The event is controversial

"Crown Jewel" is part of a 10-year contract between WWE and the Saudi government, accused of killing Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.

The partnership was created in part to support the country's social and economic reform plan, "Vision 2030". The plan aims to promote the image of the country as "the heart of the Arab and Islamic worlds".

"Our partnership with the Saudi General Sports Authority reflects a long-term commitment to bringing WWE's world-class entertainment to a global audience on a larger scale than ever before," read a press release from WWE.

The statement was made before the pay-per-view of the "Greatest Royal Rumble" in Jeddah on April 27. The WWE was criticized after no wrestler was allowed to participate in the event due to the country's cultural norms.

Although superstars John Cena and Daniel Bryan refused to work for the event, Jacobs announced that he would still participate. WWE donates $ 100,000 to a local non-profit organization at Jacobs' request as a thank you for appearing as Kane this fall.

Not everyone is happy with the match

All superstars of the match will likely be entered in the WWE Hall of Fame someday. Shawn Michaels has already been inducted in 2011.

Despite the impressive career of superstars, some fans are not happy with the game.

Fans turned to social media to question the choice of the WWE to include prior matches to a high-level pay-per-view program rather than using the platform. form to introduce young talents.

It could be Kane's last match – for the moment

Many sources have cited an article from pwinsider.com stating that Shawn Michaels, Kane and The Undertaker should not appear in the next episode of "Raw" in England.

The match "Crown Jewel" is the first for Michaels since 2010. In a series of WWE videos chronicling his trip to Saudi Arabia, Michaels described the match as a "cheat day" rather than a comeback.

Jacobs said that he focused primarily on being a mayor, although he did not rule out possible appearances at WWE in the future. Be that as it may, it seems that this chapter in WWE history between members of Brothers of Destruction and D-Generation X is coming to an end.
