The more plans change. We are less than three weeks away from Clash Of Champions and the card is starting to take some shape. The show is built around all of the titles that WWE has, which is quite a number indeed. All of the titles are only line throughout the show and that means champions need to be in action. One person currently holds two titles, but is that going to be the case at the show?
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins are likely to hold onto the Raw Tag Team Titles all the way until Clash Of Champions. The main selling point for the two of them has been both men wrestling twice in one night, meaning they are unlikely to drop the titles before the pay per view. Rollins and Strowman are scheduled to defend their titles against Dolph Ziggler and Bobby Roode before facing off for the Universal Title later that night.
The title match is a big deal. Check out how it was set up:
Opinion: I can’t say I’m surprised at this as WWE doesn’t tend to make major changes to their pay per views with so little time before the show. Rollins vs. Strowman could be a good match, but at the same time I don’t know how much of a draw it is to have the two of them wrestle twice in a night. It cancels things out and unless something surprising happens in the Tag Team Title match, it is little more than just something extra that happens.
