The 2019 King of the Ring final match will take place tonight on Monday Night Raw after it was originally scheduled to take place at the Clash of Champions pay-per-view.
The two men in the final are Baron Corbin from the Raw brand and Chad Gable from the Smackdown brand, two unlikely finalists from a tournament filled with surprises.
Corbin went through The Miz in the first round and then defeated Cedric Alexander in the quarter-final. He wrestled Samoa Joe and Ricochet in a triple threat match in the semi-final, winning that one to advance to the final. Gable defeated his former tag team partner Shelton Benjamin in the first round and then beat Andrade in the quarter-final. He was set to take on Elias in the semi-final but Elias was injured and defeated Shane McMahon instead to reach the final.
The last King of the Ring was crowned in 2015 when Bad News Barrett defeated Neville.
