"We have so many kings and no queen" - Shotzi & Nox comment on a major WWE rumor

Shotzi & Noz opened up on WWE's reported plan to have a Queen of the Ring tournament later this year during a recent interview with Vicente Beltrán of ViBe & Wrestling.

SmackDown's newest tag team expressed their enthusiasm over WWE having a Queen of the Ring tournament and noted that they would love to be competitors. Shotzi Blackheart put her name in the hat and said that it was the right time for a queen to rise amongst the kings in WWE.

"Yeah, let's go, we need a queen! We have so many kings and no queen; what the heck!" Shotzi said.

Tegan Nox also revealed how she grew up watching the King of the Ring tournaments and that a separate series dedicated to women was long overdue in the WWE.

"For years growing up, we watched King of the Rings, so I think it's time for a Queen of the Ring, and it would be nice if Shotzi and I would be a part of it. That would be great," Nox added.

The ongoing rumors have already attracted the attention of many top WWE superstars, as Liv Morgan recently revealed her intentions to win the inaugural tournament during a chat with WWE Deutschland.

"I want - you know, we just announced Queen of the Ring, and Liv Morgan as Queen of the Ring sounds amazing, so that's something I'm definitely pushing for... Pretty much any accolade you could have in WWE, I'm looking at it," Morgan said. H/t POST Wrestling
