Night of Champions replaces King and Queen of the Ring event in Saudi

The King and Queen of the Ring premium live event from Saudi Arabia has been changed to Night of Champions.

Originally announced on March 7, the tournament was supposed to make its return in Jeddah during Memorial Day weekend. The plan was the hold the tournaments on that night as a single event rather than just the finals as they did in 2021.

But as always, things change, and WWE announced yesterday that Night of Champions will be taking place instead. WWE has not used the Night of Champions name since 2015, with the last show headlined by Seth Rollins vs Sting for the WWE title.

Roman Reigns will be celebrating 1,000 days as champion around that time as well which maybe played a part in changing the title of the event.
