Sources have informed me that the word going around backstage at Raw in London today is that next week's Raw, which is a three-hour event, will be built around a one-night "King Of The Ring" tournament. From what I've been told, the belief is that the whole tournament will be held over the course of the show next week, with all tournament matches being held that night. I have not gotten this confirmed, but I believe it will be an eight-man tournament.

I hope this really happens

They should hold the finals at Backlash but that's if it's true...and what does the winner get, a World title shot?

it should be back coz they had a reason for not continuing the event before (Booker T King Booker gimmick) but as he is not in WWE anymore, this should be back now.

I have no idea how exactly they are going to do it or who is going to be in it, but it's going to be sweet. I think tournaments are sweet so that'd be great if they brought it back.

CM Punk should win this! Let him get some wins and make him look like a star.

That would make no sense why give him money in the back and king of the ring. It would be a waste for him to have both.

Santino should win. He would be the best person for a king of the ring gimmick if they are going to make it a comedy gimmick again.

If it is going to seriously push a midcarder(which I doubt it will because of the fact that it is on free TV) it should be Kennedy.

I dont think santino will ever be more than a jobber. He is probably the most entertaining jobber ever lol. Stealing the kings sandwich was hilarious.

Despite Punk winning MITB, he hasn't looked all that impressive. It makes Punk look legit if he goes to the A show and wins a couple of matches on the same night.

And Cenamark, judging from the spoilers, I doubt that Santino will win KoTR.
