  • WWE Crown Jewel 2024 Predictions

    WWE Crown Jewel 2024 Predictions

    Welcome to Saudi Blood Money XII from Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. It is the 2nd of 2 trips that WWE will make to Saudi Arabia as part of their 10 year deal that WWE has with the kingdom.

    Today, there are 2 new titles that are going to be awarded:

    • WWE Crown Jewel Championship
    • WWE Women’s Crown Jewel Championship

    These titled are not defended in the traditional sense, but they are awarded to the winner of a Champion vs Champion match. The World Heavyweight Champion vs the Undisputed WWE Champion, and World Women’s Champion vs WWE Women’s Championship.

    Other than these, there are 2 title matches, so let’s predict:

    Title Matches

    • Cody Rhodes (Undisputed WWE Champion) vs GUNTHER (World Heavyweight Champion) in a singles match for the WWE Crown Jewel Championship.
      • PREDICTION: Hope Cody is ready to get chopped by Gunther. It’ll probably be a good match, but I cannot see Cody leaving Saudi with the CJC. Gunther to win and become CJC.
    • Nia Jax (WWE Women’s Champion) vs Liv Morgan (Women’s World Championship) in a singles match for the WWE Women’s Crown Jewel Championship.
      • PREDICTION: I have a suspicion that Nia walks out with no titles at all. Tiffany is going to cash in, cost her the CJC (Which Liv will win) and then Tiffany to take the WWE Women’s Championship off her. Liv Morgan to win the Women’s CJC.
    • Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair (C) vs Kairi Sane & Iyo Sky of Damage CTRL vs Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson of Meta-Four vs Chelsea Green & Piper Niven in a Fatal Four-way Tag Team Match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
      • PREDICTION: Jade & Bianca needs bigger opponents, and I don’t feel that the other 3 teams are worthy of that. I wouldn’t be surprised if Jade & Bianca retained, but it would be nice if Lash and Jakara won (Let’s go NXT!!)
    • LA Knight (C) vs Andrade vs Carmelo Hayes in a Triple Threat for the United States Championship.
      • PREDICTION: With Andrade and Carmelo having a ‘Best of 7 series’ to determine who would face LA Knight for the title… BOTH OF THEM ARE. Kinda shite booking in my opinion. Anyway, I don’t see either of them winning the title. LA Knight is still too hot of a character. LA Knight to win and retain.

    Non-Title Matches

    • Seth “Freakin” Rollins vs Bronson Reed in a singles match
      • PREDICTION: I think this is going to be a squash match and Bronson is going to put Seth back on the shelf for a while. Bronson to win.
    • Randy Orton vs Kevin Owens in a singles match
      • PREDICTION: There is a lot of Badd Blood (get it) with a newely heel turned Kevin Owens towards Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton. Kevin is angry that Randy is siding with Cody who in turn sided with Roman Reigns at the Bad Blood PLE. Kevin Owens to win.
    • Roman Reigns, Jey Uso & Jimmy Uso vs Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga of The Bloodline in a six-man tag team match.
      • PREDICTION: This match should be good unless it is just a brawl like the Backlash match which was just chaos. I want to this match with more members inside WarGames at Survivor Series. Roman, Jey and Jimmy to win.
    Winners
    * Cody Rhodes defeated Gunther
    * Liv Morgan defeated Nia Jax
    * Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair retained their Women’s tag titles.
    * LA Knight retained his United States Championship.
    * Seth Rollins defeated Bronson Reed
    * Kevin Owens vs Randy Orton didn’t start due to a brawl
    * Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga defeated Roman Reigns & The Usos

    And those are my predictions:
