In the wake of the news of Roman Reigns relinquishing the WWE Universal Title after suffering from a relapse of the leukemia that he has been living with for the last 11 years, a major change has been announced for the Universal Championship Match at Crown Jewel on November 2nd.

With Roman Reigns taking time away from WWE while he battles leukemia, the WWE Universal Title is now vacant. It was later announced on RAW that the Universal Championship Match at Crown Jewel will now be a singles match between Braun Strowman and Brock Lesnar.
