Gunther stipulation reveal, King & Queen of the Ring matches set for next WWE SmackDown
New matches are set for next week’s SmackDown.
Next Friday’s show in Providence, Rhode Island will see Gunther announce his stipulation for his upcoming WWE title rematch against Gunther. Meanwhile, two more King & Queen of the Ring matches will take place.
After a confrontation with Cody Rhodes and Sami Zayn at the start of Friday’s show, Gunther told Nick Aldis he was going to file lawsuits until he got what he wanted. Later, Aldis told Cody that on next week’s show, Gunther would name the stipulation for his upcoming title rematch. Cody said that was fine, but he wanted to defend the title as soon as possible, naming the June 19 show in Kansas City as the location.
Meanwhile, a match from both the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments will take place. For the King of the Ring, Finn Balor will take on Jey Uso, LA Knight, and Royce Keys. The Queen of the Ring bout will see Sol Ruca face Lyra Valkyria, Charlotte Flair, and Jade Cargill.
