The build for WWE Clash in Paris has been more than a little bizarre, but the European show is going to be littered with star-power.
Despite the lack of AJ Styles from Clash in Paris, the likes of Roman Reigns, John Cena, and Logan Paul have fleshed out the stadium show.
There might not be space for WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, but the electric atmosphere in France should carry WWE through the event.
Here are our predictions for WWE Clash in Paris as Paul takes on Cena and Reigns tackles ‘Big’ Bronson Reed.
Logan Paul shocks John Cena with a huge win
John Cena’s WWE retirement tour has been criticised by fans for a multitude of reasons, one being that Cena is yet to put any new stars over.
Cena’s match with Paul provides the perfect opportunity to do just that, although fans are unlikely to be positive about it.
Despite his overwhelmingly negative reactions online and in arenas, WWE clearly sees The Maverick as a future World Champion.
For that reason, there is every chance Paul will beat Cena at Clash in Paris – and provide the 17-time champion with a hurdle to jump over before he faces Brock Lesnar at Wrestlepalooza.
A win for Paul would be massive for the star, while it would do absolutely nothing for Cena at this point in his career.
Rusev picks up a much-needed win against Sheamus
Rusev and Sheamus is a bizarre choice to make a five-match PLE card, but the two men will likely put on a hard-hitting display in front of a lively European crowd.
The Bulgarian is yet to set WWE alight since jumping ship from AEW after WrestleMania, but there’s no doubt he’ll win this one against Sheamus.
Triple H clearly does not see Sheamus as a viable top star anymore, and there’s still a chance for Rusev to climb back up the ranks in WWE.
A win for the Bulgarian here should see him jump straight into the Intercontinental Championship picture on WWE Raw.
Becky Lynch retains against Nikki Bella in dominant fashion
Becky Lynch has done an incredible job of legitimising the Women’s Intercontinental Championship since nabbing it from Lyra Valkyria.
The Irish star has even defended the belt on WWE TV and her reign should continue long into the end of the year.
There’s little belief that Nikki Bella will win the title, or that she’ll even put on a solid match with Lynch, but her name value has earned her a place on the card.
This will likely be the shortest match on the card and Lynch will pick up a dominant victory against the WWE Hall of Famer.
Seth Rollins escapes with his title against CM Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight
The build for Seth Rollins’ four-way with LA Knight, Jey Uso, and CM Punk has been impressive so far, considering WWE is treading water until they can do Punk and Reigns vs Rollins in singles matches.
The babyfaces trying to suss each other out on WWE Raw has been well written, but there’s little drama about who will win the match.
Rollins will definitely retain his World Heavyweight Championship and it’s very likely Uso will be the one taking the pin, despite making history on the show.
How WWE navigates its way out of Clash in Paris and keeps Knight and Uso relevant is the real question here.
Roman Reigns slays Bronson Reed for first singles PLE win in nearly two years
Reigns is competing in Europe for the first time since 2023 as he takes on Reed at the huge France show.
The Tribal Chief will absolutely topple the big man, but the story of a plucky underdog Reigns taking on Reed could end up being the match of the night.
A rare Reigns WWE singles match has turned this into appointment viewing before The Tribal Chief jets off to Australia to film the new Street Fighter movie.
Reigns should beat Reed here in about 10 minutes in front of a red-hot crowd willing him to defeat the big man.
