Tue Jun 24 12:20:00 UTC 2025: **WWE Raw Crowns King and Queen of the Ring Finalists, Night of Champions Card Takes Shape**

**Columbus, OH** – The final WWE Raw before Night of Champions delivered a solid show, highlighted by the crowning of the King and Queen of the Ring tournament finalists.

Jade Cargill advanced to the Queen of the Ring final after defeating Roxanne Perez. The match, while initially slow, saw Cargill ultimately secure the win with a Jaded after a powerbomb. Following the match, Asuka appeared for a staredown.

Cody Rhodes punched his ticket to the King of the Ring final by defeating Jey Uso in the main event. The match featured impressive spots from both competitors, with Rhodes ultimately winning with a Cross Rhodes.

However, the show wasn’t without its frustrations. Becky Lynch’s Women’s Intercontinental Championship defense against Bayley was marred by interference from Lyra Valkyria, leading to a no-contest. The finish soured what had been a strong match.

Earlier in the night, Bron Breakker kicked off Raw with a victory over Penta.

**Other key developments:**

* The Women’s World Champion Iyo Sky was barely featured on the show.
* Goldberg and Gunther continued to build their feud ahead of their match,
