Updated Crown Jewel 2023 match card after WWE RAW: Cody Rhodes added despite bad injury (October 23)

Here’s your first look at the updated Crown Jewel 2023 match card after WWE RAW this week. Cody Rhodes has finally punched his ticket to the upcoming Premium Live Event in Saudi Arabia against another top star.

The American Nightmare had a confrontation with The Judgment Day a week after he and Jey Uso lost the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship to Finn Balor and Damian Priest. Rhodes told Priest to give the crowd a preview of their encounter at Crown Jewel.

The top babyface soon found the odds stacked against him as JD McDonagh arrived to help Balor and Priest take down Rhodes. The Irish Ace held Cody Rhodes in position for Priest to injure his ankle with a chair shot. The American Nightmare was helped to the back by Jey Uso.

Rhodes showed up with his injury to help make the save for Jey in the show’s main event. The American Nightmare took out Finn Balor and proceeded to attack Priest inside the ring. He tried to injure Priest’s ankle, but Balor dragged his friend out of the ring just in time.

Below is the updated Crown Jewel 2023 match card as of October 23, Monday.

• Seth Rollins (c) vs. Drew McIntyre – Singles match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
• Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Nia Jax vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Shayna Baszler vs. Zoey Stark – Fatal 5-Way Match for the WWE Women’s World Championship
