WWE Crown Jewel is set to take place today and it will emanate from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The card is stacked up with some huge matches. Xero News has reported that Drew McIntyre vs Karrion Kross in a Steel Cage match is likely to kick off the show. Meanwhile, the outlet has also reported that WWE United States Champion Seth Rollins is set to issue an Open Challenge. It has been reported that it is still scheduled to take place and will be treated as a “Surprise Unannounced Open Challenge”.
‘The Visionary’ had captured the title for the second time in his career on the season premiere of the red brand by defeating Bobby Lashley. The latter wasn’t at a hundred percent, as a returning Brock Lesnar attacked him before the match started.

FightfulSelect.com reports, “We’re told at Crown Jewel, there was an active plan to have a UFC style ‘locker room look in’ at Logan Paul with Jake Paul preparing in his locker room, and Roman Reigns in his locker room preparing.” Roman Reigns is the betting favorite to win, though Logan Paul’s odds improved with news of his brother Jake Paul cornering him.
FightfulSelect also wrote, “Logan Paul and Roman Reigns were supposed to get the most amount of time from segment start to end. Omos and Braun Strowman the shortest.
As of this morning, Lashley vs. Lesnar, Women’s Tag Match and Men’s tag title match were slated for roughly the same amount of time in total, and the cage match, OC/Judgment Day, and Last Woman Standing were to get a little more time.”
