Find it interesting that everyone on the poster is a champion except Jade & Bianca though I figure they win the titles this weekend anyway...​

Can’t wait for the finals of the King of the Ring, when one of the finalists is hurt and replaced by Shane McMahon, who wins the whole tournament.

Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn vs. Chad Gable vs. Bronson Reed (Triple Threat Match)​

Sami Zayn will put the Intercontinental Title on the line in a Triple Threat Match against Chad Gable and “Big” Bronson Reed at WWE King and Queen of the Ring.

After Zayn overcame Gable in the final part of a Gauntlet Match to earn the right to challenge Gunther at WrestleMania, Master Gable trained the determined challenger to help him end the longest Intercontinental Title reign in WWE history. In return, Zayn offered Gable a title opportunity. When Sami emerged victorious in Montreal, however, Gable snapped and unleashed a vicious assault on the titleholder.

With animosity increasing between Zayn and Gable, Reed attacked Zayn to set his own claim to the Intercontinental Title. In a subsequent title match between Reed and Zayn, Gable attacked the titleholder. Although Bronson joined the assault, he then took out Gable for getting in the way of his opportunity. When Gable and Reed squared off the following week, Sami attacked them both and sparked another brawl. As a result, all three will battle for the championship

Women’s World Champion Becky Lynch vs. Liv Morgan​

The Man is coming around to collide with the Liv Morgan Revenge Tour! Women’s World Champion Becky Lynch will put her title on the line against
her unhinged challenger at WWE King and Queen of the Ring.

After an injured Rhea Ripley was forced to relinquish her gold due to an injury sustained at the hands of Morgan, Lynch emerged victorious in a Battle Royal to be crowned the new Women’s World Champion. Morgan, who was the final Superstar eliminated by Lynch in the Battle Royal, confronted The Man and suggested that the titleholder owed her an opportunity. Following Liv's subsequent victory over Nia Jax, it was only a matter of time before that match was made.

Will Morgan’s Revenge Tour end with the gold around her waist? Or will Lynch reign supreme against her newfound rival?​

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes vs. United States Champion Logan Paul​

At WWE King and Queen of the Ring, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes will go war against United States Champion Logan Paul in a Champion vs. Champion Match.

After heroically finishing his story by conquering Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, Rhodes immediately solidified his reign with a hard-fought title win over AJ Styles at Backlash France. Upon his return to SmackDown, he didn't have to wait long to see who he would tangle with next, as SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis informed The American Nightmare that he will square off against Paul in Saudi Arabia.

Rhodes stands at the top of the mountain, the standard-bearer to a whole new era of WWE. The Social Media Sensation, however, has claimed that he is the reason for WWE's recent success and that it has nothing to do with Rhodes. Now, titleholder will battle titleholder to see which one of those things is true.

Don’t miss WWE King and Queen of the Ring, streaming live on Saturday, May 25, at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.​

This was NOT what I was expecting but fucking give me it

 

[Cwalker]

I have no doubt Cody and Logan Paul will put on a hell of a match

 

[Bad News Booty]

People are saying it’s 50/50 Logan is double champ going into Cleveland for SS


there ain’t no way

 

[Cwalker]

No way this early into his run is Cody dropping that belt.

Plus then we’re back to having a Champion that never defends.

 

[Dale]

No way either of them drop their belts really so they need to clear up whether it's just champion vs champion or it's for 1 or both belts.

 

[Cwalker]

Apparently it is Winner Take All.

And I completely smell fuckery now

 

[Dale]

I trust they have a plan, but what that plan is I have no fucking idea.

 

[Cwalker]

I feel like they’re gonna have a hell of a match and the Bloodline are going to interfere.

Solo will challenge Cody at whatever the next PLE is.

As far as the US title goes, Logan shouldn’t lose it here. As much as they’ve cooled LA Knight off over the last few months, I still say he’s the guy to take the title off Paul.

 

[Y2Jayne]

Paul's wife is pregnant, he probably asked for some time off.

Really can't see that happening. They gotta build the fuck out of Bloodline 2.0 and have them go over multiple other factions ready for Roman returning, not having them lose to Cody.
