King and Queen of the Ring Highlights<\/h3>\n

Kingston Gets Dream Match With Gunther\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Kingston will get the honor of being chopped to pieces by King of the Ring favorite\u00a0<\/span>Gunther<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<\/span>WWE Raw<\/span><\/em><\/a>\u00a0in a quarter-final match.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kingston replaced\u00a0<\/span>Xavier<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>Woods<\/span><\/strong> in the tournament after his\u00a0<\/span>New Day<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0partner was injured by Gunther. Kingston has made revenge against Gunther his top priority. But could this laser focus prevent Kingston from winning the tournament?<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a0<\/span>old<\/span>\u00a0adage, \u2018winners focus on winning while losers focus on winners\u2019 springs to mind.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kingston facing the\u00a0<\/span>“Ring General”<\/span><\/strong> less than 24 hours after his victory over Mysterio suggests the outcome of this match will be anything but a mystery.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kingston avoided Mysterio’s 619 and put him down for three with his Trouble in Paradise kick. Watch this moment from the WWE SuperShow<\/em> in Macon below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Gunther has had a weeks rest since his opening round victory over\u00a0<\/span>Sheamus<\/span><\/strong>. Both Gunther\u2019s tournament opponents have been former WWE Champions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
