WWE Clash at the Castle returns to the UK once again on June 15th.
Following on from the success of the first Clash at the Castle in Cardiff, Wales in 2022 and Money in the Bank in London one year later, WWE will once again return to the UK and this time will present Clash at the Castle from the OVO Hydro in Glasgow Scotland.
At WWE King and Queen of the Ring it was announced that Drew McIntyre would once again get an opportunity at the World Heavyweight Championship as he takes on Damian Priest. With the memory of the 2022 event and WrestleMania 40 still fresh in fans’ minds, many are hoping that this time will be different.
WWE Clash At The Castle Predictions
Cody Rhodes (c) vs. AJ Styles – “I Quit” Match For The Undisputed Championship
Although AJ Styles has won a WWE Championship in the past in the United Kingdom, it’s extremely unlikely that lightning will strike twice in Glasgow. While The OC may factor into the match with interference and this is likely to be a very entertaining bout filled with weapons, Rhodes will overcome the adversity and continue his run as the Undisputed Champion.
Winner: Cody Rhodes
Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair (c) vs. Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark vs. Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn – Triple threat match for the Women’s Tag Team Championships
In a cruel twist of irony, it appears that it will be a bad night for Scottish wrestlers as although 3 matches see Scottish stars go for championships none appear to be a lock that they will win. With the push of Jade Cargill continuing and neither team looking to be credible challengers at this time, this title will not be changing hands in Glasgow.
Winners: Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair
Bayley (c) vs. Piper Niven – Singles Match For The WWE Women’s Championship
While it is great to see Scotland’s own Piper Niven featured in a marquee match in her home country, this unfortunately won’t be a great night for the former Women’s Tag Team Champion. Although interference is expected from Chelsea Green and the crowd will be firmly behind Niven, Bayley looks almost guaranteed to defend the title against Queen of the Ring winner Nia Jax at SummerSlam.
Winner: Bayley
Sami Zayn (c) vs. Chad Gable – Singles Match For The Intercontinental Championship
This one really could go either way depending on how much longer WWE feel they can keep the Alpha Academy dissension storyline going on for. Either Otis will finally side with Gable and make sure that the Alpha Academy coach wins the title or he has finally taken all that he can stand and will attack Gable to allow Zayn to retain the championship. With a massive pop expected when Otis stands up to Gable and the UK fans having a reputation for being loud, this could be the perfect place to culminate the weeks of abuse from Gable and see him get his comeuppance.
Winner: Sami Zayn
Damian Priest (c) vs. Drew McIntyre – Singles Match For The World Heavyweight Championship
Surely this has to be McIntyre’s time? Having been screwed over in 2 out of 3 of his World Championship reigns and countless opportunities, the hometown victory by Mcinytre is the one fans want the most. Whether he will actually get it or not is another matter due to the change feeling too predictable and the fact that CM Punk could once again factor into McIntyre’s plans. Having previously suffered multiple high-profile losses and is now doing the best work of his career along with signing a new deal, anything less than McIntyre walking out of Glasgow with the championship might actually start a riot in Glasgow. While The Judgment Day is banned from ringside, CM Punk is not.
Winner: Drew McIntyre
