The French fans are ready to take over WWE tonight!
The French crowd is gearing up to shake the WWE cameras once again as the promotion has arrived in the capital city to deliver the Clash in Paris PLE. The third installment of the Clash PLE will take place tonight at the Paris La Défense Arena in Nanterre, Paris, France.
The third Clash event, shortened from the “Clash at the Castle” title used in 2022 and 2024, will feature stars from both Raw and SmackDown. WWE’s second PLE in France, following Backlash 2024, and the first to be held in the Paris metropolitan area, will feature John Cena’s final appearance in the country.
Multiple superstars are set to compete at the show, including John Cena, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, CM Punk, Jey Uso, and Becky Lynch, among others. With less than a few hours left for the show, let us take a look at Khel Now’s predictions for WWE Clash in Paris.
John Cena vs Logan Paul
After SummerSlam 2025, while fans were thrilled to see the ‘real’ John Cena return, Logan Paul wasn’t too keen on Cena’s face turn. Following the title loss at SummerSlam, Cena kicked off the fallout show of SmackDown on August 8, where Logan Paul confronted him and challenged him to a match at Clash in Paris.
The two stars will now battle in a singles match tonight in what will be Cena’s final appearance in France. With nine appearances left and a roaring French crowd, it’s hard to see WWE opting for Cena to take the loss. On the other hand, the possible return of Cena after the win would set the stage for their eventual clash.
Predicted Winner: John Cena
Seth Rollins (c) vs Jey Uso vs LA Knight vs CM Punk – Fatal Four-way match for the World Heavyweight title
During the final moments of the August 11 episode of Monday Night Raw, GM Adam Pearce stepped in to resolve escalating chaos between Seth Rollins, LA Knight, CM Punk, and Jey Uso. Pearce then announced a colossal fatal four-way match where Rollins would put the World Heavyweight title on the line.
The match has a lot of storylines tangled together between the four men, while fans will get to see them face off against each other and possibly team up to target Rollins. The Champion will likely once again capitalize on the chaos between the three men to likely pin one and retain the title. Additionally, international PLEs don’t often feature big title changes and this might be the case tonight.
Predicted Winner: Seth Rollins
Sheamus vs Rusev – Good Ol’ Fashioned Donnybrook match

The two stars have been at odds since Rusev’s return, with their rivalry escalating to the point where they can’t finish matches and are constantly brawling outside the ring. They will now settle their feud inside the squared circle in a Good Ol’ Fashioned Donnybrook match in Paris.
The creator of the Good Ol’ Fashioned Donnybrook match is Sheamus himself, and it is hard to pick him to lose tonight. If WWE decides to continue this feud, it would make sense for Rusev to lose. However, if they’re planning to push him, likely in the title scene, he could win. All being said, Sheamus has a slight advantage when it comes to experience in this match.
Predicted Winner: Sheamus
Roman Reigns vs Bronson Reed
Roman Reigns will make his singles return, facing powerhouse Bronson Reed, a key member of Seth Rollins’ faction, The Vision. This marks Reigns’ first one-on-one contest since January, and the crowd in Paris will undoubtedly give him a thunderous reception.
Reports suggest the Tribal Chief vs Tribal Thief clash to open the show and there is a possibility of an upset win for Reed. However, the match is likely to build towards an eventual clash between Reigns and Rollins for the WrestleMania 41 betrayal, and Reigns will likely emerge victorious, followed by an after-match beatdown to continue the storyline.
Predicted Winner: Roman Reigns
Becky Lynch (c) vs Nikki Bella – Women’s Intercontinental title match

Nikki Bella confronted Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch during the go-home show of WWE Raw this week and challenged her to a clash. Lynch accepted the challenge after some back and forth, the two veterans of the game will now lock horns inside the La Defense Arena tonight.
Bella has stated that she is serious and committed to her return; a title change seems unlikely. Additionally, WWE’s recent rematches involving the Women’s IC title also hint at a rematch and the continuation of the feud between the two veterans, with Lynch likely retaining tonight.
Predicted Winner: Becky Lynch
The Wyatt Sicks (Joe Gacy & Dexter Lumis) (c) vs The Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) – WWE Tag Team titles match

On the go-home show of SmackDown, The Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) defeated Melo Don’t Miz (The Miz & Carmelo Hayes) in a #1 Contenders match for the WWE Tag Titles. They will now battle the current Champions, The Wyatt Sicks (Joe Hacy & Dexter Lumis) at the PLE. This is a very late addition to the PLE.
Wyatt Sicks is being teased in multiple backstage segments with stars. Before the #1 Contenders match, Bo Dalla (Uncle Howdy) even interrupted the Street Profits segment, sowing the seeds of doubt between Ford and Dawkins. While it’s unlikely the Street Profits will split up tonight but a miscommunication might cost them the titles, and if it doesn’t, Erik Rowan could again decide to interfere.
Predicted Winner: The Wyatt Sicks (Joe Gacy & Dexter Lumis)
