WWE Crown Jewel 2024 start time, how to watch, match card, predictions

WWE returns to Saudi Arabia for the second time in 2024 with the Crown Jewel premium live event on Saturday, Nov. 2.

And this year’s edition of Crown Jewel promises to be bigger than any of its previous editions.

That’s because the event is introducing the Crown Jewel championships in two marquee matches.

It’s champion vs. champion on the men’s side between Cody Rhodes and Gunther and on the women’s side between Liv Morgan and Nia Jax. They’ll each fight for new Crown Jewel titles that are comprised of 50 carets of diamonds, which Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque introduced at Bad Blood last month.

If that isn’t enough, Roman Reigns, the Original Tribal Chief, reunites with his cousins The Usos to face The Bloodline 2.0 in a huge six-man tag team match.

Those three matches are part of a seven-match card at Crown Jewel, the sixth such event since 2018. It’s the 12th WWE show in Saudi Arabia since WWE formed its partnership with General Authority for Entertainment. The 10-year agreement calls for two large-scale events in the country each year (one in Riyadh and the other in Jeddah).

Here’s more on how to watch Crown Jewel, the match card and predictions.
