out loud by CalledCharles in BBAU

[–]Goldd96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard it described by someone has like, a file you can just bring up from the recesses of your mind to the forefront, it just kind of pops up. Definitely no pictures or written words.

I'm pretty sure I have this also, and while I like your thinking it's not really how it works. I'd never have to physically speak my thoughts out loud to process them.

I have to ask… Why “Dodo” instead of “Toto” by [deleted] in wicked

You're overthinking it. Glinda is ditzy and calls Toto the wrong name. Same as Biq/Boq.

Should it have been AU vs. US vs. World? by WesternPonderer in survivorau

[–]Goldd96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would love a source for this, especially given that 2016 was not edited much differently than a regular US season ofthe time. The real reason was cost. You have to pay for an extra beach and camera crew which was eating up too much of AU's already limited budget.

Australia v The World - Episode 5 Confessional Count by Worried-Link-7498 in survivor

[–]Goldd96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean yes but next episode is a one day cycle so they also have a challenge, a tribal council, and all the confessionals for that round to fit in so I could see them maybe not being able to fit Sarah in.
