WWE is gearing up for its sixth Crown Jewel event from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The 2024 edition of the premium live event will be a history-making show for multiple reasons. WWE has now provided updates on Crown Jewel and the first RAW from the Kingdom, including Roman Reigns' status.

The PLE is scheduled to take place at the Mohammed Abdo Arena in Riyadh on Saturday, November 2. The first-ever RAW taping from Saudi Arabia is booked for the same venue the next day, Sunday, November 3, to broadcast in its normal Monday timeslot.

WWE now has several top superstars advertised for the RAW taking place in Saudi. World Heavyweight Champion Gunther has been featured front-and-center on RAW advertising for that week, along with Intercontinental Champion Jey Uso, Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, and Sami Zayn.

Promotional material from the Kingdom also lists Rhea Ripley, Dominik Mysterio, Bronson Reed, IYO SKY, and Kairi Sane.

Roman Reigns was confirmed for Crown Jewel weekend in today's press release to announce tickets, along with Bron Breakker, Randy Orton, CM Punk, Bianca Belair, The New Day, and Damian Priest. The wrestling events were touted as one of the highlights of Riyadh Season 2024.


Update on WWE Crown Jewel PLE plans

World Wrestling Entertainment currently has two matches confirmed for Crown Jewel. The history-making PLE will see Triple H crown the inaugural Crown Jewel Champion for the men's division and the women's division.

Fans have speculated on Seth Rollins vs. Bronson Reed for Crown Jewel, as well as Intercontinental Champion Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker. However, word came down this week that neither match is planned for the premium live event, but The Visionary vs. The King Of Monsters may be added. It was just confirmed that Breakker vs. Uso will happen next Monday.
