5 Best Moments On WWE Crown Jewel 2021 (And 5 Worst)
8. Best - A King And Queen And WWE NOT Being Mean?!
Xavier Woods really, really wanted to be King Of The Ring and Zelina Vega has been treated like sh*t by WWE for most of the last 12 months. In two crownings, the company proved itself to not be entirely disgusting at letting people have a nice day at work - even if the location of their office was perhaps the most contentious in the world.
Woods' crowning in particular was the sort of moment that transcended typical WWE cynicism. He held the camera by force as he sat on a throne he'd ostensibly pined for since childhood. Comically b*llocking the production staff not to cut away so he could say his piece, he couldn't have looked happier in his job. Vega the same - her crowning felt like the proper restart to her time as a WWE performer rather than the wretched record of losses she built up on the way back in.
Let's not be naive - it's wholly possible nothing will come of either of these runs. But it was nice to see WWE give both of them such a strong start.
