is moving fast-paced towards its next major Premium Live Event, Night of Champions, taking place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. One of the prime highlights at the event will be the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments.
For weeks, the competition was going on in full force. As the dust settled on this week's edition of Monday Night RAW, the finals were set in stone to crown the new King and Queen of the Ring this year.
WWE Night of Champions will see the coronation of the King and Queen of the Ring
The first semi-finals of the King and Queen of the Ring culminated at last week's edition of Friday Night SmackDown. On the women's side, it was Asuka who outlasted Alexa Bliss to advance in the tournament. On the other hand, Randy Orton defeated Sami Zayn to once again secure a spot in the finals of the King of the Ring tournament, much like he did last year.
On this week's episode of RAW, the second semi-finals of the tournaments took place. In the first hour of the show, it was Jade Cargill who competed against Roxanne Perez. The NXT standout displayed a valiant effort against the much bigger Cargill, and both women delivered a spectacular showdown. As the dust settled, The Storm planted Perez with a thunderous Jaded to pick up the win.
As the show progressed, it was time for the blockbuster match between close allies, Main Event Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes, in their semi-final bout.

The duo threw their friendship out the window and hit each other with every heavy move in their arsenal. In the closing moments of the bout, Rhodes countered a Uso Splash and followed it up with a Cody Cutter and Cross Rhodes to seal the victory and head to the finals.
With both of those matches coming to their conclusion, both finals of the tournament were set. Jade Cargill will battle Asuka, while the former teacher protege duo, Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes, will compete against each other for the first time since Rhodes came back to WWE. So it remains to be seen who will reign supreme as King and Queen of the Ring at Night of Champions.
