Did RAW tease another world title match for WWE Crown Jewel 2023?
WWE has only announced one match thus far for Crown Jewel 2023, but that does not mean the company did not tease another match for the Riyadh Premium Live Event on RAW. WWE dropped a major tease for a huge title match on the red brand this week.
The potential match involves Rhea Ripley and Shayna Baszler. Both women came to blows this week on RAW after the Queen of Spades interfered in Nia Jax and Raquel Rodriguez’s match. Shayna knocked out the Women’s World Champion with a knee strike.
It remains to be seen if fans will get a singles match or a Fatal 4-Way match for the Women’s World Championship at WWE Crown Jewel 2023.
