Crown Jewel 2024

This is actually a pretty decent card, on paper.

The opener was just okay. Felt like it never really kicked into second gear. Jacob Fatu is awesome. Can’t say I was expecting that finish.

That women’s tag match was…not so good. Mind you, I had no idea who the “Meta- Four” are, I have literally never seen them before.

I hope Rollins/Reed is good, because this show is kinda dying on the vine here.

That match didn’t really do anything for me either. And now it’s an Nia Jax match? I think not. I’m out of here.

To be fair Nia has been much better in this run. Granted that is damning with faint praise, but still.

Love that KO is sporting the Cowboy Bob shirt tonight

The Crown Jewel title reminds me of the old Mid South big ass North American title

I had exactly that same thought the first time I saw it.

Overall, I thought the show was decent and fun but I understand those saying that some matches were underwhelming or had the wrong result. But nothing too egregious for me to be angry about.

Yeah the show wasn't bad by any stretch, but it felt very B-show in the sense of everything was clearly just forwarding storylines. That also is fine, but they usually try to make the Saudi shows a little more special so in that sense it was underwhelming

I'm guessing the Bloodline saga will have Roman/Usos/Sami all squabbling until Heyman comes back to guide the ship again.
