The WWE Night of Champions Event Preview & What You Need To Know:

• Cody Rhodes has had an eventful past month dealing with Gunther, and their two matches have been a lot of controversy, which caused the Special Guest Referee Sami Zayn to fully be inserted into this feud to the point he's involved with this match because in tonight's Main Event, we have Cody Rhodes defending his Undisputed WWE Title against Gunther and Sami Zayn in a Triple Threat Match. Cody Rhodes doesn't need to be pinned to lose his title; a lot is at stake tonight, but who'll walk out Undisputed WWE Champion?

• The King of the Ring Finals. We have Oba Femi, the man who conquered NXT and lit the WWE Main Roster a storm when he debuted on the Main Roster at the Royal Rumble. But tonight, he is one step away from challenging the World Title at SummerSlam in the five months he has been on the Main Roster; he has made his name known. But now he has Jey Uso to worry about, a man who is trying to prove he can do it all alone, and looking to be back in the World Title Scene as he looks to take down The Ruler tonight at Night of Champions. Who'll come out on top tonight at Night of Champions?

• IYO SKY, the genius of the sky, is back in the title picture and has the opportunity to advance to SummerSlam to face either WWE Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan or her best friend, WWE Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley. IYO SKY is currently facing Liv Morgan, and Liv could become the first-ever champion to win the Queen of the Ring Tournament and earn a title opportunity against her long-time rival, Rhea Ripley, for the WWE Women’s Championship. Who will come out on top tonight at WWE Night of Champions?

• Bron Breakker returned from injury and ruined Seth Rollins' WrestleMania Match against Gunther as he speared him not once, but twice, to send a message to his former Leader of The Vision. Then they proceeded to have their first match at WWE Backlash, in which Bron Breakker defeated Seth Rollins to show his former leader he's here and doesn't need him, or he ever needed him. Seth Rollins had an allience of The Street Profits. At first, they didn't see eye-to-eye, but they garnered mutual respect after Montez Ford had a match with Seth Rollins. As we went on the European Trip, on June 1st, the main event was Monday Night RAW. We saw Seth Rollins defeating Bron Breakker in the Main Event of RAW to make the series 1-1. Now that it's split into pieces, there has to be one more match, and this match will be inside a steel cage structure. This could be the final match of this feud, as Bron Breakker looks to destroy his former Leader and mentor, while Seth Rollins looks to end his creation once and for all. Who'll come out on top at WWE Night of Champions in a Steel Cage Match?

• Trick Williams has been an entertaining WWE United States Champion stealing everyone away with his mircophone skills, his presence, and knowing how to captivie a crowd but he also has to defend his championship he managhe to do so against Sami Zayn at WWE Backlash, but tonight a tough task at hand because he doesn't need to be pinned to lose his WWE United States Championship as Ricky Saints will also be competing for a chance to win the WWE United States Title. Ricky Saints defeated Carmelo Hayes, a former WWE United States Champion. Ricky Saints just debuted on the Main Roster a month ago, already making waves as he's wrestling at his 1st PLE Event for the WWE United States Title. Who'll come out of WWE Night of Champions as the WWE United States Champion?

• Tiffany Stratton is set to defend her WWE Women's United States Championship in a big-time title match against one of her better rivals, as Jade Cargill will fight for the WWE Women's United States Title, a title she hasn't won yet. These two have a lot of notable history with Jade Cargill winning her first Women's World Title off of Tiffany Stratton, so Jade Cargill isn't new to beating Tiffany Stratton for a title, but can she do it again tonight?

My Official Match Predictions for WWE Night of Champions:

As WWE Night of Champions approaches, the card is shaping up to deliver a compelling mix of championship stakes and high-profile clashes. Here are my official predictions for the event.

Undisputed WWE Title Triple Threat Match: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Gunther vs. Sami Zayn — This may come as a shock, but I have Sami Zayn shocking the world, and winning this match against Cody Rhodes and Gunther I knoiw that may sound crazy but hear me out, if they can do a swerve, and have Sami Zayn win it adds shock value, and we could see Sami Zayn be World Champion. But that's my prediction.

King of the Ring Final Round Match: Jey Uso vs. Oba Femi — Oba Femi, plain and simple. Oba Femi should win this match; it'll be insane if that doesn't happen because of the added investment everyone has in Oba Femi in WWE and online. If Jey Uso wins, a lot of negative reactions will occur. This is a very easy layup for WWE, have Oba Femi win to face Roman Reigns at WWE SummerSlam this coming August.

Queen of the Ring Final Round Match: IYO SKY vs. Liv Morgan — Liv Morgan should not win this. I think IYO SKY will come out victorious in this match. I would like to see IYO SKY being the one who wins, as it makes the most sense, and who wouldn't want IYO SKY in the World Title scene again? She's amazing, so I think IYO SKY gets the job done tonight, and maybe Stephanie Vaquer returns to help, and costing Liv Morgan in the process?

Steel Cage Match: Bron Breakker (with Paul Heyman) vs. Seth Rollins — Bron Breakker should be winning this match, and ending the feud with Bron Breakker winning two of the three matches. It's time to really establish the future. Bron Breakker has been having a very confusing 2026. I think this is the time to have Bron Breakker destroy Seth Rollins to get the win and move along to newer things.

WWE United States Title Match: Trick Williams (with Lil Yachty) (c) vs. Ricky Saints — Trick Williams is my pick for this match. I don't expect Ricky Saints to win this WWE United States Title. I'll be more shocked if Ricky Saints defeats Trick Williams for the WWE United States Title. So let's see what happens tonight, and hoping Trick Williams gets the win.

WWE Women's United States Title Match: Tiffany Stratton (c) vs. Jade Cargill — Jade Cargill is my pick, she needs another title to add to her resume, and noting she won the Women's World Title, and the Women's Tag Belts, she needs more. I do believe if she wins this title, she can elevate it. Why? Because I have a feeling that if she wins, she will feud with Charlotte Flair over this belt, which would make for some good TV. But I have Jade Cargill beating Tiffany Stratton to become the new WWE Women's United States Champion.
