Sixteen Stageco containers were despatched to the event venue, the Mohammed Abdu Arena, where 17 supervisors led by Stefaan Vandenbosch and Thomas Boulogne spent a full week constructing the stage’s central roof and entry deck, and a further three days on the tear down. Tom Bilsen managed the project for Stageco.
Ten matches were contested at the event, including one during the Kickoff pre-show. In the main event, Roman Reigns defeated Brock Lesnar to retain the WWE Universal Championship.
