#2 Ricochet qualifies for the King of the Ring finals
The semifinals of King of the Ring is scheduled for the upcoming week. While Elias and Chad Gable will square off against each other on the Blue brand, Ricochet, Samoa Joe and Baron Corbin will battle in a triple threat match on the Red brand for a spot in the finals of the tournament.
Yes, after a bizarre/controversial ending of their match last week, WWE went to announce that both Ricochet and Samoa Joe have qualified for the next round of the tournament.
To be honest, Ricochet who has become the hot favorite to win this tournament after defeating Drew McIntyre looks highly likely to qualify for the finals from the Red brand.
As a matter of fact, it is speculated that this highly anticipated triple threat match was set up to make Ricochet look like the bigger star. The former US champion overcoming all odds to come out on top against two heels would certainly add a considerable amount of momentum behind his back.
