WWE starts Crown Jewel push as show still happening despite attacks in Riyadh

10/13/2026

No bombs raining on Riyadh airport will stop WWE from performing in the country next month as WWE has doubled down on its commitment and started heavily advertising Crown Jewel last night on Raw.

The top two matches – Roman Reigns vs Sami Zayn and Chelsea Green vs Liv Morgan – will headline the broadcast from Saudi Arabia, with the winner of each match receiving the Crown Jewel championship.

The original poster with Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Randy Orton, and Penta has been replaced with Reigns, Zayn, Green, and Morgan all carrying their respective titles.

The U.S. Department of State has issued notices telling American citizens to avoid traveling to the city due to the attacks. Crown Jewel is nearly sold out, although it will be a local crowd.

The show will start at Noon ET on Saturday, November 7 live on ESPN and Netflix.
