I think Chelsea and Piper are in the women's tag title match too?

At this point I’m really only looking forward to the US title match. I could care less about every other match.

Re: WWE Crown Jewel 11/2/24

The kickoff show felt weird.

Cole hyping up the Bloodline 6 man tag match...which I don't think was made official yet? But then he's also talking about Smackdown (taped last week in which they announced on the taped show the new match addition) as if it's happening later tonight (aka WWEs teleportation system is sending everyone back to the US for one night).

I'm sure we all know it's inevitable with SA one day getting Wrestlemania which would suck for the fans who travel to each one and will probably avoid that one, but HHH just sidestepped it quickly when fans were chanting it at the kickoff show, trolling them being like "Yes, Wrestlemania, this year will be in Las Vegas."

All the hype for the last month for the actual crown Jewel title that people are fighting for and how valuable it is and all that, just to be like "the winner WON'T get the actual title, they'll get a ring."

This is the first time since MITB 2023 that the Usos are teaming together (ironically enough against Reigns and Solo).

And first time Reigns and the Usos team up since Survivor Series Wargames 2022. That match was truly the peak of the Bloodline.

It reminds me of DX. Everyone remembers the group, but how many actual matches did we see with every member of that group together (whether it be the HHH/HBK duo in 97-98 or the NAO/HHH/XPAC group after).

Kind of hoping someone not part of the bloodlines costs Reigns’ team the match

Re: WWE Crown Jewel 11/2/24

I enjoy a majority of the ladies in the women's tag match, so I'm definitely down for it. Even if it's just a repeat of last night's Smackdown.

Yeah, this has been a fun match.

That Doomsday Device was insane!

This was the perfect match to have Bianca/Jade to lose without being beat. Guess they're saving those twos split until RTWM season perhaps? Bianca vs Jade at WM if it happens would be good.

When will Chelsea finally get her big break? By big break I mean winning a title, not getting broken in half by her own partner.

Liv wins the women's crown Jewel title and Tiffany doesn't even cash in!?

Show was ok... I really enjoyed the tension between Jey and Roman, then after the match with Sami inadvertently hitting Roman with Jimmy getting mad at Sami. The fact Jey came out by himself and not with Roman & Jimmy was such a good decision. Sami definitely was trying to save Jey, didn't do it for Roman & Jimmy.

Women's Tag Match was awesome, US Title match was good too. The Tiffany cash in teases are a bit overdone, I'd like for Tiffany to lay low and then surprise cash in when nobody expects it. As soon as Liv won, I knew Cody was winning to close the show. It's whatever... time for William Regal to return to TV to yell War Games!

Even though it's a SA show, I loved the crowd for the show. This was probably their best crowd yet, felt like a typical overseas crowd.

The match order/pacing felt off to me. Kicking off the night with that tag match? Seems to be what HHHs booking has been like, the 2nd biggest match of the show/biggest story that doesn't involve a world title is the shows opener.

Don't know how Noam/Oro will do on the main roster (if they utilize the tag division more, those 2 could be brought up and have the full Meta-Four group up), but Lash has improved a lot since her early NXT says when she didn't even wrestle and was just hosting "Lashing Out with Lash Legend". She actually seemed like the bigger star when she was facing off with "Cora Jade" Cargill (Michael Coles slip up).

The Crown Jewel title matches were exactly what you expected, nothing special about the matches, winner gets the random title/"superbowl rings" that means nothing outside of the SA show.

All eyes are obviously on Wargames now. If HHH doesn't book the ending shot of a SD being the OG Bloodline reunited in the ring while Regal just appears on the stage and yells WARGAMES, he'd have failed big time.

Orton vs KO "pt2" will be interesting. KO is the heel in Canada in an era where home country stars get much more love than they have in the past, will KO suddenly be cheered or will he be able to get the Canadian fans to boo him?
