Crown Jewel
http://www.wrestlezone.com/assets/up...-1-642x362.jpg
Undeterred by Saudi officials literally crucifying someone last month, they've gone ahead and announced their next Saudi Arabia PPV last night. November 2nd in Riyadh. Reigns, Lesnar, and Strowman in a triple threat match for the Universal Title has already been announced. And today they announced they'll be holding some sort of World Cup tournament. I dunno. Figured I'd start a thread for this given the controversial nature of the show and the likelihood of it being a ridiculously stacked card like Greatest Royal Rumble was. |
I'm guessing the WWE World Cup will be an 8-man single night tournament. While I assume they'd use people for both shows, it'd make for a nifty SmackDown tourney.
Bulgaria - Rusev Canada - Dillinger Ireland - Sheamus Japan - Nakamura Mexico - Almas Switzerland - Cesaro US - Bryan And maybe they'll throw one of those Saudi signees from the last show into the tournament to go over Tye. |
Kinda hope I'm wrong on that because that tourney is something I'd like to see and the idea of supporting this show is gross.
|
World Cup tournament could be cool. Hope Brock wins the Universal title back or Braun wins it. I liked the last show they did over there and have no problem with them going back.
|
They were contracted for two shows. I doubt there will be a third but they deal was for two.
|
I thought they signed a 10 year deal with Saudi Arabia.
|
Unless someone gets cold feet at the last minute, they've basically laid the groundwork for Brothers of Destruction vs. DX at this show.
Can't believe Michaels is going to end his retirement for this show. |
I'd be down for that on the show, I don't think Shawn will do any singles matches. If it's any consolation, DX will be telling the Arabs to suck it.
|
Then be beheaded.

"If you're not down with that, we've got two words for you!"
The KSA Sports Authority would like to issue a formal apology for one of the words used during last night's event... |

Obviously we should all trust Vince McMahon's judgement and moral aptitude.
|
Still think the PPV name is pretty bad and lazy.
Quote:
Everything about the Saudi deal has been a PR mess for the company. Holding another one only days after the all-women's event is just going to add onto those complaints. |
All cultures are equal though.

So is Jimmy Rave making his WWE debut?
|
Naming a PPV after Chase Owens will surely put those pesky Bullet Club kids back in their place.
|
So I’m guessing Iran won’t be winning the World Cup tourney.
Looking forward to watching loads of Arab men hold a business meeting in the front row of a WWE event. |

It was kinda hilarious watching all those guys in the front row with their backs to the camera for half the show. Saudi Arabia knows the proper way to protest this Reigns push.
|
I wonder if they will be asking for the Giant Gonzalez to wrestle this time.

Fuck Saudi Arabia
|
Crown Jewel sounds like a mobile app game.
|
Guys, they just behead people and put their bodies on display. They call it Crucifixion but it's not the Jesus type that we think of when we think Crucifixion.
Bottom line: Saudi Arabia is very very progressive and whomever says otherwise will be punished via crucifixion. |
Next Saudi Arabia events name should be Crucifixion

Fun Fact: The 2002 edition of that PPV was officially the last time a televised show aired under the "WWF" banner. |
