WWE willing to pay Cristiano Ronaldo $40–50m to appear at Crown Jewel: Rumors

Ronaldo is the most followed star on social media
Rumours suggest that WWE are willing to pay Cristiano Ronaldo a significant sum of money in exchange for his appearance at Crown Jewel 2023.
Devoted fans on social media belong to the football legend Cristiano Ronaldo. His presence consequently constantly attracts interest and draws visitors from all around the world. Recent rumours claim that the WWE is considering inviting the legendary Portuguese wrestler to their yearly Crown Jewel premium live show in Saudi Arabia.
It is made feasible by Ronaldo's participation with Al-Nassr FC in the Saudi Pro League. WWE apparently sought to bring him for Night Of Champions earlier this year.
There have been rumours of a prospective transaction with Crown Jewel not far away. Rumour has it that WWE would pay Cristiano Ronaldo $40–50 million so he may take part in the upcoming event.
According to rumours, WWE intends to make every effort to get the five-time Champions League champion to attend the event.
Additionally, this could be a request from KSA officials, who could aid in attracting more attention to their offering. Since there are no verified sources to back up the "proposed" agreement between WWE and Cristiano Ronaldo, this is now purely speculative.
Furthermore, it appears quite improbable that the legendary Portuguese figure will appear at Crown Jewel. On November 4, Al-Nassr, Ronaldo's football team, will take on Al-Khaleej. Of course, the great WWE event will also be broadcast on television that day. It will be fascinating to observe if Cristiano Ronaldo makes a show of being there.
