Two more WWE stars have advanced in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments on SmackDown today.
Today’s SmackDown airing live early from Bologna played host to Bayley vs Jacy Jayne vs Kiana James vs Raquel Rodriguez, and Bron Breakker vs Damian Priest vs Dominik Mysterio vs Trick Williams in tournament quarter-final rounds.
First up, Rodriguez picked up the win in the women’s match, so she advances to face the winner of the four-way that took place on Raw this past Monday, IYO SKY.
After the match, Kiana James and Giulia split up and broke out into a brawl with each other after some miscommunication during the match since Giulia was at ringside.
We’ll update this story later with the winner of the men’s four-way when that match takes place.
Who Will Win The King & Queen Of The Ring Tournaments?
Over the course of the past week, we’ve very quickly gone from 16 possible winners in each of the King & Queen of the Ring tournaments to now only having 10 in each.
The semi-finalists so far for the men are Oba Femi and (to be determined), while the women so far has IYO SKY and Raquel Rodriguez in the semis – with both of those facing each other.
Of the men who have yet to have their quarter-final four-ways, the most likely to advance would seem to be Seth Rollins from the first four-way, and either Jey Uso or LA Knight from the second.
As for the women, things seem a lot more open and really any of the eight women could go through.
SKY would really be the ideal choice to win the tournament overall this year and then win the title from Liv Morgan at SummerSlam, but we’ll see if that’s in WWE’s plans.
That could set up a RHIYO match for this year’s Crown Jewel Championship with SKY as Women’s World Champion and Rhea Ripley as WWE Women’s Champion.
