Unfortunate news ahead of WWE Crown Jewel; Seth Rollins, Cody Rhodes and LA Knight involved
WWE Crown Jewel takes place this weekend, and the card features seven matches. Ahead of the show, the betting odds for the biggest bouts have been released and it seems that there are set to be a few upsets on the night.
BetOnline has Gunther listed as a heavy favorite over Cody Rhodes in their Crown Jewel Championship match, while Liv Morgan is the favorite over Nia Jax. The United States Championship is expected to change hands, with Andrade -200 over champion LA Knight, who's at +155, and Carmelo Hayes at +600.
Seth Rollins is a heavy underdog against Bronson Reed, especially following the attack on RAW. The Visionary's current position is +150, while Reed is on -200.
Kevin Owens is also favored to come out on top against Randy Orton. Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill are expected to retain their Women's Tag Team Championship in their Fatal Four-Way match against Damage CTRL, Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson, and Chelsea Green & Piper Niven.
The Bloodline's match against Roman Reigns and The Usos hasn't yet been added to the Oddschecker.
WWE Crown Jewel could see several title changes or returns
WWE always manages to go all out when they take the trip to the Middle East, and Crown Jewel is expected to exceed expectations once again.
While it's likely that LA Knight could lose his United States Title, two champions will be crowned when The Crown Jewel Championship is unveiled, and there are rumors that Goldberg could return.
Goldberg has wrestled in Saudi Arabia before, and given his recent interaction with Gunther at Bad Blood, it's likely that he could be in Riyadh to cost The Ring General the Crown Jewel Championship.
It remains to be seen if Goldberg makes his return and if he will be the only surprise on the show since there is room for several shocks and surprises.
