Champions collide at WWE Crown Jewel

This weekend is the WWE's annual 'Crown Jewel' premium live event which pits the respective World Champions from the RAW and SmackDown rosters against one another. After Perth hosted last year's edition which featured John Cena's final international pay per view appearance, first time Women's Champion Chelsea Green knows expectations are high for her bout with Liv Morgan; a four time World title holder.

"This is my time to prove myself. This is my time to prove that I deserve this, that I belong, that the fans fighting for me was for this. So I do feel like there's a chip on my shoulder and I need to do it on my own." said Green on SEN's Stumps and Bumps.

Green won the WWE Women's Title at 'SummerSlam' in August, defeating four other superstars in a ladder match in front of 33,086 fans in Minneapolis and credits crowd support for her rise in the company.

"We're like really part of these crazy fandoms and we've got the signs and we're dressing up and I think that's what always made wrestling special. That's what fuels our fire is knowing that when we put something out for you that we've worked so hard on, you're gonna enjoy it whether it's watching it or whether it's showing up to the event, like you're going to enjoy it with your whole heart."

Perth will once again be hosting another WWE premium live event this December with 'Wrestlepalooza' headlining a three day takeover at RAC Arena with a RAW and SmackDown broadcast also at the venue.

"I lived in Australia, so I know that you guys go crazy for your shows, for your entertainers, for your sports, all that stuff. But it still never ceases to amaze me because we are so far away. I mean, we're a world apart, right? There's a reason that we have now continued to come back because the stadiums and the arenas fill up and it's the best energy."
