Seth Rollins is set to clash with Bronson Reed at Crown Jewel 2024. However, things didn’t go in favor of The Visionary on the latest episode of RAW, where he and Reed were engaged in another heated brawl. This time, the physical altercation occurred in the parking lot and ended with Reed putting Rollins through a table.

WWE has yet to confirm Seth Rollins' status following this storyline injury, but they announced he was hospitalized at a local medical facility post-attack. This suggests the Stamford-based promotion might make a last-minute change to the Crown Jewel card if Rollins is declared injured.

If this scenario unfolds, WWE legend Goldberg might step in to face Bronson Reed at the Saudi Arabia show. The WWE Hall of Famer is already rumored to appear at Crown Jewel 2024, possibly interfering in the Gunther vs. Cody Rhodes match. With potential plans for the iconic star at the event, the WCW legend replacing Seth Rollins seems like a realistic possibility if The Visionary cannot compete.

A matchup between Bronson Reed and Goldberg would also be thrilling, as Reed has been built up as a monster of late. In the past, Goldberg has dominated the biggest names in the business, like Brock Lesnar, within seconds. Replacing Rollins with Goldberg would also add a major surprise element to the premium live event.

While Goldberg has incredible feats of power against big men in the past, can the WWE Hall of Famer repeat it now? The fans could be in for a surprise if this indeed ends up happening. It remains to be seen what will unfold on Saturday, November 2, 2024, at the Mohammed Abdo Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, when WWE hosts this year's Crown Jewel PLE.


Who else could replace Seth Rollins on the Crown Jewel 2024 card against Bronson Reed?

Besides Goldberg, Braun Strowman could be a strong contender to replace Seth Rollins if a substitution is announced for the Saudi Arabian Premium Live Event. Strowman and Bronson Reed have already clashed in recent months, building a rivalry that would make Strowman an ideal replacement.

However, The Monster Among Monsters is currently on hiatus from WWE after tearing his groin on the September 30, 2024, episode of RAW, in a bout against Reed.

If Strowman recovers in time and is medically cleared, he could be a fitting replacement for Rollins, especially given his history with Bronson. The former Universal Champion even reacted to Seth and Reed’s recent brawl, stating that he managed to beat Big Bronson Reed despite his groin tear.

This suggests that Strowman is eager to settle unfinished business with Reed upon his return to the ring. Braun has already confirmed he’s in rehab, so it will be interesting to see if Crown Jewel 2024 could mark his comeback should Seth Rollins be unable to compete.
