There are plenty of belts that exist within the three WWE brands, from RAW to NXT to SmackDown, but that doesn’t mean each carries enough cache to matter when it comes to who might be carrying it, but Paul “Triple H” Levesque is hoping his blockbuster announcement at Bad Blood in Atlanta will change that — with the WWE Crown Jewel Championship.
Four weeks from now, in Saudi Arabia, will mark the inaugural matches (plural) to institute the first-ever Crown Jewel Champions, with the reigning WWE Champion facing the reigning WWE World Champion, in both the men’s and women’s divisions.
BOBBY LASHLEY MAKES BOMBSHELL DECISION
Levesque unveiled the hardware in Atlanta, and it is quite a sight to behold, that’s for sure.

The only stipulation is that neither of the existing belts will be on the line in the match(es), i.e., no one can walk away with two belts and try to become the next Roman Reigns, pre-Universal Championship.
As it stands, this would pit Cody Rhodes against Gunther and Nia Jax against the winner of the Liv Morgan vs. Rhea Ripley rematch, if none of the aforementioned drop their belts before Crown Jewel.
Let this tournament of champions begin.
