Cody Rhodes won the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania XL and then retained it at Backlash France against AJ Styles. On the following episode of SmackDown, he was interrupted by WWE United States Champion Logan Paul, who had retained his title at WrestleMania XL against Randy Orton and Kevin Owens. SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis announced that Paul is going to challenge Rhodes in a Champion vs. Champion match at King and Queen of the Ring. The match was then announced to be for Cody Rhodes' title and Logan Paul refused to put his title on the line. Rhodes retained his title against Paul at King and Queen of the Ring.
Zayn secured a WrestleMania title shot via a Raw gauntlet match after last eliminating Chad Gable, who offered to train him. After winning the championship at WrestleMania, he granted his trainer, Gable, a title match. However, Gable turned heel and attacked Zayn after the match. Reed also emerged as a title contender, leading to a heated rivalry. To settle the score, Zayn will now defend the Intercontinental Championship in a triple-threat match against Gable and Reed at King and Queen of the Ring. Sami Zayn retained his title against the two contenders.
Following Rhea Ripley's injury at the hands of Liv Morgan, the Women's World Championship was left vacant. On Raw (April 22nd, 2024), Becky Lynch emerged victorious from a 14-woman Battle Royal, securing the coveted title. However, her celebration was short-lived. Liv Morgan, the last woman eliminated by Lynch, confronted her alongside Nia Jax. Later that night, Morgan dominated Nia Jax in a match, prompting Lynch to grant her a championship opportunity which went down at the upcoming King and Queen of the Ring pay-per-view. Liv Morgan became the new champion at King and Queen of the Ring.
Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair defended their WWE Women's Tag Team Championship in the pre-show of King and Queen of the Ring against former NXT Superstars Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae. In the pre-show, the champions retained their title.
