The afternoon show in southern Ontario, Canada proved to be a banger. It featured a stacked-up match card involving an array of storylines, some with noticeable outcomes. From Roman Reigns receiving boos to the bewildering finish of the Fatal Five Way Women’s Match, here’s all the best bits of Crown Jewel for you in a nutshell.

A quick sneak peek into all the hot favorite moments of Crown Jewel 2023

As Seth Rollins made it through the match against Drew McIntyre retaining his World Heavyweight Championship, Damian Priest tried to creep in with a desperate attempt to cash in his MITB contract. However, his plan was foiled, thanks to the hooded figure, Sami Zayn, who interrupted him and threw Priest into the ring post.

The next cynosure came in the form of the staggering Women’s Fatal Five-Way match. With WWE’s touting attempt to flaunt the progressiveness of bringing all the alpha females into the scene, the match proved to be a fan favorite. Rhea Ripley, Shayana Baszler, Zoey Stark, Nia Jax, and Raquel Rodriguez joined each other in the ring to get the better of each other for the Women’s World Championship. Rhea Ripley had the last laugh dropping a Riptide on Zoey Stark on top of Rodriguez and Baszler.

Crowds were also in shock when a boastful Grayson Waller made an appearance. He simply destroyed The Miz’s segment. Following his cheap shot at Al Hajjaj, The Miz launched an attack and got his pride crushed. Hajjaj and The Awesome One had a celebration afterward.

Coming to the most hyped-up main event, Roman Reigns had a predictive yet hard-fought win against LA Knight. That said, he lost his fan-favorite status in the process. Despite his less methodical and more explosive win, fans were heard throwing humiliating words toward him. The loud ‘Roman Reigns: You suck, you can’t wrestle’ chanting de-glamorised his victory to some extent.
