“Raw” ignites expectations for Crown Jewel
A few days before WWE lands in Perth, Australia, for the Crown Jewel event, the “Raw” program has raised new questions about the status and future of the World Heavyweight Championship.
Three wrestlers, Jey Uso, CM Punk, and LA Knight, eagerly await the opportunity to compete for the title. Meanwhile, the current champion, Seth Rollins, focuses on winning at Crown Jewel against Cody Rhodes, an opponent he has yet to defeat in WWE.
Featured results for “Raw”
- Maxxine Dupri defeated Becky Lynch by count-out.
- Roxanne Perez defeated Lyra Valkyria.
- Kairi Sane defeated Iyo Sky.
- Penta, AJ Styles, and Dragon Lee defeated Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh, and Finn Balor.
- CM Punk and LA Knight defeated The Usos.
The situation for the Heavyweight World Championship is becoming increasingly interesting.
The confrontation between Punk, Knight, and Uso, who verbally competed for the title opportunity, elevated the importance of the championship. Rollins was not present, which added tension to the atmosphere.
The main tag team event between Punk and Knight against Jey and Jimmy Uso reminded everyone that the rivalry is present in every corner of WWE.
The match between Rollins and Rhodes at Crown Jewel promises to be entertaining, but it is anticipated that both champions will go their separate ways after the event.
Other key points of “Raw”
“Raw” prepared an Australian Street Fight match at Crown Jewel between Roman Reigns and Bronson Reed. It is not yet clear what the differences are with other WWE street fights, as the rules seem similar.
The match between Lynch and Dupri was entertaining, with a creative finish that saw Lynch lose by count-out. Lynch questioned referee Jessika Carr.
Bayley, who accompanied Valkyria in her match with Perez, showed her duality, bringing out her aggressive side. This story seems like a developing conflict, and Valkyria could be the final victim.
Rollins pressed his manager, Paul Heyman, about his next moves in case Rollins lost against Rhodes at Crown Jewel. Heyman responded that he would question why he chose Rollins over Roman Reigns.
At the end of last week’s “Raw”, it seemed that the original Bloodline could be forming, but this week sowed doubts, with Reigns, Jey and Jimmy Uso unable to agree.
After Styles secured the victory for his team in the six-man match, he took the microphone and declared that the story for his next match with John Cena at Crown Jewel “writes itself”.
