What BBN said about it

1. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLet's start with the news. Cageside Seats reports WWE still plans to hold Crown Jewel in Riyadh on November seventh.

2. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThis comes as the U. S. Embassy urges Americans to use extreme caution at any airport in Saudi Arabia. Your thoughts?

3. IV

   Ignatius VanderslootBetween you and the ring rope, I think caution is a great look on everybody. I support caution loudly.

4. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFightful Select says a number of staff and talent are unhappy about the plan. I'd call that early feedback on a travel itinerary.

5. IV

   Ignatius VanderslootUnhappy is a strong word. I'd say we're enthusiastic about home.

6. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorRiyadh's King Khalid airport partly reopened October twenty-fifth, with domestic flights and some international ones on national carriers. Very welcoming.

7. IV

   Ignatius VanderslootSome international ones. I checked my passport, and it's from a country with no national carrier. Tulsa.

8. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTell us about the movie.

9. IV

   Ignatius VanderslootIt's called Steel Lunchbox. I play a retired bomb-disposal chef. Between you and the ring rope, I do my own stunts, mostly walking.

10. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe press office in me loves it. Now, are you flying to Riyadh on November seventh, yes or no?

11. IV

    Ignatius VanderslootI'd love to answer that. Look at this belt. Real foam, real gold. Foam.

12. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAri Emanuel says a whole team is monitoring it daily, with backup options. So, yes or no?

13. IV

    Ignatius VanderslootNo. I told them in September. Between you and the ring rope, I told them very loudly, in writing, twice.

14. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSeptember. Before the advisory.

15. IV

    Ignatius VanderslootI'm a visionary about airports. I saw the cancellation coming. It's also my finishing move.

16. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLightning round. Favorite finishing move?

17. IV

    Ignatius VanderslootThe cancellation.

18. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAisle or window?

19. IV

    Ignatius VanderslootCouch.

20. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLast question, and that's a solid four out of five turnbuckles for staying out of a flight risk. Where can people see you?

21. IV

    Ignatius VanderslootSteel Lunchbox, in theaters soon. The belt's going to Riyadh in first class, and I'm in the middle seat in Tulsa.
