King of the Ring Final: Jey Uso vs. Oba Femi

Both men in the King of the Ring finale have their eyes on gold. Jey Uso, with support from The Bloodline, has been on a tear since competing in the King of the Ring tournament. He still has one mountain left to climb before he gets another title shot and that is Oba Femi. “The Ruler” was back on the winning path after Brock Lesnar scored a victory against him at The Clash in Italy. Femi definitely has this loss on his mind.

Prediction: Jey Uso wins the match. Brock Lesnar tags in and eliminates Oba Femi.

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

Liv Morgan made two things clear ahead of the Queen of the Ring finale. She vowed to become a double champion and Iyo Sky never beat her one-on-one. Morgan reached the finale of Queen of the Ring with The Judgment Day by her side. Sky had to go through this alone to regain a chance at glory. The top two female wrestlers on the main roster will meet for a chance to win the title from Rhea Ripley. If Sky wins, she could challenge Morgan again or go after Ripley. Who wins is anyone’s guess.

Prediction: Iyo Sky becomes queen of the ring.

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

Trick Williams has enjoyed huge success since he debuted on SmackDown, winning the United States Championship from Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 42. After eliminating Zayn, a new challenger for his title emerged. Ricky Saints defeated Carmelo Hayes to become the new #1 contender. Saints has been a thorn in Williams’ side – as the last “Friday Night SmackDown” before Night of Champions proved. However, Williams proved to be dominant. And he will likely continue this line of action on Saturday.

Prediction: Trick Williams retains US title

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

The bitter feud between American champion Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill comes to a head on Night of Champions. Stratton found herself with strange bedfellows in Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss to counter Cargill’s alliance with Michin and B-Fab. Stratton will need to keep her cool if she doesn’t get the same help in her match against Cargill. There will certainly be outside interference, but if it stays on the outside, Stratton could leave Riyadh with his title.

Prediction: Tiffany Stratton retains the US women’s title.

Bron Breakker vs. Seth Rollins in a steel cage match

Will this be the official end of Seth Rollins’ feud with Bron Breakker and The Vision? Even after Rollins defeated Breakker at Backlash, the two still went at it. Breakker returned at WrestleMania 42 to cost Rollins his match against Gunther, reigniting the rivalry. Now the two will fight in a steel cage. The match promises to be brutal with a lot of animosity between the two competitors.

Prediction: Bron Breakker gets one from Seth Rollins.

Wild card: Bronson Reed returns.

Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Gunther vs. Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Championship

This will be the match that everyone is waiting for. Cody Rhodes, who booked this match, defends the Undisputed WWE Championship against Gunther and Sami Zayn. Rhodes was fed up with the shenanigans between Gunther and Zayn and asked to put the two in his rearview mirror when he spoke to SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis. This could end up being a “be careful what you wish for” situation. Gunther is trying to get back to the top of WWE while Zayn hopes to win his first world title.

Prediction: Cody Rhodes retains the Undisputed WWE Title
