WWE has officially revealed the brackets for the 2026 King and Queen of the Ring tournaments, setting the stage for a month-long battle culminating at Night of Champions on June 27 in Saudi Arabia.
The tournament brackets were announced during the Clash in Italy post-show, with the winners of both tournaments earning championship opportunities at SummerSlam. The men’s tournament begins on Raw with a Fatal Four-Way featuring Penta, Oba Femi, Solo Sikoa, and Carmelo Hayes. The winner will advance to face the survivor of another four-way contest involving Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio, Bron Breakker, Trick Williams, and Damian Priest.
On the opposite side of the bracket, Seth Rollins will meet Je’Von Evans, Tama Tonga, and Ricky Saints in a Fatal Four-Way, while Jey Uso, LA Knight, Royce Keys, and Finn Balor will battle for the remaining semifinal spot.
The women’s tournament features a star-studded field led by Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan, who will face Becky Lynch, Alexa Bliss, and Chelsea Green in the opening round. The winner will advance to meet whoever emerges from the Fatal Four-Way between Sol Ruca, Lyra Valkyria, Charlotte Flair, and Jade Cargill.
The other side of the bracket will see Roxanne Perez, Iyo Sky, Giulia, and Lash Legend compete for a semifinal berth, while Bayley faces Raquel Rodriguez, Jacy Jayne, and Kiana James in the final opening-round match.
Who Won Last Year’s WWE King & Queen Of The Ring Tournaments?
Last year’s tournament winners were Cody Rhodes and Jade Cargill. Rhodes went on to defeat John Cena for the WWE Championship at SummerSlam, while Cargill later captured championship gold after initially falling short in her first title opportunity.
With title shots at SummerSlam on the line, WWE’s top stars now turn their attention to one of the company’s most prestigious annual tournaments.
