The enigmatic presence of Bray Wyatt will be felt at this Saturday’s WWE Crown Jewel Premium Live Event.
Wyatt returned to WWE at Extreme Rules 2022 after weeks of teaser videos, and his return has received rave reviews from fans so far.
During Raw, it was confirmed that Wyatt will be at the event, scheduled to take place this Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
It was not announced what Wyatt will be doing, though given that it was promoted as an appearance, a match seems unlikely.
Wyatt and Saudi Arabia
Wyatt has competed multiple times in the Middle Eastern kingdom but has had mixed results.
In 2019, Wyatt captured the Universal Championship from Seth Rollins at that year’s Crown Jewel, following their much-maligned Hell in a Cell match the prior month.
Wyatt’s reign would end at the 2020 Super Showdown event in Saudi Arabia, where his ‘The Fiend’ persona was crushed by Bill Goldberg.
The title change, mere weeks short of WrestleMania 36, received backlash from fans, who disagreed with WWE putting the then-53-year-old Goldberg over the popular Wyatt.
Not Coming Alone?
If Wyatt does not wrestle at Crown Jewel 2022, then it raises the question as to what will he do on the show.
It is possible that Uncle Howdy could also appear at Crown Jewel, after fans caught their first glimpse of the character last week.
On SmackDown, the character confronted Wyatt on the titantron, encouraging the former Universal Champion to embrace who he really is.
It is unclear if the character will be played by Wyatt, or if someone else will portray Uncle Howdy in person.
