Clash of Champions 2020 Review

WWE Clash of Champions took place on the 27th September at the WWE Thunderdome at the Amway Center in Orlando. We have 8 matches on the card so, let's take a look.

The match on the Kick Off Show was The Lucha House Party challenging Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship. Cesaro and Nakamura focus on Lince Dorado for most of the match and, despite a brief fightback, they get the win after a Giant Swing/Kinsasha combo on Kalisto. I thought this was a good match between the two teams.

Winners: Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura (1 for 1)

The first match of the show is a triple threat ladder match between Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles and Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship. After a time of the three of them destroying each other, Zayn remembers that he brought some handcuffs with him. He proceeds to handcuff Hardy's ear lobe to a ladder but is initially unsuccessful with doing the same to Styles. Zayn eventually handcuffs himself to Styles, forcing Styles to carry Zayn on his shoulders up a ladder. When Styles gets distracted dealing with Hardy, who had to take the ladder he was handcuffed to with him, Zayn uses a key to get out of the handcuffs and then handcuff Styles to the ladder. With his opponents incapacitated, Zayn climbs up the other side of the ladder and grabs the belts to win the match. I quite enjoyed the match and I'm happy that Zayn got back the Championship that he, technically, got screwed out by WWE. I also thought the ending of the match was very clever.

Winner: Sami Zayn (2 for 2)

After we see Drew Gulak pin R-Truth to become the 24/7 Champion, we get Zelina Vega challenge Asuka for the RAW Women's Championship. Asuka initially underestimates Vega but she injures her left arm, giving Vega an opportunity to get the advantage. After a few pinning combinations, Asuka manages to get Vega to submit to the Asuka Lock and get the win. I thought that the match could have been better. Vega is a good wrestler but she hasn't wrestled much since joining the WWE so it might be ring rust. 

Winner: Asuka (3 for 3)

The next match is Apollo Crews challenging Bobby Lashley for the United States Championship. Crews comes close after hitting a standing shooting star press followed by a frog splash. However, Lashley hits a standing spine buster then gets Crews to submit to the Hurt Lock to get the win. The match was pretty decent.

Winner: Bobby Lashley (4 for 4)

Next is Andrade and Angel Garza challenging The Street Profits for the RAW Tag Team Championship. Despite Montez Ford getting worn down by Andrade and Garza, The Street Profits managed to recover and Dawkins hits The Anointment on Garza to get the win, despite the referee missing Garza getting his shoulder up. I thought it was a bit short but it was a fun match.

Winners: The Street Profits (4 for 5)

After R-Truth regains the 24/7 Championship, Bayley comes out and issues an open challenge. Asuka accepts and we get a impromptu match for the Smackdown Women's Championship. After a few minutes, Bayley attacks Asuka with a steel chair, getting herself disqualified and giving Asuka the win. Afterwards, Sasha helps Bayley celebrate by hitting her with a steel chair and a kendo stick. The match was just used to advance a story between Sasha and Bayley. I don't mind that normally but I wouldn't have used Asuka to do it.

Winner: Asuka (N/A)

 The penultimate match is for the WWE Championship as Randy Orton challenges Drew McIntyre in an ambulance match. Throughout the match, people that Orton attacked over the last few weeks turn up to get their revenge. The first was The Big Show, who choke slammed Orton. This was followed by Christian, who attacked Orton when they were backstage; and Shawn Michaels, who hit Orton with Sweet Chin Music. In the end, McIntyre manages to get Orton in the ambulance and punts him before shuttting the doors and getting the win. The match was quite good and it was pretty cool seeing Orton get his comeuppance from some of the people he attacked.

Winner: Drew McIntyre (5 for 6)

The main event is Jey Uso challenging Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship. Reigns is completely dominant for most of this match. Jey makes a comeback and comes close after hitting an Uso Splash. However, he is hit by a low blow by Reigns while he was kicking out. Reigns goes on to hit 2 spears and beats up Jey, forcing Jimmy to come out and throw in the towel, giving Reigns the win. I thought this was a good match and it really set Reigns' heel turn in stone with the way he brutalised Jey. 

Winner: Roman Reigns (6 for 7)

I thought that Clash of Champions was an ok event. The ladder match and the main event were good but the rest of the matches were just ok to me. I do wonder whether the next event will be more of the same.

WWE Clash of Champions 2019 Review

WWE Clash of Champions 2019 took place on Sunday 15th September at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. With 11 matches on the card and every main roster Championship being defended, how many new Champions will we see? Let's take a look.

There were 2 matches on the Kick Off Show and the first was for the Cruiserweight Championship as Humberto Carillo and Lince Dorado challenge Drew Gulak in a Triple Threat Match. The match stats at a fast pace until Carillo manages to get Gulak by himself. Later on, Gulak focuses on the mid section of Dorado. In the end, Carillo hits Dorado with an Aztec Press. However, Gulak throws Carillo into the ring post and he pins Dorado to get the win. The ending went slightly wrong as Dorado didn't have his shoulders down properly to begin with. Otherwise, it was a fun match to watch.
Winner: Drew Gulak (1 for 1)

The second match is for the United States Championship as Cedric Alexander challenges AJ Styles. As soon as the bell rings, Alexander goes 100 mph at Styles. Styles recovers and hits a brain buster onto the ring apron and then hits a Styles Clash onto the floor. Alexander does make a comeback but it wasn't enough as Styles hits a Phenomenal Forearm followed by a Styles Clash to get the win. Afterwards, Styles celebrates by beating the fuck out of Alexander with help from his buddies, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows. I was quite surprised that this match was on the Kick Off Show. However, I thought it was a good match.
Winner: AJ Styles (2 for 2)

The first match of the show was for the RAW Tag Team Championship as Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler challenge Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman. Ziggler and Roode struggle to deal with Strowman at the beginning but later on, they get the advantage after Ziggler hits Rollins with a DDT to the floor. Rollins hits a falcon arrow on Ziggler, giving him the chance to tag in Strowman. In the end, Strowman accidentally knocks Roode into Rollins and is then sent out of the ring by Ziggler. Roode hits Rollins with the Glorious DDT to get the win. This was a decent match to start the show.
Winners: Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler (3for 3)

The next match is for the Smackdown Women's Championship as Charlotte Flair challenges Bayley. Charlotte hits a big boot as soon as the bell rings to get a close near fall. Charlotte overwhelms Bayley, sending her into the barricade and hitting moves such as another big boot. With Bayley in the corner, the referee gets Charlotte back. This gives Bayley the chance to expose the bottom turnbuckle and goes on to throw Charlotte into it and get the pin. The match was shorter than I thought it would be but I quite liked the ending.
Winner: Bayley (4 for 4)

We now get The Revival challenging The New Day for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship. Dash Wilder clotheslines Big E off the apron to get the advantage. Eventually, Big E is able to tag in Xavier Woods but he re-injures his knee and The Revival hit Big E with the Shatter Machine. This gives The Revival the chance to team up on Woods. They hit Woods with another Shatter Machine then Dawson gets him to submit to an inverted Figure Four, giving The Revival the win. I thought this was quite a good match between the two teams.
Winners: The Revival (4 for 5)

Next is our third Tag Team Championship match as Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville challenge Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross for the Women's Tag Team Championship. The match gets disrupted when 24/7 Champion R-Truth runs into the ring, chased by a few wrestlers. When they leaves, Rose and Deville get the advantage, wearing down Bliss. Rose and Bliss punch each other down, and Bliss manages to tag in Cross. In the end, Cross hits Rose with a hanging neckbreaker to get her team the win. I thought this was a good match.
Winners: Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross (4 for 6)

We now get the Intercontinental Championship match as Hollywood Miz challenges Shinsuke Nakamura. During the match, Sami Zayn is on the microphone praising Nakamura and Miz responds by throwing the microphone up the ramp. Zayn distracts Miz long enough to get the advantage and he keeps him with knee strikes. Miz gets back into it and focuses on Nakamura's left knee. Miz manages to put Nakamura in the Figure Four but he gets to the ropes. Miz avoids the Kinsasha and hits the Skull Crushing Finale but Zayn stops the referee from making the count. Miz goes after him but Nakamura knees him then hits the Kinsasha to get the win. I thought this was a decent match.
Winner: Shinsuke Nakamura (4 for 7)

Next is our second Women's Championship match as Sasha Banks challenges "The Man" Becky Lynch. Lynch starts by slapping Banks and slamming her head continuously onto the mat. Banks pulls Lynch off the turnbuckle and kicks her numerous times in the corner to get the advantage. Lynch makes a comeback but Banks get her in the Bank Statement. After both ladies try to get their opponent to submit, Sasha uses a steel chair to hit Lynch but she kicks out. When Banks tries again, the referee grabs it off her. Lynch goes on to use but she accidentally hits the referee. The fight then goes into the crowd and then back into the ring when Lynch beats the fuck out of Banks with a chair  After other officials intervene, it's announced that Lynch has been disqualified. I quite liked the match and I thought the ending was a good one as it continued the feud.
Winner: Sasha Banks (4 for 8)

We now get Randy Orton challenging Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship. Orton blindsides Kingston with an elbow, giving him the advantage. He goes on to brtualise Kingston, sulpexing him multiple times onto the crowd barrier and the German announce table. Kingston makes a comeback and goes for the Trouble in Paradise but Orton reverses it into a backbreaker. Later on, Orton hits a RKO but Kingston manages to get his foot on the rope. In the end, Orton misses a punt kick and Kingston hits the Trouble in Paradise to get the win. It was a little slow paced at the beginning but I quite enjoyed the match.
Winner: Kofi Kingston (5 for 9)

The penultimate match is No Disqualification Match between Roman Reigns and Erick Rowan. Highlights of the match include: them fighting in the crowd, Rowan running Reigns down with a running crossbody; Reigns hitting Rowan with the steel steps followed by hitting a Superman punch; Rowan powerbombing Reigns through the announce table; and Reigns hitting Rowan with a camera crane by the entrance. Reigns goes to spear Rowan and he is stopped by a big boot by a returning Luke Harper. Harper and Rowan then team up to take out Reigns and Rowan hits a Iron Claw to get the win. I thought this was a good match.
Winner: Erick Rowan (5 for 10)

The main event is for the Universal Championship as Braun Strowman challenges Seth Rollins.  Both guys try to end the match early but to no avail. Strowman starts throwing Rollins round and running him down with shoulder charges. Rollins starts to roll out of the ring at every opportunity and he goes on to send Strowman flying over the German announce table. Strowman goes for a Running Powerslam but Rollins manages to apply a sleeper. He then goes on to hit 3 Curb Stomps but Strowman keeps on kicking out. Rollins then hits a Pedigree follwed by a fourth Curb Stomp to get the win. Afterwards, "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt surprises Rollins by the entrance and attacks him with a Sister Abigail and a Mandible Claw. The match was short but I really enjoyed it.
Winner: Seth Rollins (6 for 11)

I quite enjoyed Clash of Champions. All of the matches were quite good and at times it was fun to watch. My problem is where they seem to be heading. With Brock Lesnar getting involved with Kofi Kingston, it seems that they want to go back to having a part time Champion and I think that is the wrong direction to go.

WWE Clash of Champions 2019 Preview

WWE Clash of Champions 2019 will be taking place this evening at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. There are 11 matches on the card so let's take a look.

Drew Gulak vs Humberto Carrillo vs Lince Dorado
Triple Threat Match for the Cruiserweight Championship
This should be fun to watch and I'm going for Gulak to retain.
Predicted Winner: Drew Gulak

Bayley vs Charlotte Flair
Smackdown Women's Championship
This should be a good match and I think that Bayley will win.
Predicted Winner: Bayley

Roman Reigns vs Erick Rowan
No Disqualification Match
I think that Reigns will win here
Predicted Winner: Roman Reigns

AJ Styles vs Cedric Alexander
United States Championship
I'm quite looking forward to this one and I believe that Styles will win.
Predicted Winner: AJ Styles

Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross vs Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville
Women's Tag Team Championship
I might be in the minority but I'm going for Rose and Deville to get the win.
Predicted Winners: Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Hollywood Miz
Intercontinental Championship
A tough one to call but I'm interested to see how Miz does as a babyface Champion so I'm going for him to win.
Predicted Winner: The Miz

The New Day vs The Revival
Wait, aren't The Revival on RAW? Anyway, it won't matter as The New Day will retain.
Predicted Winners: The New Day

Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins vs Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler
RAW Tag Team Championship
This is an interesting one as Strowman and Rollins will be facing each other later on. I can see Strowman fucking Rollins over, meaning that Roode and Ziggler will get the win.
Predicted Winners: Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler

"The Man" Becky Lynch vs Sasha Banks
RAW Women's Championship
Whilst I love the reign of "The Man", I can see Bayley helping Sasha get the win.
Predicted Winner: Sasha Banks

Kofi Kingston vs Randy Orton
WWE Championship
I really don't want Orton to win so Kofi to retain.
Predicted Winner: Kofi Kingston

Seth Rollins vs Braun Strowman
Universal Championship
I can only see Rollins winning this one.
Predicted Winner: Seth Rollins

As usual, I won't get to see the event for a couple of days. I hope you all enjoy the show.

WWE Clash of Champions 2017 Review

The match on the Kick Off Show was Mojo Rawley taking on Zack Ryder. Ryder goes right at Rawley at the beginning before Rawley gets the advantage. Ryder does make a comeback but Rawley hits a brutal elbow to the head to get the win. This was a pretty decent match between the two.
Winner: Mojo Rawley  (1 for 1)

The first match of the show was a triple threat match for the United States Championship as Bobby Roode and Dolph Ziggler challenge Baron Corbin. Ziggler and Roode team up to take out Corbin before fighting each other. Corbin recovers and focuses on Roode while keeping Ziggler down. The match goes at at fast pace and Ziggler comes close after hitting a fameasser on Roode. Roode covers Ziggler after hitting him with a Glorious DDT but Corbin pulls him off. In the end, Corbin is about to hit The End of Days on Roode when Ziggler hits Corbin with the Zig Zag to get the win. Thisu was a realyl good match and I enjoyed the match. The only problem is what happened on the following Smackdown. Ziggler basically vacates the Championship and walks away. It does beg the question of why he wanted to be added to the match if he was going to vacate the Title. Anyway, let's see who our new Champion will be in the new year.
Winner: Dolph Ziggler (1 for 2)

The second is a fatal 4-way match for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship as The Usos deal with the challenges of Aiden English and Rusev, The New Day and Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin. Highlights of the match include: Jey Uso and Big E briefly working together; English hitting a Samoa drop into a spine buster on Gable and Rusev putting Big E in the Accolade. After Gable goes through a tonne of German suplexes, The Usos proceed to superkick him to death then hit an Uso Splash to get the win. The match was hard to follow at the beginning with 4 wrestlers in the ring at the same tine. However, as the match went on, it got better.
Winners: The Usos (2 for 3)

We now get our 3rd Championship match as Natalya challenges Charlotte Flair in a lumberjack match for the Smackdown Women's Championship. Natalya gets the advantage and keeps throwing Charlotte out of the ring so that she can get beaten up by the lumberjacks. Eventually, thanks to the lumberjacks, it degenerates into a clusterfuck. Natalya dithers putting on the sharpshooter and Charlotte reverses it into a Figure 8 to get the win. The match was pretty decent although I felt that the match was more about the lumberjacks than the actual competitors.
Winner: Charlotte Flair (3 for 4)

Next is Breezango taking on The Bludgeon Brothers. After about 2 minutes, Harper and Rowan hit Fandango with the double crucifix powerbomb to get the win. This match was shorter than the time they took to show the international announcers during Breezango's entrance. I feel that this didn't mean to be a squash match, especially as The Fashion Files have led up to this point.
Winners: The Bludgeon Brothers (4 for 5)

The penultimate match is Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens taking on Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura with Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan as Special Guest Referees. After a while, Owens and Zayn get the advantage, wearing down Orton. Orton manages to hit a back suplex on Zayn, giving him the chance to tag in Nakamura. Owens frog splashes Nakamura through the announce table and Orton RKOs Zayn but Owens pushes Bryan onto Shane to stop the count. Zayn rolls up Orton but Shane doesn't finish the count. Bryan and Shane argue and Orton tries to RKO Zayn. However, Zayn rolls up Orton and they get the win after Bryan does the count at lightning speed.

I struggled to enjoy the match to be honest and it shows that Shane is the absolute worst right now. Owens and Zayn have got their comeuppance a couple of times but Shane proceeds to stack the deck against them and then try to fuck them over during the match, giving Bryan the reason to do the fast count. don't forget, Shane is technically the face here but if you're a face in the WWE, that somehow gives you permission to be a bigger dick than the heels. Anyway, I expect that this will lead to a Shane/Bryan feud in the near future.
Winners: Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens (5 for 6)

The main event is Jinder Mahal challenging AJ Styles for the WWE Championship. Styles attacks Mahal's left leg before he gets bounced off the ropes, injuring the ribs. Mahal continues the advatnage by suplexing Styles onto the announce table and applying a body scissors. Eventually, Styles manages to recover and start a comeback after hitting a electric chair drop. After some back and forth, Styles hits a 450 splash but The Singhs try to pull Mahal out of the ring (which is not a disqualification apparently). In the end, Mahal goes for the Styles Clash but Styles gets out of it and gets Mahal to submit to the Calf Killer to retain the Championship. The match was a pretty decent way to end the show.
Winner: AJ Styles (6 for 7)

Like a lot of the WWE events this year, I felt that Clash of Champions was a mixed bag. Some matches were pretty good but some weren't great. Hopefully, with the Rumble coming up, it will improve.

WWE Clash of Champions 2017 Preview

The last PPV of the year, Clash of Champions will be taking place this evening at the TD Garden in Boston. There are some interesting matches on the card so how will it go? Let's take a look.

Zack Ryder vs Mojo Rawley
The match on the Kick Off Show involves the break up of The Hype Bros. I'm going for Mojo to win.
Predicted Winner: Mojo Rawley

Breezango vs The Bludgeon Brothers
Er...I'm not too bothered about this match but I'm going for The Bludgeons to win.
Predicted Winners: The Bludgeon Brothers

Charlotte Flair vs Natalya  
Lumberjack Match for the Smackdown Women's Championship
I can see this developing it into a clusterfuck between The Riott Squad and the rest of the women's roster.  I feel that Charlotte will find a way to win here.
Predicted Winner: Charlotte Flair

The Usos vs Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable vs The New Day vs Rusev and Aiden English
Fatal 4-Way for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship
This is one match that I'm quite looking forward to seeing and I'm torn on how I think will win this. I think that The Usos will retain here.
Predicted Winners: The Usos

Baron Corbin vs Bobby Roode vs Dolph Ziggler
Triple Threat Match for the United States Championship
Another tough one to call but I'm going on a limb here and going for Bobby Roode to become Champion.
Predicted Winner: Bobby Roode

AJ Styles vs Jinder Mahal
WWE Championship Match
I cannot see Jinder winning so Styles to win here.
Predicted Winner: AJ Styles

Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens vs Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura
Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon Special Guest Referees
This is a very interesting one to watch. Even though Owens and Zayn are technically the bad guys, Shane has been a jerk to them unncessarily. Having two referees will definitely degenerate into a clusterfuck and does that mean we could see a Bryan heel turn? I can't see it but you never know. I'm going for Owens and Zayn to find some way to win here.
Predicted Winners: Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens

As usual, I won't get to see this til at least Tuesday. Until then, I hope you guys enjoy the show.

WWE Clash of Champions 2016 Review

WWE Clash of Champions, which is the first RAW exclusive Pay-Per-View in over 9 years, took place this Sunday at the Banker's Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. With every RAW Championship on the line, how will RAW look afterwards? Let's take a look.

The match on the Kick Off Show is Nia Jax taking on Alicia Fox. Alicia immediately goes on the offense, surprising Nia. However, it is quickly dealt with and despite a brief flurry by Alicia, Nia hits a Samoan drop to get the win. The match was ok but I slightly worry about what they're doing with Nia. Hopefully she will be in the Championship picture in the near future.
Winner: Nia Jax (1 for 1)

The first match on the show is for the RAW Tag Team Championships as Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson challenge Kofi Kingston and Big E from The New Day. Gallows immediately destroys Big E with a clothesline and this gives Anderson the chance hit Kofi with a running powerbomb then continue his assault. Big E does recover and gets tagged in by Kofi. Later on, Gallows and Anderson go for the magic killer for Kofi but are unsuccessful. In the end, Xavier Woods hits Anderson with the trombone Francesca and Kofi and Big E hit the midnight hour to get the win. A really enjoyable match to start the show although I don't like it when faces use heel tactics to win matches.
Winners: The New Day (1 for 2)

The next match is for the Cruiserweight Championship as The Brian Kendrick challenges TJ Perkins. Perkins goes for the kneebar early on but Kendrick starts to focus on the head and neck, applying straightjacket moves. Perkins does get back into it and gets the win after applying the kneebar. It was a good match but based on the amazing matches that we had in the Cruiserweight Classic, I do wonder if it could have been better.
Winner: TJ Perkins (2 for 3)

We now get the final match in a best of 7 series between Cesaro and Sheamus. Both guys get to use some unique offense against their opponent such as Cesaro hitting a 619. The end comes when the fight goes to the outside and Cesaro clotheslines Sheamus into the crowd. Medics attend to them and the referee determines that they cannot continue and ends the match due to a no contest. Wait, what? What a shitty ending. This was a good match and it was a shame that it ended like this.
Winner: No Contest (2 for 4)

Now a match I was really looking forward to: Sami Zayn taking on Chris Jericho. Jericho gets the advantage after hitting Zayn to the outside with a springboard dropkick. Zayn avoids a bulldog by throwing Jericho into the turnbuckle to start a comeback. After kicking out of a blue thunder bomb, Jericho suddenly hits the codebreaker to get the win. Whilst it seemed a bit slow at times, it was an enjoyable match between the two.
Winner: Chris Jericho (3 for 5)

Next was a triple threat match for the RAW Women's Championship as Bayley and Sasha Banks challenging Charlotte, who had Dana Brooke in her corner. After some back and forth, Dana takes out Bayley allowing Charlotte to focus on Sasha's back. Bayley gets back into it and hits the belly to Bayley on  Charlotte but Sasha stops it. Sasha puts Charlotte in the Banks statement but Dana pulls her out of the ring. In the end, Charlotte hits 2 big boots on Bayley to get the win. This was a good match but most of the time, it felt it was an 1-on-1 match between Sasha and Charlotte.
Winner: Charlotte (4 for 6)

The penultimate match is for the United States Championship as Roman Reigns challenges Rusev. Rusev focuses his attack on Reigns' ribs with punches and knee strikes. Later on, Reigns gets back into it and goes out of the accolade to hit a spear. However, Lana pulls the referee out of the ring. Instead of disqualifying Rusev, the referee ejects Lana. Rusev does apply the accolade but Reigns powers out of it and hits a spear to get the win. Up until the first spear, I found the match to be boring but then it picked up the pace and it seemed to be a bit better.
Winner: Roman Reigns (4 for 7)

The main event is Seth Rollins challenging Kevin Owens  for the WWE Universal Championship. Owens takes control after hitting a brutal DDT. He then focuses on Rollin's surgically repaired knee. rollins gets back the advantage after hitting a clothesline and slingblade. There was a bit where Owens misses a senton and crashes through the German announce table. Suddenly Chris Jericho(??) runs in and Rollins hits a pedigree. However, Jericho puts Owens on the rope. Rollins then knocks down the referee after getting out of a pop up powerbomb. The action continues and Stephanie McMahon sends out another referee. Owens then hits a pop up powerbomb to get the win.

I enjoyed most of the match but then it degenerated into a clusterfuck. We were all expecting Triple H to run in so it was surprising to see Jericho do it instead. We still haven't seen him on WWE TV since then yet he was at the show as seen in a wwe.com video. So, what is going on?
Winner: Kevin Owens (5 for 8)

I thought that Clash of Champions was a mixed bag. The wrestling was generally good but some of the matches were ruined with some bad endings. Hopefully, it will get better when Hell in a Cell comes around.

WWE Clash of Champions 2016 Preview

WWE Clash of Champions will be taking place this evening at the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. With 5 Championships, how will the 1st RAW exclusive Pay-Per-View in over 9 years? Let's look at the card.

Alicia Fox vs Nia Jax

Yeah, Nia Jax will destroy Alicia Fox here.

Predicted Winner: Nia Jax

Cesaro vs Sheamus

The final match of the series will be taking place and I think that Sheamus will win here.

Predicted Winner: Sheamus

Rusev vs Roman Reigns

United States Championship

This is a tough one to call as I can see Reigns. However, I think that Rusev will win here.

Predicted Winner: Rusev

Charlotte vs Sasha Banks vs Bayley

WWE Women's Championship

This has the potential of being the match of the night and one that I'm looking forward to. I would love Sasha to win but I feel that Charlotte will win here.

Predicted Winner: Charlotte

Sami Zayn vs Chris Jericho

This is another match that I'm looking forward to and a tough one to call. I'm going for Jericho to win here.

Predicted Winner: Chris Jericho

The New Day vs Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson

WWE Tag Team Championships

Whilst I've mostly enjoyed the New Day's reign, I feel it might be time for a change so Anderson and Gallows to win here.

Predicted Winners: Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson

TJ Perkins vs The Brian Kendrick

WWE Cruiserweight Championship

This could be a good match. I can't see Perkins losing so he will win here.

Predicted Winner: TJ Perkins

Kevin Owens vs Seth Rollins

WWE Universal Championship

I'm a big fan of both these guys so I'm looking forward to this one. I think that Owens will win here with maybe a little help from Triple H.

Predicted Winner: Kevin Owens

I'll get to watch the show during the week and post my review then. Until then I hope you guys enjoy the show.
