At WWE Bad Blood, Triple H announced the Crown Jewel Championships will be crowned at the WWE Crown Jewel event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday, November 2, 2024.
Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes vs. World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER and Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan vs. Women’s Champion Nia Jax are on tap. Neither championship will be on the line when they wrestle each other. Instead, they will compete for a new Crown Jewel Champion that represents the best for that year.
During the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass Patreon, it was noted that these new titles would only be used in Saudi Arabia.
Joey Votes: “The Crown Jewel championships we’re hearing are strictly for Saudi Arabia. They may appear the week after as raws in Saudi Arabia, but they are currently scheduled not to be full-time television titles, and they will not be defended throughout the year. More of a winning of the King of the Ring type thing, where you win it, you celebrate, and then we move on. You remember [when] Braun Strowman won the greatest Royal Rumble and was presented a beautiful green title, and we haven’t seen it since. So it’s more of that type of thing.”
WrestleVotes: “Again, this is something when you have a partnership with the PIF, I believe it’s called over there in Saudi Arabia, they’re going to have requests for WWE of things that they want to see happen. And this Crown Jewel Championship was something that came to them as an idea, and WWE did a great way of figuring out a way to make it work.”
