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

The Greatest Royal Rumble may wind up the only WWE Network event to broadcast from Saudi Arabia.

If WWE ultimately decides that it has to relocate Crown Jewel, it will be the biggest instance of the company ever having to move a show, and is likely to be the most memorable aspect of the event from a historical perspective.

WWE management likes to control its narratives, and one way of reclaiming the story of this show would be to have something legitimately, historically important happen there, beyond a series of a high profile one off matches. While both Roman Reigns and AJ Styles are generally considered favorites to retain their titles going into this event, given the calibre of their challengers, it wouldn’t be totally out of left field for one of them to drop the title, too.

Ad

Brock Lesnar and Daniel Bryan are both former world champions who could quite reasonably collect at least a short title reign before dropping the title back (albeit with the logistical difficulties of getting Lesnar booked to appear again).

While WWE doesn’t seem to want to run with Braun Strowman as champ just yet, him taking the Universal Championship would probably produce the most memorable moment of all.
