"Oh brother", you might be thinking.

Yes, this article is claiming that it'd be for the best if the (Survivor Series spotlight stealing) Team Hogan vs. Team Flair multi-man tag went on last at Crown Jewel. The event is a glorified house show anyway, and it might not be wise to expect that Fury vs. Strowman or Lesnar vs. Velasquez can deliver a crowd-popping conclusion.

The same goes for the unpopular Rollins vs. Wyatt rivalry. That needs to be stuffed somewhere earlier in the card so WWE can move on from it quickly a few days later on TV, and it hardly screams 'stadium headliner' after HIAC's mess. That leaves the Hogan and Flair squads to duke it out for supremacy.

On the bright side, there are fans in Saudi who would never get to see icons like Hulk and Ric were it not for this sort of fare. The fact they'll come packaged with Roman Reigns, Ricochet, Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre is likely exciting for those people. It's easy to forget there are lifelong WWE locals who deserve a feel good finish.
