The 2024 King and Queen of the Ring will be the 12th King of the Ring event and will take place on Saturday, May 25, 2024, at the Jeddah Super Dome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The event will host the finals of both the 23rd King of the Ring tournament and the second Queen of the Ring tournament, with the last tournaments for each held in 2021.

 

CHAMPION vs. CHAMPION 

 

At WWE King and Queen of the Ring, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes will go to 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 would 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, the titleholder will battle the titleholder to see which one of those things is true.

 

 

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 ends with the gold around her waist? Or will Lynch reign supreme against her newfound rival?

 

 

INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION SAMI ZAYN vs. CHAD GABLE vs. BRONSON REED 

 

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.
