Bengaluru, August 16: WWE’s Clash at the Castle 2022 card is getting stacked with each passing week. Following this week’s Raw, an originally planned Summerslam match has been added to the WWE Network Specials set for next month.
The returning Riddle will take on top Raw Superstar Seth “Freakin’” Rollins at Clash at the Castle in a much-anticipated matchup. No stipulation has been announced for the matchup.
Over on Raw, Riddle made his return after the beatdown from Rollins at Summerslam and informed us that he has been cleared to return and the next time he sees Rollins – it’ll be a battle.
Rollins wasn’t intimidated by those words as Riddle ran out to the ring to attack him. A brawl broke out between the two superstars through the crowd and WWE Officials had to appear to break things up.
Afterward, in a backstage interview, Riddle challenged Seth Rollins to a match at Clash At The Castle. Rollins never accepted the match but it has now been officially added to the match card of the event.
