The 2015 King of the Ring was a professional wrestling tournament and WWE Network event that were held by WWE. The tournament was held over two nights – with the opening round matches on April 27, 2015, as part of the live Raw broadcast on USA Network from the Resch Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and the semi-finals and finals on April 28, 2015, aired live on the WWE Network from the iWireless Center in Moline, Illinois.[1] This was the 20th King of the Ring tournament and first since 2010.
