Final Picks for Roman Reigns vs. Sami Zayn and Entire WWE Crown Jewel 2026 Match Card

WWE Crown Jewel 2026 will feature four matches, including a blockbuster showdown between Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn.

Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton will meet in a Last Man Standing match, while Liv Morgan, Chelsea Green, and two tag teams will also compete for championship gold.

Here's the full match card, along with my predicted winners in italics:

2026 WWE Men's Crown Jewel Championship: Roman Reigns vs. Sami Zayn

2026 WWE Women's Crown Jewel Championship: Liv Morgan vs. Chelsea Green

Last Man Standing match: Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton

World Tag Team Championship: Bron Breakker and Austin Theory vs. Penta and Je'Von Evans

Roman Reigns vs. Sami Zayn

Zayn has a chance to score the biggest victory of his career in front of a Crown Jewel crowd firmly in his corner, but taking down Reigns is an entirely different challenge.

The former Honorary Uce knows Reigns better than almost anyone, and their history should add another interesting layer to what is already one of the more compelling matchups on the card.

Unfortunately for Zayn, WWE has never been particularly subtle about protecting its biggest attractions, and there's little reason to believe the company is ready to change that philosophy.

Reigns should ultimately have too much for Zayn, picking up another high-profile victory while leaving his former ally searching for an answer.

Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton

Rhodes and Orton have years of history between them, and their latest confrontation should give both men plenty of opportunities to get extremely violent.

The Last Man Standing stipulation is a fitting addition to this rivalry, especially considering how personal things have become between the former mentor and protégé.

Orton has the experience and ruthlessness to make life miserable for Rhodes, but WWE has invested far too much in The American Nightmare to have him come up short here.

Expect Rhodes to survive another brutal encounter and put The Viper down for the count.

Liv Morgan vs. Chelsea Green

Green has spent most of her WWE run proving she's one of the most entertaining performers on the roster, even when the creative direction seems determined to turn her into a walking punchline.

Morgan is an accomplished competitor who knows what it takes to win on a big stage, but Green deserves recognition as more than a comedic side character.

A victory at Crown Jewel would be a meaningful step forward for Green and give WWE a chance to do something different with its championship picture.

I'm taking Green to pull off the upset, capture the Women's Crown Jewel Championship, and remind everyone that she's capable of being much more than a joke.

Bron Breakker and Austin Theory vs. Penta and Je'Von Evans

Breakker and Theory have been a strong combination for The Vision, but this feels like the right time for a change. Penta and Evans bring an exciting mix of experience, athleticism, and high-flying ability that could make them an entertaining championship team.

Breakker also seems destined for bigger opportunities as a singles competitor, making this a good opportunity to move the tag titles elsewhere without hurting his momentum. Theory can take the fall while Breakker moves on to bigger things. Look for a title change and a new championship team.
