Brock Lesnar will not be working WWE’s Crown Jewel pay-per-view event on November 4, 2023, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He is on a hiatus from WWE after ending his feud with Cody Rhodes, which began after WrestleMania 39 and ended at SummerSlam.
Lesnar is expected to make his return to WWE in January for the Royal Rumble and the road to WrestleMania 40. This will be the first time he has not been booked for a Saudi Arabia pay-per-view event since WWE signed a deal to host two events annually in the country in 2018.
According to a report from Pwinsider, Lesnar is not being used for the show because WWE believes it already has enough “attraction” matches and appearances, including Logan Paul, John Cena, LA Knight, and Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns.
