Have you never seen people complain about even the most minor of inconveniences on social media? They apparently got on the plane & couldn't get back off or they would have had to get through customs again, so they stayed on for hours before it was decided they couldn't fly. There were 100+ people stuck on the other side of the world not knowing when stuff would get sorted so they could get home.
The roster was working on Monday & had to fly out for the show on Thursday & in the case of some had to fly straight back into working SmackDown on Friday. Then they had to deal with a delay that kept them there for an extra day. Their also about to start a UK tour so they lost a day or 2 at home before they go right back out on that tour.
Don't have a clue about the money stuff, also don't know if they were due that payment now or later after they do the 2 shows a year that they signed on to do
Why would they "kidnap" 100+ people & just let them go 24 hours later? Why would they allow the 20 or whatever that left go? What would that accomplish? Why would the airline release a statement taking the blame? Why would they cut the feed of the show in KSA only for it to resume an hour later if Vince was pissed?
