On Friday, November 2, the stars of WWE will head to Saudi Arabia for Crown Jewel, and originally Roman Reigns was set to defend his Universal Championship against Braun Strowman and Brock Lesnar in a triple threat match at the event.
However, Roman kicked off Raw this week, and he announced that he’s had leukemia for 11 years, and it’s back.
Roman then relinquished the Universal Championship and said that he’s going home to focus on his family, but he will be back after he kicks leukemia’s ass.
Following Roman’s big announcement on Raw, WWE confirmed that Brock Lesnar and Braun Strowman will face off in a singles match with the vacant title on the line at Crown Jewel.
