"Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker defeated Rhodes and Orton after Rollins interfered in the match, delivering a stomp on Orton. That was an interesting end, because it adds another layer of animosity between Rollins and Orton going into the match between Rollins and Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewell. After the match, Rollins went back into the ring to stomp Rhodes but got a Cross Rhodes for his trouble."
"After Crown Jewel, Orton can be a match on "Raw" or "SmackDown" against Rollins, and a future title challenger for Rhodes. Paul Heyman urging Rollins not to go after Rhodes, saying "he's in your head" was a nice touch, as it leaves a lot of room for Rollins to possibly make a similar mistake in judgement in their match at Crown Jewel."
SmackDown in Perth built toward Crown Jewel with Premium Live Event–level matches staged the day before the PLE. Men's U.S. Champion Sami Zayn retained against Aleister Black. Sol Ruca and Zaria defeated Chelsea Green and Alba Fyre. Rey Fenix and Je'Von Evans beat Los Garza. The Vision scored a major victory over Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton, nearly producing a first in WWE history. Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker defeated Rhodes and Orton after Seth Rollins interfered, stomping Orton and creating renewed animosity. Paul Heyman warned Rollins that "he's in your head." Sami Zayn's open challenge furthered feuds involving Carmelo Hayes and The Miz.
