Gunther vs Sheamus Confirmed for WWE Clash At The Castle
This week’s episode on SmackDown Live saw Gunther confirm his next Intercontinental Championship challenger in a brutal fatal-5-way match between Sami Zayn and Happy Corbin. The Irishman defeated happy Corbin to win a big match at the Clash at the Castle pay-per-view in Wales.
It will be the first meeting between Sheamus and Gunther in the squared circle. This is sure to be an intense, physically demanding match. Both wrestlers bring a strong European style to the mainstream. Gunther’s IC title runs have been impressive lately, with the most recent defence against Shinsuke Nagura in a highly-acclaimed main event.
This match will be played in front of a UK audience that is bloodthirsty. We expect both men to go above and beyond to make it memorable for their careers and to add prestige to the Intercontinental Championship.
