The WWE has announced its next premium live event, Crown Jewel 2025, which will take place on October 11 in Perth, Australia. This will be the first time the event is held outside Saudi Arabia. The upcoming edition of WWE RAW is expected to advance ongoing storylines and set the stage for Crown Jewel, with four potential matches likely to be confirmed on this week’s episode.

One possible bout could feature Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY versus The Kabuki Warriors. Last week, Ripley defeated Asuka, who then attacked Mami with poison mist. Kairi Sane joined Asuka, but IYO SKY intervened to save Ripley, only for Asuka to turn on SKY with a spinning strike. Tonight’s RAW may address these developments and lead to a tag‑team match between the two pairs at Crown Jewel.

Another potential contest is Dominik Mysterio versus Rusev for the Intercontinental Championship. Rusev has announced his intention to become champion, and Mysterio is slated to defend the title against the Bulgarian Brute on RAW. The match could involve interference from The Judgment Day or Mysterio’s ally El Grande Americano, possibly setting up a rematch at Crown Jewel.

A third likely matchup is Bayley versus Lyra Valkyria. Bayley’s recent character shift has created tension with Valkyria, and the veteran’s darker side is emerging. Last week, Bayley defeated Roxanne Perez and then shoved Valkyria to the mat, berating her. Tonight, Bayley faces Raquel Rodriguez, which may prompt her to fully turn on Valkyria and confirm a Crown Jewel match.

Finally, AJ Lee may challenge Becky Lynch for the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship. Lee returned to the ring at WWE Wrestlepalooza, teaming with CM Punk to defeat Lynch and Seth Rollins, and she submitted Lynch with her signature Black Widow hold, potentially earning a title shot. Tonight’s RAW could confirm this bout for Crown Jewel.

These prospective matches highlight the excitement building toward Crown Jewel 2025. As WWE continues to generate momentum, fans can look forward to an action‑packed night of wrestling on October 11 in Perth, Australia.
