For the 2024 Crown Jewel event, IWE introduced the Crown Jewel Championships for both the men and women. The respective championships are awarded to the winner of an annual match between the reigning men's and women's world champions of Raw and SmackDown. Their respective Raw and SmackDown world titles, however, are not defended and instead, the winners are crowned the men's and women's Crown Jewel Champions to determine who is the "best of the best". While the championships are represented by championship belts, the respective winners are instead presented with a Crown Jewel ring (similar to a [[NFL Super Bowl ring|Super Bowl ring]]) as the belts remain on display at the IWE Experience attraction in Riyadh. The inaugural 2024 winners were SmackDown's Undisputed IWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Raw's Women's World Champion Liv Morgan. | For the 2024 Crown Jewel event, IWE introduced the Crown Jewel Championships for both the men and women.

IWE Crown Jewel is a professional wrestling event produced by IWE, an American-based promotion. It is broadcast live and available only through pay-per-view (PPV) and IWE's livestreaming platforms. Established in 2018, the event has been held every year since except in 2020, which was due to the COVID-19 pandemic that year, and it is held in late October—early November. It is IWE's main recurring event that takes place in Saudi Arabia as part of a 10-year partnership in support of Saudi Vision 2030; the inaugural Crown Jewel was the second event in this partnership. The event's name is a reference to it taking place in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, and it is held as part of the Riyadh Season festival.
