WWE King & Queen of the Ring 2024: Title Matches added to Saudi Arabia PLE

Fresh off an international premium live event outing in France, WWE is prepping things up for King & Queen of the Ring scheduled from Saudi Arabia, later this month. Multiple matches for the event have now been announced for the show.

As announced on Raw, Sami Zayn will defend his Intercontinental Championship in a Triple Threat Match against Chad Gable and Bronson Reed while WWE Women's World Champion Becky Lynch will defend against Liv Morgan in Saudi Arabia.

Last night, Chad Gable vs. Bronson Reed on Raw ended in a DQ after Sami Zayn interfered. Once the match was over, the three of them got into a brawl with Reed standing tall.

Zayn was seeking vengeance for Gable's attack on him which also solidified his heel-turn a couple of weeks ago. Then in a backstage segment on Raw, he agreed to compete and defend his title in a three-way at King & Queen of the Ring 2024.

Both the challengers, Gable and Reed have been vying for the Intercontinental Title for a long time. Gable previously challenged GUNTHER twice during his record-setting run while Reed also took on GUNTHER in October of 2023 and both were unsuccessful.

The Women's Championship bout for King & Queen of the Ring was announced during an interview segment on Raw featuring the champion Becky Lynch who was putting over the young talents of the WWE Women's Division.

Liv Morgan interrupted and reminded her that she's a former Money in the Bank match winner, Women's Champion and Tag Team Champion. She also beat Nia Jax and took out Rhea Ripley but didn't get enough credits for these.

In response, Becky informed her that Morgan would get to face her for the Women's World Title at the Saudi Arabia PLE. Lynch also reminded Morgan that she has done a lot but she has never beaten her.

The 2024 WWE King & Queen of the Ring premium live event is scheduled for the Jeddah Superdome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, May 25. The currently confirmed match card for the show goes as follows:

  • Women's World Championship Match: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Liv Morgan
  • Triple threat match for WWE Intercontinental title: Sami Zayn (c) vs. Bronson Reed and Chad Gable
  • King of the Ring tournament finals
  • Queen of the Ring tournament finals
