More than 175 Superstars, production crew and employees boarded a 747 charter flight back to the United States on Thursday. After the door closed, due to several aircraft problems including mechanical issues, all passengers sat on the tarmac for more than six hours.

“Man, (you) see and do a lot of wild things with WWE. This travel day is no exception," SmackDown Superstar Kofi Kingston said Friday. "Tried our best to get to Buffalo tonight, unfortunately got out of our control but the show must go on!”

The remainder of WWE’s Superstars, staff and crew departed on a charter set to depart Saudi Arabia on Friday.

The situation gave way to a shocking edition of SmackDown, with NXT Superstars, such as NXT Champion Adam Cole, NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler, Tommaso Ciampa, Keith Lee, Matt Riddle and others invading and making their presence felt as Triple H declared war.

The following statement was issued by Atlas Air, the operator of the charter flight.

"A chartered passenger flight operated by Atlas Air is currently delayed in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia due to a mechanical issue. The flight was scheduled to depart at 3:00 AM AST on Nov. 1. Our top priority is always to ensure our passengers arrive safely and on time at their destination. The aircraft is being repaired and will be inspected and certified before returning to service to transport our passengers to their final destination. We regret that operational disruptions delayed the flight and apologize to our passengers who were inconvenienced."
