The 2024 Crown Jewel was a professional wrestling event produced by the American company WWE. It was the sixth Crown Jewel and took place on Saturday, November 2, 2024, at the Mohammed Abdo Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as part of Riyadh Season. The event aired via pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming and was held primarily for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown brand divisions, with one match involving wrestlers from WWE's developmental brand NXT. This was the 12th event that WWE held in Saudi Arabia under a 10-year partnership in support of Saudi Vision 2030.
Six matches were contested at the event with a seventh that never officially started and was ruled a no contest. The event was based around the crowning of the inaugural men's and women's Crown Jewel Champions, contested between the respective reigning men's and women's world champions of Raw and SmackDown to determine the "best of the best". In the main event, SmackDown's Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes defeated Raw's World Heavyweight Champion Gunther to win the inaugural WWE Crown Jewel Championship. In other prominent matches, Raw's Women's World Champion Liv Morgan defeated SmackDown's WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax for the inaugural WWE Women's Crown Jewel Championship, LA Knight defeated Andrade and Carmelo Hayes to retain SmackDown's WWE United States Championship, and in the opening bout, The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and Tama Tonga) defeated Roman Reigns and The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso) in a six-man tag team match.
