World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is back again in Singapore for the only show in Southeast Asia for the year 2017.
WWE Live Singapore features some of the biggest stars on their current roster, and fans can expect explosive in-ring action akin to the United States shows.
The Singapore show will be happening tonight, June 28, at the Sports Hub.
The wrestlers are seemingly enjoying their time in Singapore, and fans have given them a warm welcome as well.

In case you're one of those WWE fans who are more familiar with the older stars, you'd recognise one wrestler out of the lot: Chris Jericho.
He has been around since 1999 and is one of the most iconic wrestling figures.
He seems to be enjoying his time in Singapore the most too.
Filming and uploading his thoughts about Singapore on video-hosting site Viktre, he remarked that the sculpture he saw at the South Arrival Immigration hall at Changi Airport as "some kind of Singaporean thing".
Yeah there's some..really big statues over here which I'm going to go check it out. but it's cool, back in Singapore 24 hours later. What a crazy journey that was. Look at that. That's pretty cool huh? Two giant people, covered with birds and a baby on the shoulder. I don't know what exactly that means but, I'm sure some kind of Singaporean thing.
Funnily enough, he's technically right, as the 900kg sculpture, named "Going Home", was meant to be a physical metaphor for the importance of family.

A couple of hours later, at what seems like the hotel he is staying at, he uploaded another video sharing his thoughts about Singapore, praising our architecture and for being a beautiful city.

Alright, here in Singapore, look at all the beautiful buildings behind us, it's just crazy man. It's like this unbelievable architecture. Um. Such a pretty city, such a pretty country, not so pretty hair. [laughs] it's what happens when you're, uh, you know what happens? Hair? When it's humid out? And it's too long? But yeah look at that. What a great area. Kind of a cool little, uh, pool area up here, have a workout, now get ready for the big uh, big show tonight, here in Singapore. But yeah I really like that I like that uh, these areas, so to give you a little taste of what Singapore is like. See you soon.
Oh, he also praised Singapore on his Instagram as well.
Steady.

Irrefutable proof why yellow is the new “in” colour right now in Singapore
