TKO Group is in early discussions about potentially transforming WWE’s annual Crown Jewel premium live event into a multi-sport spectacle combining WWE, UFC, and boxing under one roof.
Billi Bhatti revealed this information on The Wrestling Informer podcast, noting the possible changes to the Saudi Arabia show format.
It’s possible this event could replace WWE’s traditional Crown Jewel, transforming it into a combined WWE, UFC, and boxing spectacle—if they can get everything ready by November.
One complication in the planning stems from WWE having Royal Rumble 2026 already scheduled for Saudi Arabia in January. This timing has prompted internal discussions about rebranding Crown Jewel into this all-sports event.
The proposed supercard would feature a WWE Championship match and two additional wrestling matches. The event would also include two UFC fights with one being a title bout, plus a major boxing championship fight and a celebrity boxing match.
Names being discussed for the event include Logan Paul and Conor McGregor, though McGregor’s role remains undefined between UFC or boxing participation.
Expect major star power—this won’t be a card featuring The Street Profits vs. Johnny Gargano and Ciampa. If this happens, it’s going to showcase the best of the best. The Rock is highly likely to appear, and if it takes place this year, John Cena could also be involved.
On the boxing side, Canelo Álvarez is mentioned due to his connection with Turki Alalshikh, the Saudi official pushing for high-profile sports events in the Kingdom.
The financial resources behind this potential supercard could make it one of the biggest combat sports events in history if Crown Jewel is replaced by this combined format.
