Spectators: approx. 9,900
At the beginning of the show, we see Ua Tiffany Stratton, Jade Cargil, Nia Jax, which will later have a triple threat match around the Women’s Title. We also see Sami Zayn in the hall, which later pronounces an open challenge for his US Championship. Michael Cole and Booker T welcome us in the hall after Corey Graves was put out of action for several weeks by the F5 by Brock Lesnar. Shortly afterwards we get a highlight video from the past wrestlepalooza ppv. Paul Heyman is located in the ring. He asks Orlando what they want to talk about what is not well received by the fans. Do you want to talk about the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. Shortly afterwards, OTC Chants sound. Heyman says he would love to talk about Roman Reigns, but it is disrespectful to talk about injuries – especially after Reigns after Bronson Reed’s attack on a stretcher from Paris was removed. Instead, Heyman asks whether we should rather talk about the man who will become a Main event until the 2030s and 2040s: Bron Breakker. Then Heyman pays attention to the conspiracy theories and rumors around Brock Lesnar. But before he can continue, he is interrupted by Cody Rhodes‘ music.
The undisputed WWE Champion comes to the ring with the loud cheers in Orlando. In the ring, Cody Rhodes takes a microphone and asks if everyone has seen the wrestlepalooza summary. He admits that it was a mistake to describe Paul Heyman as a “henchman” last week. Rhodes calls Heyman the smartest man he knows and asks the crucial question of whether he can tell him more about Brock Lesnar. He shows a statue of Wrestlepalooza on which Heyman Lesnar announces in front of the match. Rhodes says that Heyman’s facial expression does not look like a “once-and-not” recording last Saturday. Then he asks Heyman who he is dealing with. With the Oracle, the Wiseman or the Advocate? Heyman replies that Rhodes is talking to the Goat, and pays respect for him to face Brock Lesnar. He says that everyone is in danger when Lesnar is nearby. Lesnar is not there today, but the bad news for Rhodes: others are because Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed appear. While Breakker and Reed face the Undisputed Champion, Rhodes tries to give them advice and asks: Who is Paul Heyman really loyal? He admits not to know exactly, but one thing is certain: it is probably not the two of them. Rhodes wants to attack them, but the number ratio speaks against him until Randy Orton hurries to rescue. Orton attacks Breakker and Reed, Reed is missing an RKO while Rhodes Breakker carries out of the ring with a clothesline.
In the Gorilla position, Cathy Kelley is with the Street Profits. You will get another chance of the Tag Team Championship if you win the No.1 Contender Match, which starts right away. Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins emphasize that possible tensions between them are insignificant compared to their joint mission to regain WWE Tag Team Championship.

Bliss tells the two that they have to prove themselves first and asks them to take part in the back. After the NXT duo has gone, Flair is delighted with how Bliss Zaria and Ruca has proven.
A preview of Crown Jewel is shown in which the upcoming matches are highlighted, including Cody Rhodes vs. Seth Rollins for the title of Men’s Crown Jewel Champion and John Cena vs. AJ Styles.
In the hall we hear the music of Drew Mcintyre and this comes to the ring, visibly with a leg injury. Mcintyre says that Orlando has a special place in his heart because he celebrated his WWE comeback here and won his second WWE title, in front of a wall of screens. He talks about the fact that he should actually be WWE champion now, but becomes angry when he talks about the referee who has interfered in wrestlepalooza. Mcintyre claims that the referee was paid by Cody Rhodes when Nick Aldis interrupts him. Aldis says that Mcintyre is looking for too many excuses and that he simply has to recognize that you sometimes win and sometimes lose. When Mcintyre continues to say that the WWE medical team is on Cody Rhodes’ salary list, says Aldis that it is enough for him and leaves the bulk-mood.
Before Mcintyre can continue, he is unexpectedly interrupted by Jacob Fatu, who marches to the ring and faces him directly. Fatu grabs the microphone, tells him that he should stop whining. He accuses Mcintyre of just crying, complaining and blaming others every week. Fatu tells him that he should finally sit down with his wooden leg miner. Mcintyre has enough and suddenly counters with a headbutt. Fatu immediately responds with a super kick in the face, then tears the Scots the stabilization from the foot and passes it out without it before leaving the ring.
Backstage can be seen Tiffany Stratton when Stephanie Vaquer is added and succeeds her potential challenger at Crown Jewel. Just like she did with Jade Cargill.

Backstage is ready Nia Jax for her match. Chelsea Green tries to advertise Nia Jax for the “Secret Hervice”. But she is not lucky. Nia tears the application and continues, just as Stephanie Vaquer. Vaquer lets Jax know that she has an eye on her. Vaquer wishes her good luck, but Jax replies that she can knock her around at any time, but looks forward to being opposed to her in the ring when she defeated her and becomes new WWE WOME’s Crown Jewel Champion.
Damian Priest is confronted by Kit Wilson, who refers to him as an embodiment of toxic masculinity. Wilson becomes a little too pushy when he repeatedly calls toxic, but he joins a few oxygen tanks. Priest turns around and catches up with a Black Mass Kick from Aleister Black. While Priest is on the ground again, Black wishes him a nice birthday before he disappears.
