Bengaluru, Oct 29: The Jamal Khashoggi controversy continues to create uproar amongst top nations in the world as WWE prepares to visit Saudi Arabia. On Friday night, one of the biggest global PPV events will take place in the country with a super match card. Behemoth names from WWE roster will perform on the show titled Crown Jewel.
Previously, there were doubts whether WWE would shift Crown Jewel to a separate venue under immense pressure. However, they released an official statement on Thursday night confirming that the event will be hosted as per the usual schedule. It is clear that millions of dollars turned out to be the big reason that Saudi Arabia Sports Authority was successful to keep the show intact in their country.
But the backlash continues, as two of the major players are not willing to participate at Crown Jewel. John Cena and Daniel Bryan are the two names who are reportedly not happy with WWE's moves and denied participating in their scheduled matches. Rumours suggested there could be more names in the list. But those are not big stars like these two to come up with personal agendas.
