TKO reaffirms support from Saudi Arabia

May 8, 2026 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

During Wednesday’s earnings report for the first quarter of 2026, an analyst asked about if the company was concerned with the potential of pullback after the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Tour received word that it would no longer receive funding.

However, TKO President Mark Shapiro confirmed that its partnership with Saudi Arabia remains strong. Shapiro noted that the WWE will continue to hold events in the Kingdom including a recently announced event on June 27th.

The current agreement between TKO and the Saudi Arabian Public Interest Fund runs through 2027.
