How to Watch: WWE Network
A select few cable and satellite providers still carry WWE PPVs, but for the most part, people will be watching Crown Jewel on WWE Network. Here is a list of the devices that support the streaming service, according to WWEcom
WWE was banking on Tyson Fury and Cain Velasquez to create some buzz heading into the show. While both men have been getting attention, it is not at the level WWE was hoping for.
Boxing is not as mainstream as it used to be so many fans were unfamiliar with Fury when he arrived on the scene.
Velasquez is no longer a fixture in MMA and has been training for a career in pro wrestling prior to signing with the company. Many fans expected to see him end up in WWE eventually.
While the former UFC champion could walk away with the WWE title, Fury is not fighting for gold so the most he can hope for is to have his hand raised.
The rest of the card is standard stuff for one of these shows. WWE will hold a Tag Team Turmoil match to crown the best tag team in the world, so there will probably be a trophy involved.
Mansoor will return to his home country when he battles Cesaro in what could be a sleeper for Match of the Night. The Swiss Cyborg can have a good match against anyone so he should be able to bring the best out of the rookie.
WWE is making history with this event by holding the first women's match in Saudi Arabia with Natalya taking on Lacey Evans. This is a big deal with both the country and women everywhere as it represents a cultural shift in the region.
The most interesting bout on the card is Rollins vs. Wyatt. After what happened at Hell in a Cell and the backlash that followed, WWE has to tread carefully with how it books the end of this match.
Let's hope management comes up with something for The Fiend that will not infuriate the WWE Universe any more than it already has.
