On tonight’s WWE Raw it was confirmed that two matches in the first round of the King & Queen of the Ring tournaments will be untelevised.
While the Raw brackets for the tournament were announced at WWE Backlash in France on Saturday, it wasn’t actually specified when the matches would occur.
Six of the eight matches will be taking place on tonight’s Raw, but two will actually be at untelevised shows.
Kofi Kingston vs Rey Mysterio in the King of the Ring tournament and Zelina Vega vs Shayna Baszler in the Queen of the Ring tournament will take place at WWE Live Events this weekend, not on TV.
The other matches will take place on Raw tonight.
While the opening match of the first round was meant to be Drew McIntyre versus Finn Balor, instead McIntyre is not medically cleared for competition.
He has been replaced in the bracket by ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso.
Despite McIntyre coming to ringside, Uso scored the win over Balor to advance in the tournament.
