It is no secret that colossal battles take place in Saudi Arabia, and it will not be different at Crown Jewel. Two huge matches have been announced for the show, as Braun Strowman is set to take on Tyson Fury, and Brock Lesnar will defend the WWE Championship against his old foe, Cain Velasquez.

This old rivalry remerged on the Fox debut of SmackDown, where Lesnar won the WWE Championship. The Beast Incarnate's celebration was cut short with a shocking appearance of the former UFC Heavyweight Champion, Cain Velasquez.

The two men confronted each other again on SmackDown this week, and they certainly hyped their mega clash at Crown Jewel. While Lesnar looked eager to seek revenge for his previous loss in the Octagon, Velasquez promised to give another scar on Lesnar's face.

Since WWE have brought this rivalry in the squared circle, it is expected to be a long feud between the two former UFC fighters. The Beast will face a legit challenger at Crown Jewel, who dethroned him in their last meeting. It will be interesting to see if history repeats at Crown Jewel, and Velasquez wins the most coveted prize of WWE in his first WWE match.
