WWE King Of The Ring Bracket Released

By Sean Ross Sapp

WWE has released the bracket for this year's King of the Ring tournament, which kicks off tonight. The tournament will conclude tomorrow night on the WWE Network.

Former King of the Ring winner Sheamus will participate, being the only former winner taking part in the tournament, as all other winners are either part-time or inactive. He'll be facing Dean Ambrose, who is coming off of a win over Luke Harper on last night's Extreme Rules.

Harper himself will square off with Neville, who also picked up a win last night. Absent from last night's show were both R-Truth and Stardust, who will face each other on the other end of the bracket.

The remaining matchup is Dolph Ziggler against Bad News Barrett, in another match pitting an Extreme Rules winner vs. Extreme Rules loser. It's worth noting that all of the participants of the WrestleMania ladder match aside from Daniel Bryan will be in this tournament.

This will be the first King of the Ring tournament since 2010. While the show used to be an annual pay-per-view, it returned on a biennial basis between 2006 and 2010.
