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.
