#5 Brock Lesnar offers Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and Jimmy Hart a ride

Hulk Hogan was recently stuck in a precarious predicament when the tires of his plain burst in Iceland. The Hulkster along with Hart and Flair was en route to Saudi Arabia from the USA to join the Superstars for Crown Jewel.

However as per Mike Johnson of PWI, much to the relief for the three legends, Brock Lesnar saved the day as his plane was in Iceland at the same time and The Beast offered the three legends a seat on his private plane which was also heading to Saudi.

Hulk Hogan had taken to Facebook to give a video update of his travel situation where he hinted that a 'Minnesota boy' had helped him out:

Over there is a buddy of ours and he's got the same type of plane we were on, and he's going to be graceful enough to let us climb on board to continue the journey. Former Minnesota boy... we're going to make it."

Brock Lesnar will be defending his WWE Championship against his rival from UFC, Cain Velasquez at Crown Jewel whereas Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair will be in the corners of their respective 5-member teams which will go up against each other at the mega event in Saudi Arabia.

#4 Paige may make an in-ring return

The former NXT Women's Champion Paige might be making an in-ring return in a match against Asuka as per reports. The 27-year-old had to retire 2 years back owing to a neck injury and has only been seen in a non-wrestling capacity since then.

Here is what Cagesideseats has stated:

There’s been talk of WWE setting up Paige for an in-ring return with the segment with Asuka on RAW this week but it doesn’t appear as though anything has changed with her potentially wrestling again.

#3 Bray Wyatt to turn face

There has been a lot of chatter about the Universal Champion turning heel soon owing to his recent actions and a more edgy character. Fightful have reported that WWE always intended a match between The Fiend and The Architect to take place in Saudi Arabia. Not only that, a double turn is possibly planned for the show.

However, given the controversial ending to their last encounter at Hell in a Cell, it is not clear if WWE may have changed their plans for Crown Jewel.

It is highly unlikely that The Fiend will be able to win the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel, and we can only hope that WWE can come up with a better finish than they did at HIAC.

#2 Historic match announced for Crown Jewel

WWE announced today that they will be making history yet again as Lacey Evans will take on Natalya at Crown Jewel in what will be the first-ever Women's match to take place in Saudi Arabia. Not only is it a great opportunity for Natalya and Evans, but this opens the doors for numerous more opportunities for all the female athletes in WWE.

Natalya took to Twitter and had an inspirational message to share:

The world will be watching. I am so incredibly proud to represent our women’s division tomorrow night at #WWECrownJewel. It’s time to bring your best, Lacey.

#1 Backstage reason why WWE chose Natalya and Lacey Evans

As per Tom Colohue of SportsKeeda, his sources have stated that there are multiple reasons behind choosing these two women for the historic match.

One of the main reasons behind choosing the two was because a feud between the two already existed, and they both represented different brands. Not just that, both these Superstars are believed to be positive about Saudi Arabia.

As per Tom Colohue:

Lacey Evans is also believed to be positive about Saudi Arabia, with a strong desire to enact change. The feud already exists, even though it has petered out in recent weeks and the two women now represent different brands.
