WWE Night of Champions, held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, at the Kingdom Arena, crowned new King and Queen of the Ring and featured several title defenses.

The event, which reportedly drew over 18,000 attendees, saw Oba Femi and Iyo Sky emerge victorious in their respective tournaments.

Oba Femi secured his place as the 25th King of the Ring by defeating Jey Uso in an eight-minute match.

Femi's victory was described as strong, with Jey Uso maintaining credibility despite the loss.

Following his win, SmackDown General Manager presented Femi with the crown, and Femi declared his transition from "The Ruler" to "The King."

In the Queen of the Ring tournament final, Iyo Sky triumphed over Liv Morgan in a match lasting nearly 15 minutes.

Sky's win was notable for her selling a knee injury, which added suspense to the bout.

After her victory, Sky was presented with the Queen of the Ring crown by SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis and immediately announced her intention to challenge Morgan at SummerSlam.

## Steel Cage Match and Title Defenses

The event also featured a steel cage match where Seth Rollins defeated Bron Breakker in just over 19 minutes.

This was noted as the second steel cage match to take place in Saudi Arabia.

The match was described as entertaining, though the outcome of Breakker's loss raised questions about the direction of his storyline.

Trick Williams, accompanied by Lil Yachty, successfully defended his U.S.

Championship against Ricky Saints in a match that lasted nearly 11 minutes.

The match saw interference from Lil Yachty and Chelsea Green, who played a role in the outcome.

Tiffany Stratton also retained her Women's U.S.

Championship against Jade Cargill in a match that involved multiple external interferences, including B-Fab, Michin, Chelsea Green, and Charlotte Flair, who ultimately assisted Stratton in securing the win.
