The WWE Crown Jewel Championship involves a unique twist to the championship tradition. WWE announced that instead of receiving the actual championship belts, the winners of the WWE Crown Jewel Championship matches will be awarded a “massive ring” similar to a Super Bowl ring.
This decision was confirmed by Triple H during the Crown Jewel kickoff event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Here are the key points:
The winners of the inaugural WWE Crown Jewel Championship matches will receive a significant ring as a symbol of their victory, rather than taking home the championship belt.
The Crown Jewel Championship belts themselves will remain in Saudi Arabia, showcased at the WWE Experience fan attraction.
This year’s Crown Jewel event, taking place on November 2, 2024, features champion vs. champion matches where neither individual’s current title (like the WWE World Heavyweight Championship or the Undisputed WWE Championship) is on the line. Instead, they compete for the honor of being the Crown Jewel Champion.
This setup, including the awarding of rings, is intended to be an annual theme for future Crown Jewel events, emphasizing the prestige and uniqueness of this particular championship.
This approach seems to add a layer of exclusivity and prestige to the Crown Jewel event, aligning with WWE’s strategy to make each event memorable while also maintaining a connection with Saudi Arabia through the display of the championship belts there.
