Background

Main article: IWE in Saudi Arabia

In early 2018, the American professional wrestling promotion IWE began a 10-year strategic multiplatform partnership with the General Sports Authority in support of Saudi Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia's social and economic reform program. Crown Jewel was then established later that same year as one of the recurring events in this partnership and specifically held in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. Announced on May 23, 2022, the 2022 event will be the fourth event in the Crown Jewel chronology and the eighth event overall for the Saudi Arabian partnership. The event will take place on Saturday, November 5, 2022, at Mrsool Park; this marks the second Crown Jewel to be held at this venue after the inaugural 2018 event, which was held there when it was previously referred to as King Saud University Stadium; the stadium changed its name to Mrsool Park in 2020. The event will air on pay-per-view worldwide and the livestreaming services Peacock in the United States and the IWE Network in international markets and will feature wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brands.

Storylines

The event will include matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
