WWE, in partnership with the Western Australian Government through Tourism Western Australia, today announced that Crown Jewel: Perth will headline a WWE weekend takeover in Perth this October. Crown Jewel: Perth will take place at RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia, on Saturday, October 11, 2025. The venue will also host Friday Night SmackDown on Friday, October 10, and Monday Night Raw on Monday, October 13.

This will be the first time ever that weekly WWE shows of Monday Night Raw & Friday Night Smackdown will be live and in living colour in Australia, but this isnt the only ground breaking announcement.
Heading up the massive weekend of wrestling is Crown Jewel: Perth - will pit Champion against Champion in both the men’s and the women’s divisions, with last year’s event seeing Cody Rhodes and Liv Morgan triumph to become the inaugural Crown Jewel Champions.

With John Cena already announced to be heading down under as part of his final year, it's to be expected that Aussie powerhouse's Rhea "Bloody" Ripley & Grayson Waller to be present at the event as their reaction in their home country was purely electric during Elimination Chamber: Perth in February 2024.
With the stipulation of Champion VS Champion - Australian can expect all 4 WWE/World Champions to be present at the event.

With the massive success of Elimination Chamber: Perth last year, it's expected that all 3 shows will sell out with tickets being in high demand - Fans interested in attending can register for exclusive presale opportunities at WWE Australia 2025.
