WWE King and Queen of the Ring 2024: Date, Start Time, How to Watch, Full Card, Betting Odds

WWE King and Queen of the Ring goes down on Saturday, May 25th.

WWE is bringing back one of its most historic tournaments. Following WWE Backlash earlier this month, WWE commenced the King of the Ring and Queen of the Ring brackets, selecting 16 superstars for each. WWE Monday Night Raw's sides of the tournaments saw Gunther and Lyra Valkyria run through the competition, as both of them have solidified spots in the finals. WWE SmackDown's sides will be finalized just one day before the premium live event. Elsewhere on the card, WWE is set to host three title matches, including an unprecedented champion vs. champion main event with a twist.

WWE Champion Cody Rhodes's next challenger is WWE United States Champion Logan Paul. This announcement initially had shades of WWE SummerSlam 2015 when then-US Champion John Cena battled then-WWE Champion Seth Rollins in a bout with all the gold on the line. Paul executed a bait and switch on Rhodes, revealing that he had a specially-made contract to ensure that their WWE King and Queen of the Ring contest would only have the WWE Title being defended.
