Queen of the Ring 2024 tournament finally started from this week’s episode of Raw onward and it will continue through the coming Raw and Smackdown episodes until the final matches go down at the King and Queen of the Ring premium live event set from Saudi Arabia.
The Queen of the Ring 2024 tournament began on Monday’s Raw episode with three first round bouts, with the fourth first round match set for a house show, this weekend. In the first match, IYO SKY defeated Natalya Neidhart, Zoey Stark defeated Ivy Nile and Lyra Valkyria defeated Dakota Kai to advance to round two.

She has been working in a banged-up state in recent months, as per updates from Wrestling Observer and it also caused her missing time in March due to a knee injury.
