Roman Reigns Set To Main Event WWE Crown Jewel
Roman Reigns WWE RAW August 18

Roman Reigns is reportedly expected to headline WWE Crown Jewel on Saturday (October 11th) in Perth, Australia. The OTC returned on RAW last week to come to the aid of The Usos and get revenge on The Vision's Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.

Roman Reigns To Main Event WWE Crown Jewel

There are currently four matches confirmed for Crown Jewel as of midday on Monday (October 6th) and this includes WWE Champion Cody Rhodes facing World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins for the Crown Jewel Championship. John Cena will also face AJ Styles for the final time in his career before retiring on December 13th.

It appears that neither of those matches will be the main event at RAC Arena as that honor is expected to go to Roman Reigns. Dave Meltzer reports on F4WOnline that the Tribal Chief will once again clash with Bronson Reed whom he defeated in the opening contest of August 31st's Clash in Paris PLE.

Reigns was written off TV after that match when Reed and Bron Breakker brutally attacked him and it appears he'll wage war with 'the Tribal Thief' once more. It's said that this is listed as the final match on the internal lineup sheet and that it has a "stipulation to be determined."

If this is indeed the main event in Perth, it will be Reigns' first time headlining a PLE since WrestleMania 41 night one (April 19). He took the pinfall in a triple threat match, which saw Seth Rollins win after aligning with Paul Heyman.

Another Crown Jewel Match Could Be Announced on RAW

It seems likely that Reigns' Crown Jewel match, whether that be against Reed, will be booked on RAW tonight. The Head of the Table is scheduled to open tonight's show at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.

Reigns isn't the only top star who has been announced for tonight's show as CM Punk will also be appearing. The Best in the World hasn't featured on WWE TV since he teamed up with wife AJ Lee and defeated Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch at Wrestlepalooza on September 20th.

Punk was embroiled in a lengthy feud with Rollins, but has put that on hold due to the World Heavyweight Champion facing Rhodes at Crown Jewel. It's unclear whether he will be in action in Pert, although WWE's marketing team has used him in advertising to promote the PLE.
