What if WWE doesn’t put on Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia?

4. The hunt for a domestic venue

Crown Jewel has been built significantly enough that it has to happen somewhere.

Between the DX vs. The Brothers of Destruction legends match; the blockbuster Triple Threat Match between Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, and Braun Strowman; AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship; and the World Cup Tournament WWE has invested too much time, effort and marketing into Crown Jewel to simply cancel the event.

No, if WWE doesn’t go back to Saudi Arabia, the smart money is on them finding the best venue they can in the States.

The Staples Center in Los Angeles has bailed WWE out of a jam before, when the company got boxed out of Denver due to an NBA Playoff scheduling snafu. Otherwise, WWE may look to stay close to its home base, and seek out a traditional venue like Madison Square Garden or the Barclay Center.

Then again there’s the wrestling hotbed of Chicago which has not only been very good to WWE in recent years, but also set the stage for All In to sell out a proper arena. In the end, the final choice will finally come down to scheduling, and who has the date available, and is ready to jump at hosting this show.
