WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
Source: f4wonline.com
WWE's return to Saudi Arabia is set for Halloween.
WWE's Arabic website announced today that Crown Jewel 2019 will take place at King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Thursday, October 31. Tickets will go on sale on Monday (September 30) at 6 p.m. local time.
Seth Rollins, Kofi Kingston, Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt, Braun Strowman, The New Day, Randy Orton, AJ Styles, Rey Mysterio, and NXT's Mansoor are advertised for Crown Jewel, along with Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair making special appearances.
The Undertaker also appeared in a video announcing the show.
With SmackDown moving to Friday nights on FOX, SmackDown will take place the day after Crown Jewel.
WWE's first Crown Jewel event was held in Riyadh last November, with WWE going ahead with the show despite the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.
Crown Jewel 2019 will be the fourth event in WWE's 10-year deal with the Saudi General Sports Authority.
Alexa Bliss and Natalya traveled to Saudi Arabia for Super ShowDown this June, but a match between them was not approved by the Saudi government.

Nah dude, I’m WAY scarier.
I’m what the Fiend has nightmares about.
Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
Hahahahaha! Look at f'n Xavier Woods... like he knows he probably shouldn't be on a PPV poster, but it just so happens to be THIS ppv poster... he knows their whole schtick is going to get axed (or their heads), but he's still back there thinkin' about dry humping something anyway... on a poster with all former/current heavyweight champions, and Big E who is going to troll the shit out of the situation and likely be decapitated for real on the internet.

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
"The Fiend" shouldn't be on posters.
Why would a character like The Fiend is made out to be agree to stand still and have promotional photographs taken? He wouldn't. Look at any PPV poster containing Kane or the Undertaker. They are still remarkably in character, everyone can tell here that Bray Wyatt has been uniform with everyone else standing slightly to one side and allowed the camera operative take a picture without taking a mandible claw for their troubles.
Shit like this gets overlooked so often.

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
Are you saying that the Fiend being photographed like this breaks kayfabe and thus hurts the character, or that using the character in such a mundane way hurts the character?XIV wrote: ↑Sep 29th, '19, 12:38Doesn’t matter where they’ve photoshopped him in from.

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
I think its the first. I get where he's coming from too. I didn't think of it until he said it but it's bugging me now too lolBig Red Machine wrote: ↑Sep 29th, '19, 13:12Are you saying that the Fiend being photographed like this breaks kayfabe and thus hurts the character, or that using the character in such a mundane way hurts the character?XIV wrote: ↑Sep 29th, '19, 12:38Doesn’t matter where they’ve photoshopped him in from.

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
I mean, both are true. but I was referring to breaking kayfabe and hurting the chracter. I even googled old PPV posters containing Kane or The Undertaker and both have them in character and kayfabe which hurts less than "I'm this uncontrollable personality of a psychopath but sure I'll pause of a nice photo the same as everyone elese".Big Red Machine wrote: ↑Sep 29th, '19, 13:12Are you saying that the Fiend being photographed like this breaks kayfabe and thus hurts the character, or that using the character in such a mundane way hurts the character?XIV wrote: ↑Sep 29th, '19, 12:38Doesn’t matter where they’ve photoshopped him in from.

It's just one of those small things that bugs me and hurts a character because it shows that it's phoney.

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
Different lines, then, as I find the photo-shop explanation perfectly good. I'm sure in all of the footage they've had of him, there was a frame they could take where he matched this position. Or maybe they even glued the head from one Fiend screenshot onto the body of another.XIV wrote: ↑Sep 30th, '19, 02:41I mean, both are true. but I was referring to breaking kayfabe and hurting the chracter.

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
I think it can be ok as far as the poster is about him, but this one just makes him look like one of the boys, even if photoshoppedBig Red Machine wrote: ↑Oct 1st, '19, 23:45

Exactly this. Photoshopped or not, this is not how to present this character.cero2k wrote: ↑Oct 2nd, '19, 08:47I think it can be ok as far as the poster is about him, but this one just makes him look like one of the boys, even if photoshoppedBig Red Machine wrote: ↑Oct 1st, '19, 23:45

Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
i'd be, preferably as dark halloween looking one, not a Crown Jewel one.
Re: WWE announces Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for Halloween
I’d prefer he wasn’t on posters at all, it just doesn’t fit.
