WWE To Bring Back The King of the Ring Concept

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Just as KB Had Closed Another Thread on It:

WWE is advertising that the King of the Ring concept is scheduled to return as a one-night special for the three-hour Raw in Philadelphia, PA on 11/29. The show takes place at the Wells Fargo Center.

When they did it last time it was worthless as they couldn't follow through on Regal winning it. If they choose the right guy to win, it should be a good concept.

 

[Fuel The Fire]

ya there was no reason on why regal should have one. it could have gone to a younger star. If they do it again im sure they will this time.

 

[ABMorales787]

So... We've had 3 MITB crownings, a Royal Rumble and now we get KOTR. How many breakout stars have been made through this?

Jack Swagger? Wow.

 

[Wolfdemon]

I see either Miz or Punk winning this. Depending on if Punk is actually as bad off as they say.

 

[Lee]

There was good reason, he was due a push but can you say "wellness policy?"

 

[I Suck Ass]

I actually see Kaval or Bryan winning. Either way, this is epic that it is coming back. I might go find an old one on YT to watch over fall break.

 

[The Doctor]

This could be awesome if it goes well.

King Kofi, anyone?

King Bookah!

 

[Big Nick Dudley]

I wish it were it's own PPV again, but one night is better than not having the tournament at all.

I said the same thing in 2008. My dinner that night was rather wordy.

Alphabet Soup?

 

[TLC]

I'm looking forward to this actually. I just hope The Miz doesn't win, I'd love it if someone like Cody Rhodes won.

 

[J-Dogg]

This could be awesome if it goes well.

King Kofi, anyone?

WWE will never allow a black man to be King....at least of all Kofi even though he is all types of cool, they be holding them folks down.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

WWE will never allow a black man to be King...

Tell That to Booker T & Mabel.

 

[J-Dogg]

Tell That to Booker T & Mabel.

Mabel was a fat pile goo, and Booker impersonated a King not very well, on the other hand Kofi could be a real king and WWE know thats not good for business lol. All jokes aside, it will be good to bring KOTR back...i want Bryan or someone like that to win.

 

[The Doctor]

Kofi just needs that little jolt in order to be a main eventer. He has everything else. He's over, exciting, and good on the mic. Bryan isn't ready.

 

[Burnout]

Alberto is a contender.

 

[justinsayne]

Ok I have one question, is this just going to be limited to Raw superstars or is it going to be inter-promotional?

 

[The Doctor]

Alberto Del Rio winning it would be amazing! He could go on and on about how he knew he was a perfect fit because of his royal blood and stuff.

And Justin, I'm not sure anyone knows yet. The last one was interpromotional, I think.

 

[Macca]

It wasn't last time.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

King Alberto. Make It So WWE.

 

[Burnout]

BROCK LESNAR- 2011 KING OF THE RING!

 

[I Suck Ass]

BROCK LESNAR- 2011 KING OF THE RING!

I hope that is sarcasm...

 

[justinsayne]

BROCK LESNAR- 2011 KING OF THE RING!

If only....


And the last one I saw (where Regal won) was Raw only from what I remember, which kinda took ALOT of the luster away from it, making it interpromotional gives you more interesting matches, especially if the first round matches are all Raw vs. SD! matches
