So when the news broke about the journalist going missing/being killed in Saudi Arabia, I wondered how the WWE would handle Crown Jewel. From what I heard, they continued promoting the hell out of Crown Jewel, but didn't mention Saudi Arabia once. Curious if they're leaving the door open to moving Crown Jewel

Yes everything about Saudi Arabia has been removed, including from the website

Think they move it? Or just hold it there without saying Saudi Arabia?

 

[zjcvols]

I think they hold it there and then sever ties after the event. They’ve probably received the money for this show already

 

[zjcvols]

I know about moral codes and everything but walking away from a $450M-$500M deal for a company like WWE is a huge ask especially this close to an event

Anybody else watching Roman's announcement

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Yep, that's awful. Hopefully he can beat it again and come back soon.

They haven’t sold tickets yet. Not sure about that

 

[volfanbill]

Sucks for Roman. That’s awful.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Yep like him or hate him, he is a human

 

[jbeeman85]

Holy heck, Roman Reigns. That just....stinks man.

At least the jerk smarks actually had some class and didn't YES chant that.

 

[northknoxvol]

Wow now Crown Jewel gets a New Champion crowned for sure!

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

It has to be Strowman right? We cant possibly have Brock as champ again.

 

[Power T-Rev]

That was hard to watch. Seeing Seth Rollins cry tears was such a real moment

And Corey and Renee's comments too

 

[Power T-Rev]

And Corey and Renee's comments too

I didn't realize Corey and Roman's families were that close

 

[zjcvols]

I didn't realize Corey and Roman's families were that close

They both were in NXT at the same time so that makes sense

 

[UTK]

I haven’t been keeping up with wrestling much lately but sad news for Roman. Fan or not that sucks for anyone. Hope he had a speedy recovery.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I guess they kind of had to do that. With what happened to Roman

 

[volfanbill]

I guess they kind of had to do that. With what happened to Roman

They just wrote the script for the road to Mania

This feels like a Brock two sport champion set up to me. Lines up with what Heyman said before

Get well soon RR!

But like...there's no guarantee in UFC like there is in WWE
