WWE Announces Which Matches Will Take Place During The First Hour Of Clash In Italy
Initially, there were some doubts regarding which matches would be aired on ESPN, considering every match graphic had a “first hour on ESPN” tagline, which seemed to confuse fans. However, WWE has now officially announced two matches that will take place during the first hour of Clash in Italy.
The first one is Cody’s Undisputed WWE Title defense against Gunther, and the other one is the Women’s Title match between Rhea and Jade.
The full lineup for the show is below:
- Oba Femi vs Brock Lesnar
- Cody Rhodes (c) vs Gunther for the WWE Undisputed Championship
- Rhea Ripley (c) vs Jade Cargill for the WWE Women’s Championship
- Roman Reigns (c) vs Jacob Fatu for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Tribal Combat match

WWE Clash In Italy Doesn’t Feature Any First-Time Matchups
While WWE has done a ton of buildup for this Premium Live Event, there aren’t any first-time matches booked for the show. Aside from Cody vs. Gunther, every other match has taken place this year.
Becky’s match with Sol took place just this past week during Saturday Night’s Main Event, where The Man disqualified herself to retain the Intercontinental Championship.
Brock Lesnar seemingly retired at WrestleMania 42 against Oma Femi, only to return on Raw later for another match. Rhea and Jade also wrestled each other at WrestleMania, and Reigns and Fatu faced each other at Backlash last month.
