WWE fans in the UK have waited decades for a stadium show to return to their region. Drew McIntyre may have been waiting even longer to main event Clash at the Castle, as in his entire life.
McIntyre has the tallest task on the card this Saturday at the Principality Stadium in Wales, but the biggest payoff if he wins. Should he defeat Roman Reigns, he’ll not only become the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, he’ll also bring the curtain down on an incredibly dominant run for the Tribal Chief that has included more than two years with the Universal Champion.
He’ll undoubtedly have some home field advantage, but he won’t be the only one. Another match that fans are looking forward to with plenty of anticipation is the Intercontinental Championship match between champion Gunther and challenger Sheamus. In what’s guaranteed to be a hard-hitting affair, can Sheamus also tap into the goodwill of the fans to propel him to claiming the one major WWE championship he’s never held?
There’s another title bout on the six-match card as well, with Liv Morgan trying to fend off Shayna Baszler. Even though she’s already defended her SmackDown Women’s Championship against Ronda Rousey, Morgan hasn’t shed her underdog label just yet. A convincing victory over Baszler can help with that, but it’ll be no easy task.
Clash at the Castle will also feature several hot grudge matches. Seth Rollins and Matt Riddle can’t wait to get their hands on each other, as proven over the last few weeks of WWE programming. And Edge and Rey Mysterio will try to put The Judgment Day in the rear view mirror once and for all, though that feels unlikely.
