Nia Jax beat Bianca Belair on this week's episode of SmackDown to punch her ticket to the finals of WWE's 2024 Queen Of The Ring tournament. On Saturday, Nia wrestles NXT > main roster newbie Lyra Valkyria for the lavish crown.

WWE did protect Bianca by leaning heavily on her injured knee throughout the bout vs. Jax, but Nia was also allowed to look like a monster heel by targeting the bad limb then doing her best Goldberg by telling Lyra she's next. Meanwhile, Valkyria (who was watching the match from ringside over in Saudi Arabia) talked some smack back at Jax afterwards.

Some may be disappointed that Belair vs. Valkyria won't be happening, at least not yet. Creative will surely get to that match eventually, but Triple H clearly sees more value in Lyra attempting to tear down a bragging powerhouse like Nia first.

SmackDown announce team Corey Graves and Wade Barrett laid it on thick that Valkyria is already swimming upstream and she's only just arrived in the big time.

So, there you go - Nia vs. Lyra has been set for Saturday's King And Queen Of The Ring PLE in Saudi.
