For the second week in a row, Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live each featured two King of the Ring first round matches.
On the red side, Ricochet downed Drew McIntyre while Baron Corbin trolled the Universe after beating The Miz.
Over on the blue side, Ali ended Buddy Murphy’s roll, and Chad Gable pulled out a win over Shelton Benjamin.

All of the quarterfinal matches will take place on next week’s Raw and SmackDown, and each features an intriguing stylistic match-up (and is heel vs. face).
The semis will then take place on the Sept. 9 - 10 episodes from Madison Square Garden, with the finals happening at Clash of Champions.
