Sami Zayn has a chance to win the Undisputed WWE Championship tonight at WWE Night of Champions.
He joins Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes and Gunther in a triple threat match. The winner leaves with the title.
Zayn earned his spot through recent storylines on SmackDown. He got involved in matches between Rhodes and Gunther, leading to this three way bout. The format means any of the three men can win with a pinfall or submission.
Zayn has strong support from fans and a history of big moments in Saudi Arabia. He previously won tag team gold there with Kevin Owens. Tonight’s main event gives him another opportunity for a world title.
Rhodes has held the championship through tough defenses. Gunther brings power and a strong record as a former world champion. The match connects ongoing rivalries from recent weeks on television.
The show also features the King of the Ring and Queen of the Ring finals. Those winners earn title shots at SummerSlam later this summer.
