Stephanie Vaquer was ruled out of action for a reported medical reason after Adam Pearce’s announcement on RAW last week.

However, since it was not injury-related, there is a possibility that La Primera could make her return at Crown Jewel and make her presence felt at the namesake Women’s title match at the event.

Jacob Fatu has been absent from action since the night Jaida Parker ran him over with her car. With Cruz Montana joining 946, The Bloodline has become weaker in numbers, and the Samoan Werewolf could return at the PLE in Saudi Arabia to even the odds in this heated rivalry.

3. Naomi

The Bloodline has no female name to combat the threat of Jaida Parker in 946. However, their missing fixture could finally be filled with Naomi’s return at the PLE. She has been absent since last year due to pregnancy and could finally resurface as a major part of this ongoing storyline.

2. Oba Femi

Despite being one of the top rising attractions on the broadcast, Oba Femi has been absent for a few weeks. However, The Ruler could resurface at the mega PLE to even the odds in the World Tag Team Championships match between his allies, Penta and Je’Von Evans, and his foes, The Vision.

1. Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre‘s last televised appearance for the promotion was back at WrestleMania 42. The Scottish Warrior has said he would eventually return amid his projects outside the company.

So the wait could be over at Crown Jewel, and he could insert himself into the World Championship feud by potentially interfering in the main event match.

How many matches have been announced for Crown Jewel 2026?

Four matches have been announced for the PLE with three titles on the line.

What is the main event of Crown Jewel 2026?

Roman Reigns vs Sami Zayn is one of the marquee matches on the card. The World Heavyweight Champion will face the Undisputed Champion in a Men’s Crown Jewel Championship Match.
