R-Truth isn’t scheduled to compete, but his presence hints at a special role. WWE’s creative team, led by Triple H, likely has plans for the charismatic star, potentially involving a backstage comedy segment to entertain fans. There’s also a chance he may surprise fans by inviting a special guest.
R-Truth could also serve as a WWE brand ambassador or official representative. Some speculate he may play a role in an angle featuring stars like The Miz or Wyatt Sicks.
Triple H Expands Crown Jewel Lineup
Since becoming WWE Chief Content Officer, Triple H has limited most premium live events (PLEs) to five matches. However, Crown Jewel will feature a stacked seven-match lineup, including top-tier talent and championship bouts.
Key matchups at Crown Jewel include:
- Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens
- Seth Rollins vs. Bronson Reed
- LA Knight (U.S. Champion) vs. Carmelo Hayes vs. Andrade in a Triple Threat Match
- Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill (Women’s Tag Team Champions) vs. Kairi Sane & IYO SKY, Piper Niven & Chelsea Green, and Jakara Jackson & Lash Legend in a Fatal Four-Way Match
In championship contests, Cody Rhodes (Undisputed WWE Champion) will face Gunther (World Heavyweight Champion), and Liv Morgan (Women’s World Champion) will clash with Nia Jax (Women’s Champion) for the WWE Women’s Crown Jewel Championship. The evening’s excitement peaks as The OG Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso) reunites to face The Bloodline 2.0 in a six-man tag match.
Crown Jewel promises to be a landmark event, with WWE’s creative lineup and surprise elements setting the stage for an unforgettable show.
