As previously reported, a small group of top stars and officials – believed to be about 20 people in total – attempted to take a secondary charter flight out of Saudi Arabia in order to make it back in time for Friday Night Smackdown. However, that flight also ended up having travel issues and it is believed that the group ended up in Ireland.
