WWE has announced more details regarding its return to Australia later in the year with 2 TV tapings and a Premium Live Event.
As announced on May 2nd, Crown Jewel will emanate from the RAC Arena in Perth on October 11th with a SmackDown taping taking place the night before and a Raw taping set for October 13th, also in the same venue.
While not announced, it is expected that the promotion will once again see the top male and female champions face off to determine the 2025 Crown Jewel Champions. In 2024, Cody Rhodes defeated Gunther and Liv Morgan defeated Nia Jax to each become the inaugural champions at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. Ahead of the show, it was announced that the Crown Jewel titles would be contested in subsequent years.
Over WrestleMania weekend, it was announced that the company would be coming back to Australia in 2025 following the success of the 2024 event. It has also been announced that John Cena will be at the show in what will be his final appearance in Australia as a WWE Superstar.
The show will be broadcast at around 10 am UK time.
