WWE SmackDown Live Coverage 5/24 – King & Queen Of The Ring Semifinals, Cody Rhodes And Logan Paul Meet

The bell rings and the two lock up. Jax sends Belair crashing into the mat face first, then tosses her across the ring and delivers a splash in the corner. She goes the same thing once more before Belair sets up for a moonsault off the middle rope. Jax avoids it and delivers a shoulder to Jax’s midsection, then rains down right hands on her in the corner.

Belair sends Jax’s face bouncing off the top turnbuckle, then rains down more right hands on her and sends Jax crashing into the ring post shoulder first. She then delivers a crossbody to her on the outside over the top rope.

Back from the break, Jax grabs the crown Belair is wearing around her braid and places it on her head to mock Belair. She then delivers a headbutt to Belair and looks to lock in a submission, but Belair escapes. Jax then looks to land a leg drop, but Belair avoids it. Jax manages to hit a Samoan Drop, but Belair lands a jawbreaker on her off the top rope and ascends to the top. She lands a crossbody and goes for a pin, but Jax kicks out.

Belair fires off forearms on Jax, but Jax trips her and ascends to the top. Belair pulls her off and delivers a powerbomb, then goes for a pin. Jax kicks out, and Belair looks to get her up on her shoulders. Jax blocks her and sends her knee crashing into the mat, then drags Belair into the corner. She ascends to the middle rope, but Belair pulls her down and onto her shoulders. Jax escapes and delivers a senton, then follows it up with the An-Nia-Lator for the win.

Winner: Nia Jax

After the match, Kayla Braxton grabs a mic. She tells Valkyria she just beat Belair just like she beat Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley. She then tells Valkyria that she’ll do the same to her tomorrow night. 

Back from the break, we see Belair icing her injured knee. Tiffany Stratton appears and wishes Belair better luck next time before Byron Saxton enters to check in with Belair to see how she’s feeling after her loss. Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae interrupt and begin mocking Belair. Jade Cargill enters, and Hartwell and LeRae beck down.

Back at ringside, Grayson Waller and Austin Theory are waiting inside the ring.
