WWE Crown Jewel is just a few days away. The closing angle on this week’s Monday Night Raw featured the final hype for the big tag team match featuring The Undertaker and Kane against Shawn Michaels and Triple H. The show ended with a superkick from Shawn Michaels to The Undertaker as Triple H distracted Kane by the entrance way but Taker sat up and no-sold the kick.

As announced on Monday Night Raw, John Cena is being replaced by Bobby Lashley. WWE knew about Cena’s status last week because the creative team was told that he would not be going to Saudi Arabia but they waited until this week to make the announcement about his replacement.
WWE Crown Jewel will air this Friday at 12 pm eastern on the WWE Network.
