cia weapons deal gone wrong with attempted assassination of saudi crown prince by family looking to stage a coup. luckily he was plain-clothes and in a casino hiding in plain sight. the 2 guys offed the cia contact instead and proceded to shoot out through 2 windows, one each.. cia arrived, took the two bodies, blamed the other already dead guy to cover up while they got prince on a plane back home pronto.. trump squad saved his ass.. notice how UAE played ball since then? they started with allowing women to drive.. then this and that til the abraham accords.
Al Waleed Bin Talal was the one who ordered the hit. Shortly after this the majority of the Royal family was placed under house arrest in the Ritz Carlton and forced to sign over their assets.They now live off monthly allowances. Bin Talal himself was actually arrested and is still in prison IIRC.
It was over the successorship of the Al Saud Royal Family. Or at least that's what I quietly believe.

This is the most plausible theory I've read so far.
