WWE is set to visit Saudi Arabia for the second time this year when they put on their Crown Jewel event on October 31.
Only one match is booked for the show at this point, a ten-man tag team match between Team Hogan and Team Flair.
However, Cain Velasquez vs. Brock Lesnar is expected for the show, as is a showdown between Tyson Fury and Braun Strowman.
One of the aforementioned matches could be made this Friday as WWE is set to hold a press conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.
However, Fightful Select is reporting that WWE has not told several members of the roster whether they will need to make the trip to Saudi Arabia later this month:
There are several people we’ve spoken to who still aren’t sure if they’re even supposed to make the trip over to Saudi Arabia in three weeks.
WWE could be keeping the matches for the show private because they want to keep the backlash for the show as small as possible,
However, it is quite likely that WWE hasn’t told the wrestlers if they will be working the show as they haven’t finalised the card yet.
With Smackdown’s FOX debut and Hell In A Cell taking place last week, WWE has had little time to focus on building matches for Crown Jewel.
