While I have listed the matches out please make your predictions as though it were a bracket. So if you have Elias winning in Round 1, Kevin Owens can’t win in Round 2,3 or 4.

@MJfromNJ can you confirm your round 2 and 3 picks? There’s no waiting until after round 1 to predict round 2 in this contest. It’s meant to be like filling out your bracket before March Madness.
I am kind of excited about WWE booking for the first time in a while.
King of the Ring I hope is an opportunity for some truly exciting (likely short) matches. With the vast majority of talent included being criminally under utilized it is interesting to think this COULD be a mechanism to push someone out of the mid-card.
…or Shane could somehow win and in about a month we will all be in here saying “WTF, why did I get my hopes up?”
Samoa Joe - 1 Point
Drew McIntyre - 1 Point
Cedric Alexander
Baron Corbin - 1 Point
Elias - 1 Point
Ali - 1 Point
Chad Gable - 1 point
vs Andrade - 1 point
