PLANTED!

Much longer than every other match in the tournament, the Queen's Crown Final was a decent contest. Zelina Vega and Doudrop did their best at Crown Jewel, but there was minimal heat in the match.
We did see some impressive moves from Vega, who picked up the win with a Code Red on an opponent much larger than her. This was a great win for her, although the match could have been better in different circumstances.
Grade: C
#8 RK-Bro vs. AJ Styles and Omos for the RAW Tag Team Championship
GOT HIM! 🐍
#WWECrownJewel @RandyOrton https://t.co/GJcLPnrg3Y
Riddle was truly riding high into Crown Jewel as he rode on a camel's back to the ring. That was just the pre-cursor to a successful RAW Tag Team Title defense, as he and Randy Orton defeated AJ Styles and Omos.
This was as solid as one would expect any match involving Orton, Styles, and Riddle to be. The heels had the upper hand for a while, with Omos showing his strength against both members of RK-Bro. However, he was thwarted towards the end as The Viper took control.
Randy Orton hit AJ Styles with a mid-air RKO before Riddle ended things with the Floating Bro. While a match between the two teams can be so much better, there wasn't anything wrong with it.
Grade: B
