WWE Crown Jewel 2019: 5 reasons why Seth Rollins is no longer competing twice on the same night

Modified Oct 22, 2019 16:39 GMT

Seth Rollins will look to win against The Fiend and retain his title

#4 Lack of intimidating feuds

WWE Crown Jewel 2019 will witness Braun Strowman going up against boxing legend Tyson Fury. Brock Lesnar is also set to defend his WWE Championship against former UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez.

There are few more matches booked for the PPV but the one thing that remains common in all these fights is the lack of credible build-up. These bookings look great on paper but they don’t have the fans invested enough to feel passionate about the match.

The feud between Rollins and The Fiend, on the other hand, has managed to keep the fans on the edge of their seats ever since it started. Despite a few disappointing segments, this rivalry has the entire WWE Universe talking and aggressively picking sides.

With the limited time that WWE have for building up a feud that will draw attention at the upcoming PPV, it was a safe move to bet on this booking. Fans are already unhappy with the finish to the Hell in a Cell match between Rollins and The Fiend. Hence, it allows room for more creative results that will hopefully be much better than their previous match.
