Rhea Ripley is, again, the only Australian talent set to perform in her home country as WWE heads back down under for WWE Crown Jewel: Perth.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>But is it too late for the other two to make WWE Crown Jewel: Perth? We take a look.<\/div>\n<h3>Bronson Reed<\/h3>\n<div>Bronson Reed was rumoured to face Seth Rollins in a World Heavyweight Championship match at Elimination Chamber: Perth in February 2024. He was also suspected of being one of the competitors in the Elimination Chamber match.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>It seemed a guarantee that the \u201cBig\u201d Aussie star, then full of steam, would get his homecoming moment in Perth. But neither of these things happened. Reed was left off the card.<\/div>\n<div>As fate would have it, Reed\u2019s wife gave birth early, and his not travelling to Australia meant he was present for this.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>But almost two years on, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/05\/why-bronson-reed-could-be-wwes-next-monster-heel\/\" target=\"_self\">Reed has done nothing but grow and develop<\/a>, and is a must for the WWE Crown Jewel: Perth show.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Reed has shed some weight, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/05\/26\/why-bronson-reed-is-the-perfect-third-man-for-rollins\/\" target=\"_self\">aligned himself with Rollins in The Vision,<\/a> and left Roman Reigns squashed on the canvas during their fierce rivalry. A rematch with Reigns after their Clash In Paris bout could be on the cards after the \u201cOTC\u201d returned to WWE Raw last week.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Reigns will open <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/03\/preview-wwe-raw-10-6-25-crown-jewel-go-home-show\/\" target=\"_self\">WWE Raw this week,<\/a> and could call out the Auzilla.<\/div>\n<div>But perhaps Reed could team with tag team partner Bron Breakker to face Reigns and Jimmy, or Jey Uso? A left-field option could be Reed vs. Randy Orton. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/03\/wwe-smackdown-results-10-3-25-live-updates\/\" target=\"_self\">Reed picked up a pinfall victory during tag action against Orton on WWE SmackDown<\/a>. Orton could look for revenge in a one-on-one contest that gives Aussie fans a star-filled match.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Either way, there\u2019s been plenty going on with \u201cBig\u201d Bronson Reed at the moment that a match on the Crown Jewel: Perth show would make perfect sense.<\/div>\n<h3>Grayson Waller Effect<\/h3>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Grayson Waller could be set to miss out on a match in Australia again. Waller has recently aligned himself with The New Day and campaigned for the Mexican Destroyer to be banned. Both Waller and Xavier Woods have suffered injuries after Penta hit them with the move.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Waller has struggled to gain backing for his petition in the US. But in Australia, he\u2019ll probably need to tear down a few forests to prepare for all the signatures. Waller vs. Penta is a match that has to happen soon.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>It is unlikely that it will make the match card for Crown Jewel: Perth. However, WWE Raw also takes place in Perth. This could offer WWE the chance to reward an always entertaining and charismatic Waller with a big bout in his home country.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h3>Rhea Ripley<\/h3>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ripley closed the show last time WWE was in Australia. This time, she will be in a big tag team bout that puts together some of the biggest stars on the women\u2019s roster.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ripley teams with IYO SKY to take on Asuka and Kairi Sane, who recently turned their back on their fellow Japanese star.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3><strong><b>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/b><\/strong><\/h3>\n<section class=\"mb-12\">\n<div class=\"max-w-4xl mx-auto\"><em><i>Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><em><u><i>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/u><\/em><\/a><em><i> for more on WWE and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
