May 2, 2025
WWE, part of TKO Group Holdings, in partnership with the Western Australian Government through Tourism Western Australia, has announced that Crown Jewel: Perth will headline a WWE weekend takeover in Perth this October. Crown Jewel: Perth will take place at RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia, on October 11th. The venue will also host Friday Night SmackDown on October 10th and Monday Night Raw on October 13th.
As previously announced at WrestleMania 41, Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena will travel to Perth in October to make his final WWE appearance in Australia as part of his 2025 Farewell Tour.
Crown Jewel: Perth will pit Champion against Champion in both the men’s and the women’s divisions, with last year’s event seeing Cody Rhodes and Liv Morgan triumph to become the inaugural Crown Jewel Champions.
The return of WWE to Australia follows the successful Elimination Chamber: Perth event from Optus Stadium in February 2024 which set records at the time as the most-attended and highest-viewed Elimination Chamber event in company history.
Crown Jewel: Perth, Friday Night SmackDown and Monday Night Raw will broadcast live in Australia and in most markets around the world on Netflix. In the US, Crown Jewel: Perth will stream on Peacock and Friday Night SmackDown will air on USA Network. Information regarding general ticket onsale and further event updates will be available in the coming weeks.
