The show was ready to go, but then the creation of the World Heavyweight Title made the WWE drop the idea completely.
Would you still have liked the King and Queen of the Ring to happen sometime in 2023?
If JD wanted another feather in the cap, we could've had King Balor alongside Money in the Bank Priest.
Maybe King Sami or King Owens. And on the Women's it could've been Queen Bayley or Queen Jade. While the rub may not last long at least the characters get a short momentum boost with winning the tournament.

Would far prefer a King of the Ring to a pointless third tier "world" title.

Only if they have a King and Queen dance at the end of the show.

My opinion from last year is the same. If they do it, let Dominik win. The story just writes itself.

Then after Brock won it, everyone started turning into a literal King for some reason. It's only ever worked with Booker T, but yet they keep doing the same thing over and over and it keeps failing |

Totally! Owen Hart winning it elevated him to the main event. Instead of becoming a King, he just got a cool nickname. |

I’ve always liked the King/Queen of the ring stuff. I really enjoyed what Zelina did with it last time.

I’d like to see it delayed to 2024 and in probably April/May and set up a title contender on the following PLE.

It would be worth it to see Dirty Dom win and spend a couple months walking around in a crown and having the most shitty British accent.

Oh shit, I didn't even consider Dom going all in on the gimmick like Booker T did. That would be GOLD. Like in TNA when Booker was feuding with Christian Cage, Cage pissed him off so much be broke character and started talking about how he was gonna whoop his ass. It'd be funny is Dom did the same thing, all British and proper, but when the booing got to him he'd break character and start yelling at them in Spanish. The rest of Judgment Day interacting with Dom's foolishness would be amazing too. |
