WWE will hold a tournament next month as they bring back King and Queen of The Ring.
WWE had planned to bring back the tournament in Saudi Arabia last year, but it was scrapped. WWE chose the Night of Champions theme over the King and Queen of the Ring.
The most recent tournament took place in 2021, when Xavier Woods defeated Finn Balor in the finals to become King of the Ring, and Zelina Vega defeated Doudrop in the Queen’s Crown Tournament.
Dave Meltzer, speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, stated that the tournaments will take place at the May 25th WWE PLE in Saudi Arabia, which has yet to be officially announced.
“By the way, the next pay-per-view is going to be King and Queen of The Ring, which is the Saudi show on May 25. I don’t know if that’s the next one. But the Saudi show, they may have one. I don’t even have that schedule in front of me, but May 25. That’s what that’s going to be.”
