The finalists for the 2024 WWE Queen of the Ring tournament have now been confirmed following SmackDown (May 24).

This week’s Friday Night SmackDown from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia kicked off with the semi-final Queen of the Ring bout between Bianca Belair and Nia Jax.

With Jax getting past Jade Cargill in the quarter-final of the tournament via a controversial DQ win, the question was could she then do the same to Cargill’s tag partner Bianca Belair.

With the already confirmed Queen of the Ring finalist Lyra Valkyria watching on in the front row, Jax and Belair went back and forth with one another – with Belair showcasing incredible feats of strength to the Irresistible Force such as a top rope powerbomb.

However, it was her attempt at delivering a KOD to Jax that proved to be a step too far, as Belair’s left knee buckled leaving the EST vulnerable for Jax to take advantage – which she did, securing the win via The Annihilator and progressing to the final against Valkyria on May 25.
