As mentioned on RAW, Braun Strowman will now face Brock Lesnar one-on-one for the vacated WWE Universal Championship at Crown Jewel.
The event, which has received lots of media backlash regarding WWE’s involvement, is still scheduled for November 2nd in Saudi Arabia airing live on the WWE Network.
The match was previously scheduled as a triple threat match. However, former champion Roman Reigns was forced to vacate the championship after revealing on RAW last night that he is battling leukemia and will need to take time off.
