Clash At The Castle 2022 PLE Plugged In A Huge Success By WWE

Clash at the Castle 2022 was the fourth overall Stadium Show in the WWE calendar that went down at the beginning of this month. It brought some solid competition featuring the top Superstars of the WWE roster. Overall six matches were on the card including three title matches but none of those changed hands.

Roman Reigns retained the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship over Drew McIntyre in the main event of the Clash at the Castle 2022 premium live event. This was the headliner for the first major stadium PPV event in the UK since 1992. It was also the first PPV to be held in the UK since the 2002 Insurrextion.

With Triple H in charge of the show, fans and critics were all in praise of Clash at the Castle 2022 for the in-ring product. The fan reactions were also electric as they were vocal for each of the superstars who attended the show. It was also a big success for the company as they hosted a stadium show in an overseas country other than Saudi Arabia. Touting the same, Triple H shared a new post on Twitter. Here’s what he had written,

“#WWECastle was a massive success for @WWE across all lines of business and the #WWEUniverse in the UK… the next question is where should we go next?!”

Per Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the Clash at the Castle 2022 pay-per-view buyrate among the United States fans was around 8,000 while the usual buyrates for the local PPVs in the country remain much higher. It should be noted that most of the viewership for the WWE Network comes internationally while Peacock provides the viewership only in the United States.

It was also noted that since the PPV buys for Clash At The Castle 2022 were much lower around the United States, this should be the only reason why WWE may not conduct WrestleMania in the near future. According to WrestleTix, the event had 62,215 fans in attendance but the company slightly tweaked the numbers and showed it to be 62,296.
