One of the most significant WWE premium live events is around the corner. WWE is set to return to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for WWE Crown Jewel. The event will emanate from Mrsool Park on November 5.
The main event will see Roman Reigns will defend the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion against internet star Logan Paul. This has been perceived as a highly unique marquee match for the massive show.
With the highly anticipated event only 3 weeks away, here is our prediction for the matches that can take place in Saudi Arabia:
1. WWE Crown Jewel 2022 Predictions- Brock Lesnar vs Bobby Lashley

Heavily rumored to take place at WWE Crown Jewel, this week’s RAW was a clear indication for this match to happen. The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar reemerged after WWE SummerSlam to confront Bobby Lashley. Lesnar quickly charged and took down the Almighty with a thunderous F-5. Furthermore, this left Lashley in a piling heap and beaten down right before his US title match against Seth Rollins. This cost him the title and could set up a Lesnar vs Lashley rematch for WWE Crown Jewel. Bobby Lashley could end his unfinished business with Brock and seek revenge for losing his US title.
2. WWE Crown Jewel 2022 Predictions – Seth Rollins (c) vs Matt Riddle for US Championship
The bitter rivalry between Matt Riddle and the new WWE United States Champion can finally see its conclusive end at Crown Jewel. Both superstars picked up a victory over each other in the last few months. Therefore, a third and final encounter is destined, but this time raising the stakes for the star-spangled title at yet another major show.
3. Goldberg vs Omos
Although some reports suggest that Goldberg is not scheduled to work at Crown Jewel, there are those who say otherwise. Early speculations hinted at the WWE Hall of Famer taking on the behemoth Omos in a big clash of the titans’ match. This would become Omos’s first major one-on-one showdown in the WWE battling a decorated Legend like Goldberg.
4. Bray Wyatt vs Braun Strowman
The history between too recently WWE return superstars, Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman is no secret. We have seen them as allies and bitter enemies on-screen. Moreover, no one can forget their intense rivalry last year leading to a trilogy of highly exciting matches. This could set the tone for a blockbuster match between Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman. With both Superstars operating on a whole different level during their second run, things will be completely different. This nostalgic feud could prove to be highly beneficial for both former Wyatt family members.
5. Sami Zayn vs Jey Uso
The brewing rivalry between Sami Zayn and Jey Uso is seeing a new twist and turn each week. Consequently, Jey has shown all signs of cracks from being unhappy at Sami’s official induction in the Bloodline to costing him a match against Riddle going against The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns’ orders. All this can lead to a collision course between Sami and Jey at the big Saudi show.
6. Ronda Rousey vs Shayna Baszler

The new Smackdown Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey finally claimed the gold from Liv Morgan. However, this could not sit well with her former cohort Shayna Baszler. Upset that Ronda dethroned Liv and Shayna’s failure to do so could build frustrations among the two and furthermore lead to a one-on-one encounter for the first time between the two MMA-sparring partners.
