WWE’s Plans for Crown Jewel Championship at Saudi Event Revealed

WWE Crown Jewel 2024 just got even more exciting with the announcement of brand-new titles: the Crown Jewel Championships, which will be contested at WWE’s Crown Jewel event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on November 2, 2024.

At this event, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes will face World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER, and Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan will take on Women’s Champion Nia Jax. These matches won’t be about defending their current titles, but about battling for the brand-new Crown Jewel Championships, designed to showcase the “best of the year.”

Interestingly, reports indicate that these Crown Jewel Championships will be exclusive to Saudi Arabia. According to a discussion on WrestleVotes Radio, the titles won’t be regular fixtures on WWE television. Instead, they will function similarly to past special titles like the Greatest Royal Rumble title won by Braun Strowman in 2018, which was celebrated at the event but never seen or defended afterward. These new championships appear to be a way of honoring WWE’s partnership with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, ensuring unique moments for the Saudi audience.

This development gives WWE a creative way to enhance their special international events while not overshadowing the established championships. Fans are excited to see who will walk away as the inaugural Crown Jewel Champions.
