WWE has never brought either event outside of North America.
WWE is in the back half of its decade-long contract with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Beginning in 2018, WWE inked a deal to bring two premium live events to Saudi Arabia every year, beginning with WWE Greatest Royal Rumble that spring. While WWE would create shows specifically for the Middle East location, namely WWE Crown Jewel and WWE Super ShowDown, it also brought established B-tier events like WWE Night of Champions and WWE Elimination Chamber overseas.
In quotes shared by ESPN's Mike Coppinger, Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority Chairman Turki Alalshikh noted that an"enhancement" to WWE's current contract with Saudi Arabia will be announced later this month. While specifics within the updated agreement are not finalized, Alalshikh is said to be eyeing either a future WWE Royal Rumble or WWE WrestleMania to take place in Saudi.
WWE did hold a Royal Rumble-inspired event in Saudi Arabia in 2018 in the form of WWE Greatest Royal Rumble, a traditional premium live event centered around the largest Royal Rumble Match ever, placing 50 superstars in the battle royal. Unlike the traditional Royal Rumble Match, a WWE WrestleMania title shot was not on the line, as winner Braun Strowman simply received a commemorative championship belt.
