Get ready for the King and Queen of the Ring finals in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on May 25th! But before then, there’s a change in plans.

Originally, some qualifying matches were supposed to be on TV shows Raw and SmackDown. However, WWE has decided to move these matches to live events instead.

WWE Moves Matches to Live Events

This means fans watching TV won’t see every match. WWE wants to avoid showing too much King and Queen of the Ring content on TV all at once.

There’s another reason for the change. WWE hopes moving these matches to live events will encourage more people to attend. These events will now feature exclusive matches that fans won’t see on TV.

So far, Jey Uso, Gunther, IYO SKY, and Lyra Valkyrie have advanced in the tournament. Fans are waiting to see who will join them from SmackDown.

This is a new strategy for WWE. It will be interesting to see if it helps with attendance and keeps viewers engaged. One thing’s for sure – it adds some excitement for fans who attend live events.
