This week's WWE RAW and SmackDown promise to be enthralling and entertaining. Given the company's upcoming premium live event, King and Queen of the Ring, is scheduled for this weekend, fans should expect WWE to leave no stone unturned in hyping the event.

How will things pan out on the final WWE RAW and SmackDown before the Saudi spectacle? Here are four bold predictions for the upcoming episodes of the red and blue brands.


#4. A huge brawl breaks out on WWE RAW

Liv Morgan will challenge Becky Lynch for her title at King and Queen of the Ring. However, mere days before the scheduled clash, the former Women's Champion could look to make a bold statement by attacking The Man on Monday night.

Given Becky is not likely to go down without giving a fight, fans should expect The Man to retaliate, leading to a massive brawl. WWE could further spice things up by having the entire locker room get involved to separate the duo. This potential angle would then set the duo's championship match beautifully for Saturday's event.


#3. Kevin Owens replaces Randy Orton against Tama Tonga

Randy Orton will collide with Tama Tonga in the semifinal of the King of the Ring tournament on Friday's show. Given that prevailing over The Viper won't be an easy task for The Bloodline member, he could come up with a master plan to stop Orton.

Tama, along with Solo Sikoa and Tanga Loa, could take out The Viper right before his scheduled clash. Orton's inability to compete would lead to Tama Tonga qualifying straight for the final.

However, that may not be the case, as WWE could have Kevin Owens return to replace Orton. The Prizefighter could make a comeback to take his recent tag team partner's spot in the match, much to the shock of The Bloodline.


#2. Jey Uso quits WWE RAW

Jey Uso will clash with Gunther in the semi-final of the King of the Ring tournament on WWE RAW. However, he could succumb to a tragic loss due to The Bloodline's interference in the match.

Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa could invade WWE RAW on Solo Sikoa's orders to cost Jey Uso against The Ring General. This potential angle could lead to Main Event Jey quitting the red brand, only to sign a new deal with WWE SmackDown to feud with The Bloodline.


#1. Logan Paul brutalizes Cody Rhodes

Logan Paul will have the chance to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion on Saturday. However, The Maverick is not likely to dethrone Cody Rhodes at the upcoming premium live event.

Given The American Nightmare is expected to retain at King and Queen of the Ring, WWE could book Logan strong on the final SmackDown before the spectacle. The current United States Champion could deliver a brutal beatdown to Rhodes on Friday night, standing tall over him to end the show.
