Cody Rhodes Becomes First-Ever WWE Crown Jewel Champion – Cody Rhodes has made history, capturing the first-ever WWE Crown Jewel Championship in the main event of WWE Crown Jewel 2024. Rhodes, the Undisputed WWE Champion, emerged victorious over WWE World Heavyweight Champion Gunther in a high-stakes clash that kept the Saudi Arabia crowd on edge.
The match concluded in thrilling fashion. As Cody attempted his signature Cody Cutter, Gunther countered by trapping him in a sleeper hold. Cody, however, used his ring awareness and shifted his weight, rolling Gunther’s shoulders to the mat to secure the pinfall victory. This dramatic finish underscored both competitors’ resilience and skill.
Following the bout, a moment of mutual respect unfolded, as Cody and Gunther exchanged a handshake. WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H then entered the ring to formally present Cody with the WWE Crown Jewel Men’s Championship.
In a special moment to cap off the event, Liv Morgan, who earlier captured the Crown Jewel title for the women’s division, joined Cody in the ring to celebrate, sharing the spotlight as the show concluded.
The WWE Crown Jewel Championship, introduced at WWE Bad Blood, features an annual title vs. title match, where the WWE World Champion and Undisputed WWE Champion compete for a prestigious “Crown Jewel Ring,” symbolizing the victor’s achievement in this elite contest.
