New matches for WWE Crown Jewel

Oct 4, 2021 - by Staff

Bobby Lashley vs. WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg in a No Holds Barred match is now official for WWE Crown Jewel.

The match was made official during tonight’s WWE Draft Night 2 edition of RAW. Goldberg called Lashley out and challenged him to a match at Crown Jewel, and Lashley proposed the stipulation. This will be a rematch from SummerSlam back in late August, which saw then-WWE Champion Lashley retain his title over Goldberg. The storyline behind this rematch is that Goldberg wants payback for what Lashley and MVP did to his son Gage at SummerSlam.

Drew McIntyre vs. WWE Champion Big E is also now official for WWE Crown Jewel.

Tonight’s RAW saw new SmackDown Superstar McIntyre issue a challenge to Big E for the title. They ended up defeating Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode in tag team action, but Big E agreed to put the strap on the line against McIntyre at Crown Jewel.
