The WWE presented the Premium Live Event Crown Jewel 2026 on November 7 in Saudi Arabia, and it was the moment to crown the supreme champion for this Champion vs Champion clash.
An encounter pitted Sami Zayn against Roman Reigns, the undisputed WWE Champion facing the World Heavyweight Champion. Roman Reigns came out on top and cemented his place at the pinnacle of WWE.
It was a major showdown between the two former members of the Bloodline. A back-and-forth clash of Superman Punches and Spears from both sides. Sami Zayn even found a second wind to absorb the Superman Punches, but Reigns did not relent and finished with a Spear.
After the match, Sami Zayn asked Reigns to acknowledge that he had been pushed to his limits. Reigns hugged Zayn, confirming the epic match they had just delivered, and the two men celebrated the moment together:
“You’re not honorary. You’re an Uso.”

Now, who will be the next to face Roman Reigns? This will be watched on the upcoming RAW broadcasts.
As a reminder, the Crown Jewel championship is an honorary title used to determine WWE’s supreme champion for the current year. It is not a title that is used and defended thereafter. A diamond-studded championship that remains stored in Saudi Arabia’s vaults after the PLE.
