King of the Ring Finals: Jey Uso vs Oba Femi

The two men in the King of the Rings final have their eyes on gold. Jey Uso, backed by The Bloodline, has been on a tear since entering the King of the Ring tournament. He has one more mountain to climb before he gets another title shot and that is Oba Femi. “The Ruler” was back to his winning ways after Brock Lesnar took a victory over him at the Clash in Italy. Femi certainly has that loss in the back of his mind.
Prediction: Jey Uso wins the match. Brock Lesnar interferes and takes out Oba Femi.

Queen of the Ring Finals: Iyo Sky vs. Liv Morgan

Liv Morgan has made two things clear in connection with the Queen of the Rings finale. She has vowed to become a double champion and that Iyo Sky has never beaten her one-on-one. Morgan has made it all the way to the Queen of the Rings finale with The Judgment Day by her side. Sky has had to go through it alone to get a shot at glory back. The top two female wrestlers on the main roster meet for a shot at Rhea Ripley’s title. If Sky wins, she can challenge Morgan again or go after Ripley. Who wins is anyone’s guess.
Prediction: Iyo Sky will be the Queen of the Ring.

Trick Williams (c) vs. Ricky Saints for the United States Championship

Trick Williams has found massive success since making his SmackDown debut, winning the United States Championship over Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 42. After dispatching Zayn, a new challenger to his title has emerged. Ricky Saints defeated Carmelo Hayes to become the new #1 contender. The Saints have been a thorn in Williams’ side – as evidenced by the final “Friday Night SmackDown” before Night of Champions. However, Williams has proven to be dominant. And he will likely continue to do so on Saturday.
Prediction: Trick Williams retains the US title

Tiffany Stratton (c) vs. Jade Cargill for the Women’s United States Championship

The bitter feud between US Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill comes to a head at Night of Champions. Stratton has found herself with strange bedfellows in Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss to counter Cargill’s alliance with Michin and B-Fab. Stratton will have to keep her cool if she doesn’t get the same help during her fight against Cargill. There will certainly be some outside interference, but if it stays outside, Stratton could leave Riyadh with his title.
Prediction: Tiffany Stratton retains the women’s US title.

Bron Breaker vs. Seth Rollins in a steel cage match

Will this be the official end to Seth Rollins’ feud with Bron Breaker and The Vision? Even after Rollins defeated Breaker at Backlash, the two have still been at it. Breaker returned at WrestleMania 42 to cost Rollins his match against Gunther, restarting the rivalry. Now the two must fight inside a steel cage. The fight is expected to be brutal with a lot of animosity between the two competitors.
Prediction: Bron Breaker gets one back from Seth Rollins.
Wild card: Bronson Reed returns.

It will be the match everyone is waiting for. Cody Rhodes, who booked this match, defends the Undisputed WWE Championship against Gunther and Sami Zayn. Fed up with the feud between Gunther and Zayn, Rhodes asked to put the two in his rearview when he spoke with SmackDown GM Nick Aldis. It could end up being a “be careful what you wish for”. Gunther tries to get back on top of the WWE, while Zayn hopes to win his first world championship.
Prediction: Cody Rhodes retains the Undisputed WWE Championship
