For the first time in three years, WWE’s King of the Ring tournament returns under a new name, King and Queen of the Ring. It’s the 23rd King of the Ring tournament for male superstars and the second Queen of the Ring tournament for female superstars. The last winners of the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments were Xavier Woods and Zelina Vega.
What is King and Queen of the Ring? It’s a single-elimination tournament where WWE superstars on Raw and SmackDown compete to see which wrestler will be the last person standing. This year, 16 men and 16 women entered the tournament. After a few weeks of competition, it comes down to the finals. Gunther takes on Randy Orton on the men’s side, while Lyra Valkyria faces Nia Jax in the women’s bracket. The winners will be crowned King and Queen of the Ring, and receive a world title shot at SummerSlam in August.
King and Queen of the Ring will start at a special time in the United States. Below is everything you need to know about the Premium Live Event (PLE).
