WWE King Of The Ring 2019: 7 Ways WWE Can Make It Work

7. Get Previous Winners To Talk It Up

Anyone who watched this week's episode of Raw would've spotted Steve Austin conducting a thinly-veiled hype piece for his new USA Network show. Michael Cole did ask the legend about Seth Rollins' Universal Title win, but that was secondary next to some convenient advertising for 'Straight Up Steve Austin'.

Let round two commence, only this time make it about the King Of The Ring.

WWE could do much worse with the rekindled idea than inviting former winners back onto the show to discuss how much it meant to their careers. Legendary names like Austin, Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, Edge and Booker T would be solid choices, and so would guys like Triple H, Ted DiBiase and even first ever winner (back in 1985) Don Muraco.

This wouldn't eat up much airtime, would shine the tournament up as important to the men involved and would give WWE an excuse to advertise favourites from the past. It's win-win for everyone and puts over King Of The Ring. It's a no brainer.
