The former partners to collide at Crown Jewel.
Since Mansoor arrived on Raw, he has been paired with Mustafa Ali on Raw. Their partnership came to an end on the 10/11 edition of Raw after Ali attacked Mansoor.
Heading into their match, Ali and Mansoor were on a three match losing streak. They took on the newly reformed Hurt Business (Cedric Alexander & Shelton Benjamin). When Mansoor attempted to help Ali to his feet following their loss, Ali shoved him down and that ultimately led to Ali ambushing Mansoor during a backstage segment.
