What they're saying
"

The final match of the 2026 King of the Ring tournament kicked off WWE Night of Champions today (June 27) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Would it be “The Ruler” Oba Femi or “Main Event” Jey Uso who wins the crown and earns a world title match at SummerSlam? The live fans were ridiculously loud for both performers as they made their way to the ring, which included Uso running back his entrance. However, those entrances may have been just as long or longer than the match itself. Uso tried his damnedest to put Oba down with his wide variety of moves like superkicks, Uso splashes, spears, and a sleeper hold, but Femi withstood it all. It was just a matter of time until get got back to his feet and destroyed Uso with the Fall from Grace powerbomb to win the match in about eight minutes. Oba’s WWE matches never go 10 minutes long, and the King of the Ring final was no exception. King Femi cut a promo on Uso after the match, but did not reveal whether he will pursue World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns or WWE Champion Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam. He was still convincing as hell as he declared that you just can’t beat WWE’s new King of the Ring. We’ll find out at SummerSlam if one of the champs can find a way to conquer The Ruler.
