WWE
is moving fast-paced towards its next major Premium Live Event, Night of Champions, taking place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. One of the prime highlights at the event will be the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments.
For weeks, the competition was going on in full force. As the dust settled on this week's edition of Monday Night RAW, the finals were set in stone to crown the new King and Queen of the Ring this year.
WWE Night of Champions will see the coronation of the King and Queen of the Ring
The first semi-finals of the King and Queen of the Ring culminated at last week's edition of Friday Night SmackDown. On the women's side, it was Asuka who outlasted Alexa Bliss to advance in the tournament. On the other hand, Randy Orton defeated Sami Zayn to once again secure a spot in the finals of the King of the Ring tournament, much like he did last year.
On this week's episode of RAW, the second semi-finals of the tournaments took place. In the first hour of the show, it was Jade Cargill who competed against Roxanne Perez. The NXT standout displayed a valiant effort against the much bigger Cargill, and both women delivered a spectacular showdown. As the dust settled, The Storm planted Perez with a thunderous Jaded to pick up the win.
As the show progressed, it was time for the blockbuster match between close allies, Main Event Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes, in their semi-final bout.

The duo threw their friendship out the window and hit each other with every heavy move in their arsenal. In the closing moments of the bout, Rhodes countered a Uso Splash and followed it up with a Cody Cutter and Cross Rhodes to seal the victory and head to the finals.
With both of those matches coming to their conclusion, both finals of the tournament were set. Jade Cargill will battle Asuka, while the former teacher protege duo, Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes, will compete against each other for the first time since Rhodes came back to WWE. So it remains to be seen who will reign supreme as King and Queen of the Ring at Night of Champions.

'Pleading for forgiveness':Blake Lively refuses to let Taylor Swift cut her off as Travis Kelce quietly sides with the his lady love
Blake Lively's longstanding friendship with Taylor Swift is said to be over (Getty Images) Blake Lively is fighting to save more than her reputation—she's desperately trying to hold on to her friendship with Taylor Swift , even as the fallout from her legal battle with It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni sends shockwaves through her personal life. With Taylor's boyfriend Travis Kelce now quietly distancing himself from Blake's husband Ryan Reynolds , insiders say the divide is becoming increasingly public—and painful. Blake Lively fights to win back Taylor Swift as Travis Kelce cuts ties with Ryan Reynolds Despite Swift's decision to step back, Blake Lively is reportedly doing everything she can to repair the rift. 'Blake is devastated that things have gotten to this place, and she's refusing to accept that their friendship is over. She's been texting and calling Taylor, pleading for forgiveness,' a source close to the actress revealed. — PerezHilton (@PerezHilton) The rift widened after a leaked message from Blake to Baldoni stirred controversy. 'If you ever get round to watching Game of Thrones , you'll appreciate that I'm Khaleesi. And like her, I happen to have a few dragons,' Blake reportedly wrote—an eyebrow-raising statement that some believe referenced Swift as one of her symbolic 'dragons.' But sources close to Taylor strongly deny she'd ever see herself in such a role. 'She would never think of herself as Blake's dragon, or protector,' one insider emphasized. And the fallout is now reaching beyond the women themselves. Travis Kelce, who has become a central figure in Taylor's highly public personal life, has subtly made his stance known by unfollowing Ryan Reynolds on Instagram. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dukung Orang Terkasih Menghadapi Limfoma: Mulai Di Sini Limfoma Klik Di Sini Undo It's a quiet move—but one fans haven't missed—and suggests Kelce is standing in solidarity with Swift as she distances herself from the drama. Blake, meanwhile, isn't backing down. Determined to make things right, she's reportedly enlisted mutual friends like Hugh Jackman and Salma Hayek to help rebuild the bridge to Taylor. Jackman, a longtime friend of Ryan, is said to be acting as a mediator behind the scenes. But Blake may be losing more than just Taylor. Insiders say that members of Swift's inner circle, including Gigi Hadid , Selena Gomez , and Cara Delevingne, have already backed away from the actress. 'They acted like they were her friends, but the moment Taylor was upset, they showed their true colours,' the source added. With Blake continuing to plead her case and Travis Kelce quietly backing Taylor, the odds of a full reconciliation remain uncertain. Still, Blake isn't giving up. 'She loves Taylor and misses her terribly, and she'll do anything to fix this,' says the source. Whether Swift—and Kelce—are willing to open that door again remains to be seen.
