WWE has actual camels in the crowd for Crown Jewel and fans aren’t sure what to think
Wait, what? (Picture: WWE)
WWE Crown Jewel is underway in Saudi Arabia and fans were shocked to see actual camels in the arena.
As Seth Rollins and Edge made their way to the ring for their grudge match inside Hell In A Cell, some viewers have been a little bit distracted after seeing handlers with the mammals by the entrance.
The reaction has been a mix of awe and shock, with some fans loving the spectacle and others questioning having the animals so close to the pyro.
‘Bro are there actually live camels by the stage rn,’ one fan tweeted.
Another suggested: ‘These camels better be used in the show somehow.’
And a different viewer said: ‘The camel’s in the arena are so unnecessary, especially with all the fireworks going off (sic)’
Although the main show started with the Hell In A Cell match between Edge and Rollins, fans had already been treated to a great effort on the Kickoff as The Usos took on Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander.
The Hurt Business were tough competition for the SmackDown Tag Team Champions, but in the end Jimmy and Jey got the win.
Their cousin Roman Reigns is poised for a huge match in the main event of the evening as the Tribal Chief will defend his Universal Title against Brock Lesnar, with Paul Heyman’s loyalty called into question at the heart of the story.
