The final competitor for the WWE Men's King of the Ring Tournament has been revealed, with Adam Pearce confirming Jey Uso's entry into the tournament.
Uso lost the World Heavyweight Championship to Gunther on the latest edition of WWE Monday Night RAW. But, he now has the opportunity to dive right back into the title picture by potentially winning the King of the Ring Tournament.
On the upcoming edition of Monday Night RAW, Jey Uso will face Sheamus, Rusev, and Bronson Reed in a Fatal Four-Way qualifying match. The winner will advance to the semifinal of the tournament. Meanwhile, Sami Zayn has already qualified after defeating Bron Breakker, Penta, and Dominik Mysterio on this week's show.

The other qualifiers for the WWE King of the Ring Tournament will take place on SmackDown. Later today, Cody Rhodes, Damian Priest, Shinsuke Nakamura, and Andrade will compete in the first of the two Fatal Four-Way qualifying matches on the blue brand. The other bout will feature Randy Orton, LA Knight, Aleister Black, and Carmelo Hayes.
Despite Jey Uso's loss to Gunther, he has the opportunity to potentially dethrone the new World Heavyweight Champion as early as next month in a Street Fight that has been confirmed for SmackDown as a Dark Match.
