After a jaw-dropping WrestleMania set down from the city of Philadelphia, World Wrestling Entertainment is gearing up to crown a new King & Queen from Saudi Arabia. The Live Event was originally supposed to take place in May 2023. But the plan had to be nixed and Night of Champions took its place. Finally, this year, WWE is on the verge of bringing back the tournament-based event. This will be the first King of the Ring event to air on traditional PPV since 2002. And here’s the date and venue to get you buckled up.
On a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer reported that the event will go on air on May 25 from an unspecified venue in the land of Saudi Arabia. Tonight, WWE officially reaffirmed the news on their Twitter handle.
We saw Xavier Woods get away with the King of the Ring title and Zelina Vega clinch the Queen’s Crown back in 2021. With a lot of contenders for this year’s King and Queen honor, the game is sure to be fierce.
