Speaking on Behind The Turnbuckle Studios’ Two Count Tuesday, Jonathan Coachman thinks Triple H’s and the creative team’s priorities are to push the new version of The Bloodline, which might happen when Jey Uso wins the gimmick match. Moreover, Coachman said that management would pick Uso over Oba Femi, as Femi is a younger talent and they could later build him up and give him a push.

“My gut tells me that they’ve said Oba is young. Oba is new. Oba has time for us to build up that storyline. This tells me that the number one most important thing to Triple H and the creative team is The Bloodline and what The Bloodline is going to look like, and this [Jey Uso winning KOTR] is going to be the true launch of it,” Coachman said.

WWE added an extra match to Night of Champions 2026

The new regime operates differently and has made a crucial change to premium live events by restricting the card to five matches. While the rule didn’t apply to WrestleMania and SummerSlam, the company made sure to keep the events’ end under four hours.

While Night of Champions isn’t a grand event, the company decided to change the rules and add one more match to the card. The show will have six matches on the card, but superstars like Rhea Ripley and Roman Reigns won’t compete in Saudi Arabia.

WWE Night of Champions 2026 will take place on 27th June 2026 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It’ll be interesting to see which stars will leave with a win and who will become the 2026 King & Queen of the Ring tournament winners.
