With WWE deciding to move forward with the Crown Jewel PPV in Saudi Arabia as planned and it's now been revealed that John Cena's status hasn't changed since Monday. According to Barstool Sports' Robbie Fox, Cena is 100% off the show despite being advertised for the World Cup tournament on RAW and SmackDown Live this week. So, what exactly is WWE going to do about that?
It seems as if there's not much they can do; while WWE is pushing for Cena to still do the show, there's no change on his end and the WWE Creative team has already been told that he won't attend.
Bear in mind that Daniel Bryan (who hasn't Tweeted anything about Crown Jewel since the news about journalist Jamal Khashoggi's murder first surfaced) is also refusing to go but there's no update on that. Assuming he doesn't appear, Styles will more than likely take Cena's place in the World Cup tournament rather than defending the WWE Championship. For now, we'll have to just wait and see.
