WWE will be returning to Saudi Arabia as the 2023 Crown Jewel is set to unfold once again in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The first edition of the tournament was held back in 2021. The upcoming edition of the WWE Crown Jewel will mark the 10th event hosted by the organisation in Saudi Arabia. The show is stocked with some highly anticipated matches as Roman Reigns is set to make an in-ring return which could also be his final appearance for the year. He will be defending his Undisputed Universal title against LA Knight in the main event. On the women’s side of things, Rhea Ripley will also defend her Women’s World Championship title against Raquel Rodriguez, Nia Jax, Zoey Stark and Shayna Baszler in a Fatal Five-Way match. Superstars like John Cena, Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre will also feature in the show in singles action.
WWE Crown Jewel 2023 match card
John Cena vs Solo Sikoa
John Cena has been actively involved with the Bloodline ever since his return to the WWE. He will be taking on Sikoa who seems to be fed up with the leader of the Cenation. With Cena’s long absence from the WWE, it will be exciting to see if he takes down the Bloodline powerhouse.
Rey Mysterio vs Logan Paul – WWE United States
WWE icon Rey Mysterio is set to take on internet sensation Logan Paul in a ring. Both Dominik and Ricochet have also been involved in the build-up to this match. It will be interesting to see where WWE would take this storyline.
Iyo Sky vs Bianca Belair – WWE Women’s Championship
There might not be a ton of story between Iyo Sky and Bianca Belair’s championship match but it is likely going to be a good fight. Iyo Sky might be feeling pressure as it is going to be a tough match for her. Widely treated as a babyface in the women’s roster, a win could prove a lot for her.
Seth Rollins vs Drew McIntyre- WWE World Heavyweight Title Championship Match
World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins will be defending his title against the Scottish Terminator Drew McIntyre in Riyadh. WWE has put a lot of stakes into McIntyre’s Pandemic story for the build-up of this match. The duo will have a score to settle at the Crown Jewel event while both would have to keep an eye out for the Money in the Bank briefcase winner Damian Priest.
Cody Rhodes vs Damian Priest
Rhodes cut a fiery promo to close the latest episode of Monday Night Raw, giving us a glimpse of what is to come at the Crown Jewel event. With all the build-up and hype surrounding the match, Cody can’t take the loss here.
Rhea Ripley vs Raquel Rodriguez vs Nia Jax vs Zoey Stark vs Shayna Baszler – Women’s World Championship Fatal Five Way Match
Chaos is set to unfold in Riyadh as Rhea Ripley will defend her title against four top competitors from the women’s roster. It will be interesting to see if she can overcome the odds considering her dominant showings in matches such as these.
Roman Reigns vs LA Knight
Roman Reigns returning to the WWE ring is a major happening on the show. It is a wonderful opportunity for LA Knight to make an impact amongst the fans. The upcoming WWE star will have the opportunity to beat the champ to establish himself as the new face of the company. While it may sound wild, a title switch could be seen at the WWE Crown Jewel with reports indicating that LA Knight has been a major merchandise mover for the company.
