Several of the entrants in WWE’s King of the Ring tournament have taken to Twitter to talk up what they hope to achieve. Baron Corbin is a man of few words, but he still hopes to make an impact in the first round.

Drew McIntyre hopes to not only be the next King of the Ring, but the next King of Scotland. Drew feels that the next king needs to be a Superstar who “turns heads when he walks in the room.” “Why be the Man when I can be the damn King?”

Sami Zayn states that he knows he’s been on a losing streak, and he’s “not OK with it.” King of the Ring is the “perfect time” to let people know who they’re dealing with because Sami knows that he’s “wrestling royalty.”
“You come at the ?, you best not miss!” Will @SamiZayn add #KingOfTheRing to his résumé? #WWEOmaha pic.twitter.com/M0BuUYAROR
