Just hours before Monday Night RAW hits the airwaves, WWE dropped a surprise video featuring RAW General Manager Adam Pearce confirming the lineup for tonight’s King and Queen of the Ring qualifying matches—and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

According to Pearce, fans will witness two major multi-person qualifiers to kick off the tournament road to Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. On the women’s side, it’ll be Liv Morgan vs. Kairi Sane vs. Roxanne Perez vs. Rhea Ripley. On the men’s side, Dominik Mysterio vs. Sami Zayn vs. Bron Breakker vs. Penta El Zero Miedo will determine who advances to the next round.

Pearce kept it simple but effective in the teaser clip, saying the matches were “all about opportunity”—and with a royal crown on the line later this month, every second will count. The winners will move one step closer to the finals set for June 28 at the Night of Champions Premium Live Event.

Meanwhile, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match between Jey Uso and GUNTHER will headline tonight’s show, serving as a rematch of their WrestleMania 41 clash. After failing to dethrone Uso in April, the Ring General is out for redemption.
