After two months of B-level pay-per-views, things will start to heat back up for WWE this weekend.
WWE will make its return to Saudi Arabia for Crown Jewel on Saturday. Like with every Saudi show, this will be one of WWE’s most star-studded and financially lucrative events of the year. WWE receives an estimated $50 million for every event it holds in Saudi Arabia. It’s part of a sportswashing deal between WWE and the Saudi government.
The card for Crown Jewel is a huge upgrade over Payback and Fastlane. Roman Reigns, Bianca Belair and Logan Paul are all back. John Cena is still around. Nearly every singles title will be defended. The show will help set the stage for Survivor Series and Royal Rumble season.
