Just a few hours later, Roman Reigns will defend his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle 2022 event set in the United Kingdom. This is a Stadium Show and the hype among the fans is huge given that their homeland favorite, McIntyre will be competing in the main event bout.
The general belief is that The Scottish Warrior will end the two-year dominant title reign of The Tribal Chief. Also, the biggest question in the mind of wrestling fans is that how WWE will eventually book this segment since the most protected superstar on the roster is going to lose at Clash at the Castle 2022 after remaining unpinned or unsubmitted since December 2019.
Clash At The Castle 2022: Top WWE Smackdown Superstar Pulled Off PLE
According to the updates of WrestleVotes, WWE is genuinely considering pulling the trigger on the ongoing title reign with McIntyre who is the current favorite to pick the winner at Clash at the Castle 2022,
“For the first time in a long time, there has been some discussions creatively regarding Roman Reigns dropping the title(s). I’m hearing multiple ideas have intrigued those making the final call come Saturday in Cardiff. Should be an interesting week ahead.”
Roman Reigns Overall 6th Longest Reigning Champion In Entire WWE History
WWE aired a taped episode of Friday’s SmackDown, last night where Roman Reigns celebrated completing two years as champion. However, that was ruined by Drew McIntyre who Claymore-d his way to stand tall against Reigns and his ally Sami Zayn. Also, The Usos were laid out with a beatdown. McIntyre, reigning supreme, does hint that WWE has big plans with him, tonight.
For the time being, Roman Reigns remains the favorite (- 160) to retain his title against Drew McIntyre (+ 120) at Clash at the Castle 2022. However, as you can see, the margin is very low and there’re chances that the outcome would be altered at a point.
