10 Best Things WWE Could Do With The Crown Jewel & Saudi Arabia Money
1. Say No More
An ethically-aware ending that was always unlikely, the moving of Crown Jewel to somewhere other than Saudi Arabia wasn't ever really something WWE wanted to consider.
If the organisation wanted to do something like that, they wouldn't have signed the deal in the first place. And if they really didn't want to be associated with the toxicity of it all, they'd have since torn up the contract that apparently kept them so obligated to running the event.
WWE running Crown Jewel in the shadow of Jamal Khashoggi was pivotal to the remainder of this 10-year deal. Getting through this event ensured the stability of the 18 shows remaining. The company now have time to strategise and plan how to make the next one look a little less ugly to the outside world in the unlikely event something as hideous as this takes place out of their jurisdiction.
Those piles and piles of cash were too great for WWE to resist, but "TURN IT DOWN" feels substantially less forced a chant than the soundalike fed to Seth Rollins' fans. Crowds have booed the very mention of this event before it's even occurred - WWE may not have such an easy job torching this scandal.
