How to watch the WWE Crown Jewel 2025 Australia Preshow Live
If you’re in Australia (or anywhere around the world) and want to catch the preshow for WWE Crown Jewel 2025 live, here’s your complete guide. Here, we’ll focus on how to watch the preshow broadcast only.
How to watch the Crown Jewel Preshow live via Netflix in Australia
Because WWE’s global streaming rights have shifted, Netflix is the primary platform for live airing of WWE Premium Live Event content (including the preshow) in Australia and many other international markets.
- Ensure you have a Netflix subscription in Australia.
- When the preshow begins, Netflix will stream it live as part of the Crown Jewel event feed.
- No separate “preshow-only” channel or add-on is needed; it is bundled with the full event coverage on Netflix.
- Check your Netflix app or browser ahead of time to ensure it’s updated and ready for live streaming.
How to stream the Crown Jewel preshow in Australia via ESPN / local partners
Though Netflix is the dominant platform internationally, there are subtleties depending on regional rights platforms:
- In the U.S., WWE Crown Jewel content (including preshow) is handled via ESPN streaming services.
- In Australia, your path for the preshow will still primarily be Netflix. WWE’s official “How to Watch” guidance confirms that Netflix will carry WWE Premium Live Events in most international territories beyond the U.S.
If, for your region, there is a local broadcast or cable partner (for instance a sports channel or Foxtel bundle), you might check with that provider to see if they include the preshow feed. However, for Crown Jewel 2025 in Australia, Netflix remains the assured route.
How to prepare for the preshow live stream (Australia)
To make sure you don’t miss the preshow:
- Confirm the start time – The preshow usually begins 30 to 60 minutes before the main card. Double-check WWE’s schedule for that detail.
- Log in early – Open Netflix about 10-15 minutes before the preshow begins and search for “Crown Jewel 2025.” The live stream placeholder should appear.
- Test your internet connection – Ensure sufficient speed and stability (e.g., 5–10 Mbps or more) for high-definition live streaming.
- Device readiness – Use a compatible device (smart TV, streaming stick, tablet, laptop). Make sure the Netflix app is up to date.
- Avoid region issues – Since Netflix is locally available in Australia, region locks shouldn’t be a problem. Just ensure your subscription is valid in your location.
What to expect from the Crown Jewel preshow broadcast
The preshow typically includes:
- Match preview segments
- Interviews with WWE Superstars
- Commentary and hype packages
- Panel introductions and backstage scenes
These features set the tone for the main card and tend to kick off well before the main matches begin.
Because the preshow is integrated into the live event feed on Netflix, once Netflix starts streaming Crown Jewel 2025, the preshow will automatically be part of that feed, so no extra switching or channel changes required.
