10 Big Concerns Heading Into WWE Crown Jewel 2021

10. Ending Mansoor's Purpose

The title of this concern isn't supposed to be mean.

Clearly, Mansoor has got some skills between the ropes and he has shown some signs of developing since arriving on RAW earlier this year. But he is still pretty green and sticking him in another "how can they co-exist?" tag team with Mustafa Ali has been a smart move.

Together, they had slowly become one of the more bearable parts of Monday's three-hour slog and there was an obvious, slow-burn storyline to play out with Ali either bringing Mansoor up to his level and they claim the gold, or the inevitable split after coming so close.

WWE realised that Mansoor, the hometown hero of these Saudi shows, didn't have a match on the card so they hot-shotted the break up to this past week and now, besides these Saudi shows, Mansoor is directionless.

Mansoor needs to beat Ali. Otherwise what the hell was the point in it? Surely they could have just built a quick, two week feud with a team like Alpha Academy or the Dirty Dawgs and have Mansoor finally show Ali he was worth his time?

If Ali beats Mansoor, not only doesn't it defeat the purpose of the turn, it kind of makes Mansoor completely redundant as a main roster concern.
