Intercontinental Title Match Set For WWE SmackDown Season Premiere On 10/7
Gunther and Sheamus will run it back on the season premiere of SmackDown.
Gunther and Sheamus had a critically acclaimed match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at Clash at the Castle. On that night, Sheamus failed to become a WWE Grand Slam Champion, but he will get another shot at it on October 7 during the season premiere of Friday Night SmackDown.
The explosive season premiere of Friday Night SmackDown on Oct. 7 will feature a huge title showdown!
Intercontinental Champion Gunther will once again go to war with Sheamus in a highly-anticipated WWE Clash at the Castle title rematch!
The two hard-hitting Europeans fought tooth-and-nail in their historic Premium Live Event matchup. Though The Celtic Warrior did not capture the gold, the incredible ovation he received from the crowd in Cardiff, Wales was a testament to his gritty effort. Now, the WWE Universe and the locker room can’t wait to see the carnage that unfolds in the sequel.
The X-factor of the match will likely be the potential impact of The Brawling Brutes and Imperium. All parties love a good fight, and time will tell if there will be anything left of the blue brand when all is said and done.
