The first match has been announced for the upcoming WWE Crown Jewel PPV.
During Monday’s episode of WWE RAW, which marked the season premiere of the show, WWE had Hall of Famers Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan appear on Miz TV.
They cut promos on each other and eventually teased one last showdown. Obviously, another match between the two stars wasn’t going to happen.
Instead, WWE had different plans for the two legendary pro wrestlers. This is where it was announced that Hogan and Flair would have teams that battle it out in a 5-on-5 tag team match at Crown Jewel.
This led to the announcement of WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins serving as the captain of Team Hogan while Randy Orton would serve as the captain of Team Flair.
Once a match was teased between Orton and Rollins, more stars to this upcoming contest were revealed. Baron Corbin came out to attack Rollins only to have Rusev come out to make the save for Rollins.
