Undisputed WWE Championship action will kick off Clash in Italy this weekend.
A title showdown between defending champ Cody Rhodes and “The Ring General” Gunther will be the first match on this Sunday’s Premium Live Event in Turin, Italy, WWE announced today.
The first hour of Clash in Italy will be simulcast on ESPN’s main linear channel as well as the ESPN Unlimited subscription service, much like what WWE has done earlier this year for Wrestlemania and Backlash.

It was also confirmed on Monday that the first hour of Clash in Italy will feature a WWE Women’s Championship match between Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill.
Sunday’s PLE has five matches in total signed for it. The main event is expected to be a Tribal Combat showdown between Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
