Welcome to PWInsider.com’s coverage of WWE’s Night of Champions from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Your host is Michael Cole and he is joined by Jackie Redmond and Wade Barrett.

The panel runs through the card for today's show.

Byron Saxton gives us an update on the King and Queen of the Ring finalists and their preparation for today's matches.

The panel talks about the WWE Championship match.

We have a video package of WWE's working relationship with Saudi Arabia.

Wade Barrett looks back at the Queen of the Ring Tournament.

Byron Saxton is with Jade Cargill.   

He asks her about where she is for this match.

Jade says she is focused.  She has a little girl who can't wait to see her come home with the crown.  Asuka started a fire she could not put out. 

The panel talks about Queen of the Ring.

We take a look at the Street Fight.

Jackie interviewed Rhea earlier today.

She is asked about their current hatred.  Rhea says it is all Raquel's fault.  They were best friends in NXT.  She felt like they were family.  She loved her like a sister.  Once her career took off and she faced Shayna for the title, Raquel turned.  Everything changed.  She has a reminder of what Raquel meant to her.

Jackie asks Rhea what will she do to win?

Rhea says she will do absolutely anything.  They had a Last Woman Standing and a No Holds Barred match and they each won one.  She will do anything to put Raquel in the ground because she has been a thorn in her side.  Raquel knows all of Rhea's struggles to get here so she wants to smash Raquel in the face.

Jackie asks how much this win means to get back into the championship picture.

She says she will stop at nothing to get her baby back.  She has done things she is not proud of but she will have to do it again.  She says she has to go through people again to get there.  If she does not want the title, why is she even here.  She wants to be the top dog and she has to show everyone who she is.

We take a look back at yesterday's Women's US Title Match.

We take a look at the Sami Zayn/Karrion Kross match.

Byron Saxton is with Karrion Kross and Scarlett.

He asks what is Kross trying to prove.

He says he is proving the truth that he sees.  Sami is a misdirection artist.  It is a charade.  Sami tries to get you to believe that he is a diffferent man.  He is a violent person.  He weaponizes sympathy.  Kross brings up the Bloodline.  Everyone talks about Sami's story about becoming World Champion, but no one asks Kross about his story.  Kross says everyone is talking about his story and then he says he doesn't want another viral moment.

We take a look at the United States Title Match
