In what could be the biggest development which could cause WWE to cancel the big Saudi Arabia show, Robbie Fox from Barstool Sports reports that the Crown Jewel event is in a lot of trouble.
John Cena and Daniel Bryan are said to be “refusing” to participate in the Crown Jewel show. We previously reported through The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, all of the production and most of the Superstars are against going to Saudi Arabia so this might be plausible, although nothing is confirmed yet.
It is also worth mentioning that Bryan Alvarez tried to confirm these rumors as they broke during Wrestling Observer Live, but he was unable to get a response with anyone acknowledging that they had heard these rumors to be true.
WWE Crown Jewel could be in trouble.I was just told Reigns is currently injured and that Cena and Bryan are “refusing” to work the show. Many on the current WWE roster have expressed concerned with going, as well, but obviously not all of them have the power like Cena/Bryan.

Fox also also reports that Roman Reigns is currently injured, which would explain why he wasn’t at the live events over the weekend. However, PWInsider is reporting that Fox’s story is not accurate and Reigns is not injured. In fact, Reigns was working out in the ring today at the Providence Civic Center where Raw will take place tonight.
According to those in the arena, Reigns looked good and there were no signs of an injury.
