If you take a scroll through your social media timelines today, you will see a lot of people being largely positive about Crown Jewel and the way in which WWE booked Bray Wyatt to win the Universal Championship in the main event.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

However, you will also see people questioning why the company opted for Seth Rollins to lose his title in Saudi Arabia, as opposed to earlier this month at Hell in a Cell.

The finish to the previous pay-per-view’s main event turned out to be one of the most unpopular of all time, with fans booing and chanting for refunds and rival promotions after the referee stopped the match following Rollins’ sledgehammer shot to Wyatt’s skull.

The majority of fans got what they wanted in the end, but it is still interesting to wonder why WWE decided that Crown Jewel was a better event for a title change than Hell in a Cell.

Did WWE want Rollins to lose the Universal Championship but not have to chase it (again) going into Crown Jewel? Or did they underestimate the appeal of Wyatt’s “The Fiend” character and make the decision to have him win the title following the reactions after the Hell in a Cell controversy? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
