WWE Crown Jewel (2022) (Wrestling Review)

A short but action packed match. Expected more here but I guess this match can continue their feud. Really didn’t like the finish here though. I get it keeps Lashley looking good but it was an uneventful and lackluster finish out of no where here and looked awful on camera. 

2 / 5

A decent match that had a cheap finish hurt it some. Bliss playing it super aggressive worked well though and Asuka sold her knee brace well. Changing the titles back so soon is just random though. 

2.5 / 5

I hate that they did the mace spot again here then Drew brushed it off so quickly. This was a cage match that never felt special, the common WWE issue. Some big moves here but outside of one never felt like anything special. Drew winning makes sense since he lost last time but this is a feud I need to be over. Kross I know is getting his push but so far it isn’t doing anything for me. 

2 / 5

 I’m tired of this feud and these matches. Subpar action at best with a build up between the main guys that just never feels like the build up was worth it. Add in Rhea being involved as always. 

1 / 5

A boring big man match. Neither have any charisma in ring and this just dragged on. 

.5 / 5

A good tag team match as expected. Without Sheamus the Brutes lose some appeal with the fans though. Good spots throughout though and Usos winning was expected. 

3.5 / 5

A long match that needed some major trimming. Last man standing matches are rough as it is but this one just dragged on too long. Spots like the golf cart were dumb and lasted too long only to end in a nasty looking missed table botch. I get the finish too as a creative finish that keeps Becky looking good too but visually it looked awful. 

2 / 5

Jake Paul is unexpectedly fantastic in ring and a joy to watch. This was actually a good back and forth match with Reigns looking like Jake could be the one to dethrone him actually. Some big spots and fun moments throughout. The ending got predictable with interferences from Logan Paul, Usos, and Solo. Wonder if we are getting Logan vs Solo at Wrestlemania. Really interested to see if and how they bring Jake Paul back after this one.
