WWE is bringing back the King of the Ring tournament and they are also holding a version for the women as well. Both tournaments are expected to conclude when WWE flies back to Saudi Arabia for the 2021 Crown Jewel event on October 21st.
During the Mat Men Pro Wrestling Podcast, Andrew Zarian shared WWE’s upcoming calendar. He confirmed the current working dates for the 2021 WWE Draft, and then he also revealed when the upcoming tournaments will take place.
“Queen of the ring and King of the Ring is kicking off on SmackDown for their season premiere. That will continue on, obviously. Culmination is going to Saudi Arabia on 10/21.”
It will be interesting to see who wins the crowns this time around and how WWE will handle having two royal gimmicks. Saudi Arabia’s next event will be a big one, because they will also include a reported Goldberg vs Bobby Lashley match.
