WWE Crown Jewel 2025 promises to reignite the excitement that WrestlePalooza failed to deliver. After the lukewarm response to WWE’s ESPN debut event, Chief Content Officer Triple H had vowed “major surprises” to kick off a new era for the company.
However, fans were left underwhelmed when the only notable moment was Stephanie McMahon’s Hall of Fame induction revelation. Now, WWE looks to redeem itself in Perth, Australia, with an event stacked with possibilities for shocking returns, game-changing moments, and storylines that could redefine the road to Survivor Series.
A second chance for WWE’s ESPN era
Crown Jewel 2025 marks WWE’s opportunity to make good on its earlier promises. With just five matches on the card, the company is reportedly preparing to make each one count. As the final stop before Survivor Series, this premium live event could serve as a pivotal reset for ongoing feuds and future storylines. WWE needs a spectacle—one filled with drama, twists, and unforgettable outcomes—to win back fans and critics alike.
John Cena’s next rivalry takes shape
After Crown Jewel, John Cena has just four scheduled appearances left before his anticipated hiatus. His showdown against AJ Styles in Perth is being touted as their “last-ever match,” and the outcome could set the tone for his next big rivalry.
Reports suggest WWE is considering a feud between Cena and Dominik Mysterio, potentially culminating at Survivor Series in Mysterio’s hometown of San Diego. With limited time to build this storyline, WWE might use Crown Jewel as the perfect stage to kickstart the angle. A post-match attack by Mysterio or The Judgment Day could provide the spark needed to ignite a high-stakes feud that bridges generations.
Tiffany Stratton poised for a shocking heel turn
Tiffany Stratton’s reign as WWE Women’s Champion has been missing the fire fans expected. Despite victories over elite names like Nia Jax, Charlotte Flair, Trish Stratus, and Jade Cargill, her momentum seems stagnant.
At Crown Jewel, Stratton faces Stephanie Vaquer, one of the most beloved babyfaces in the women’s division. A loss could serve as the perfect catalyst for Stratton’s long-awaited heel turn. Given her natural flair for villainy, a post-match betrayal or outburst could rejuvenate her character and reestablish her dominance in the division.
Bronson Reed’s moment of glory against Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns, the face of WWE dominance, will face Bronson Reed in an Australian Street Fight—a high-stakes battle on Reed’s home turf. Their previous encounter at WWE Clash in Paris ended in Reigns’ victory, but this time, the odds favor Reed.
With the Street Fight stipulation allowing for chaos and unpredictability, WWE could script a shocking outcome—Reed defeating Reigns cleanly. Such a win would not only elevate Reed into the upper echelon of WWE villains but also inject fresh energy into Raw’s singles division. It would be a stunning upset, one that fans would talk about long after the show ends.
Randy Orton’s heel turn against Cody Rhodes looms large
SmackDown’s heel roster has been running thin, and a major turn could shift the balance. Randy Orton, though still adored by fans, remains the most fitting candidate to embrace his darker side once more.
WWE Champion Cody Rhodes needs formidable challengers, and an Orton betrayal could deliver just that. Many insiders believe Orton might cost Rhodes his match against Seth Rollins at Crown Jewel—not accidentally, but deliberately—setting up an explosive feud heading into WrestleMania season.
A night of redemption and revelation
Crown Jewel 2025 isn’t just another PLE—it’s WWE’s chance to reclaim its magic. From potential heel turns to legendary rivalries reborn, the event in Perth could deliver everything WrestlePalooza didn’t: drama, shock, and unforgettable moments that define eras.
