This makes sense. On this past week’s episode of Smackdown, the main event for the upcoming Clast At The Castle premium live event appeared to be set.
During the show, Drew McIntyre announced that he would be challenging for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship in the show’s main event. At this time, he would be taking on Roman Reigns, should things stay how they are now. While this has not been made official yet, it is expected to be done so.
Clash At The Castle will be the first time WWE has held a pay-per-view in the UK in 30 years. The last show in a significant stadium was SummerSlam ’92 at London’s Wembley Stadium.
McIntyre had missed the last couple of weeks of WWE programming, as he was in the UK doing promotional work for the event.
Editor’s Opinion:
This makes all of the sense in the world to me, and I think it was assumed by most people that this would end up being the main event. It had been rumored that McIntyre and Reigns were on a collision course at some point this year, and having it take place in the UK will make for a historic moment!
