John Cena vs AJ Styles went on for 27mins, their longest match. Matches like this are the reason why I love pro wrestling. 9/10.

Thank God Seth won (at least for all the hard work he is putting in all TV shows). John Cena vs AJ Styles was the match of the PPV, it was brilliant and pure fun! Loved it.

WWE Crown Jewel 2025 managed to overcome many of the usual frustrations that plague modern WWE events—yes, it still had the typical five-match structure and far too many ads and promos—but the in-ring product itself was thoroughly enjoyable. Every match felt purposeful, and while the pacing could’ve been tighter, the overall presentation delivered a big-event feel that lived up to its hype. The clear standout was Cena vs. Styles—a true love letter to professional wrestling. It wasn’t just a nostalgia act; it was a perfectly scripted, technically sharp showcase between two veterans who know exactly how to tell a story in the ring. That match alone elevated the entire card, making Crown Jewel 2025 one of WWE’s stronger offerings of the year. Best Match: Cena v Styles Rating: 4/5 – 85% – Would Recommend
