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.

[edit] Crown Jewel Championships
Established in 2024, the IWE Crown Jewel Championships are the prize of an annual match between the reigning men's and women's world champions of IWE's Raw and SmackDown brands. The 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 better champion. While the championships are represented by championship belts, the respective winners are instead given a Crown Jewel ring (similar to a Super Bowl ring) as the belts remain on display at the IWE Experience attraction in Riyadh—the winners get to celebrate with the belts and do media with them following the event before the belts are returned to Riyadh. The inaugural winners were SmackDown's Undisputed IWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Raw's Women's World Champion Liv Morgan. The 2025 winners were both of Raw's world champions, World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and Women's World Champion Stephanie Vaquer.
