Perth's CBD is buzzing with excitement as the WWE makes its highly anticipated return to RAC Arena tonight, bringing with it a surge in road and foot traffic. The three-day event, which will be streamed globally, features some of the biggest names in wrestling, including Hollywood megastar John Cena. The main event, Crown Jewel, takes place on Saturday, with Cena potentially making an appearance to promote the show. The WWE's popularity is evident in the long lines of dedicated fans queuing for merchandise, a testament to its enduring appeal in Perth. The event's impact on traffic is significant, with Main Roads WA urging the public to be vigilant and allow extra time, especially on Wellington and Milligan streets, due to the anticipated congestion from peak-hour in the mid-afternoon until the event concludes between two and three hours after it starts. The WWE's presence in Perth is a major draw, with the three epic events taking place on Friday, Saturday, and Monday, and all three shows will be broadcast on Netflix, making it accessible to a global audience. However, the excitement has also led to unexpected incidents, such as a six-car crash on the freeway after a family of ducks caused a commotion, highlighting the unpredictable nature of large-scale events.
