When it comes to champion vs. champion matches, there’s nothing quite like them. So as WWE gears up for Crown Jewel weekend, it got us thinking — what are the greatest champ vs. champ matches in history?

Hell in a Cell matches are always better when it feels as though the feud is deserving of being settled inside the structure, and that is exactly why Seth Rollins vs. Edge is the best Crown Jewel match in history. Following a personal, violent rivalry, things came to an end inside a hard-hitting, brutal, and mightily fun Hell in a Cell match.

In addition to already being an international attraction, Crown Jewel has shifted its focus in the last two years toward becoming the one night of the year when WWE's top titleholders face off.

WWE are back down under for their annual Crown Jewel Premium Live Event, and this is what the fans in Perth should expect.

The greatest match of AJ Styles’ WWE career came at the 2017 Royal Rumble event, completing his iconic trilogy with John Cena. The two battled over the WWE Championship in a unique match that had the distinction of the action never exiting the ring, with Styles and Cena displaying a masterclass in in-ring psychology.

WWE's latest premium live event, Crown Jewel, takes place Saturday at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia, and is headlined by a pair of champion vs. champion bouts.

WWE Crown Jewel has only been associated with World Wrestling Entertainment for less than a decade, but that doesn’t save it from loads of controversy.

John Cena and AJ Styles produced some of the best matches of the latter stages of Cena’s career in 2016-18, but running it back in 2025 was destined to be a pale echo of those clashes.
