The whole point of Clash of Champions is that every champion must defend their title. The chances of a title changing hands are quite high. Multi-man matches such as the triple threat for the US Championship and the fatal four-way tag team match almost guarantee a change in champions.

I believe that we’re going to see new champions come Sunday. Who do I believe will be a champion after Clash of Champions?

United States Champion: Baron Corbin

The whole point of booking a Triple Threat is so that the champion can lose their title without being pinned. However, I think that this Sunday, Corbin retains, but not by pinning Bobby Roode. I’m not a betting man, but I’d bet a considerable sum on Dolph Ziggler eating the pin.

It’s far too early to take the title off Baron Corbin. He’s found his groove as a character and as a champion. To take it away from him now would a a tad odd, to say the least. Besides, a babyface chasing the title is a much more compelling tale. A chase would provide Bobby Roode with some character other than “glorious is my word of the day.”

The strange addition of Ziggler to the match pretty much means he’s there to protect the loser. It’s sad, but it’s true. Corbin is pinning Ziggler, and this extends the feud to at least another month.

Smackdown Women’s Champion: Carmella

Carmella’s been holding the Money in the Bank contract for an awful long time. It’s not unlikely that she cashes in. In fact, I think it’s quite likely. The lumberjack match stipulation pretty much ensures that the Riott Squad will be involved in the match at Clash of Champions. Should Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan, and Sarah Logan interrupt the match and decimate both Charlotte and Natalya, who should pick the bones but Ms. Money in the Bank herself?

This frees up Charlotte to team up with Naomi to face the growing threat that is the Riott Squad. This leaves a possible dearth of challengers for Carmella should she become champion, but it is what it is. The absence of Becky Lynch is affecting the division, but I honestly believe Carmella is walking away from Boston with the Smackdown Women’s Championship.

There is a lot of speculation that Carmella is going to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship sooner or later as the company is building towards her as the champion.

Dave Meltzer indicated in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that her loss on television recently is an indication of just that.

Meltzer wrote, “Lynch beat Carmella in 2:57 with the disarmer. What’s so cool about WWE booking is that every Carmella loss means that she’s one step closer to cashing in and winning the title.”

Typically when a Money in the Bank contract holder loses a series of matches, WWE books them to cash in shortly after.

While speaking to TMZ Sports, Chris Jericho predicted that he doesn’t believe Conor McGregor would be joining WWE anytime soon if Conor wanted to work with the company.

“I don’t think he’s gonna join in two years, not now with all the money he made,” said Jericho. “But it could happen at some point. He’s got the personality for it, that’s for sure.”

Jericho also believes that the money offered from WWE will play a major factor in the UFC Fighter coming to the company.

“It depends on how much money he can generate, which I think would be a lot. He just made $100 million, so he’s not coming in for peanuts, right?”

Even though there are reports of backstage heat with Baron Corbon over his recent usage of Twitter, that hasn’t stopped him from using the Twitter Machine.

Corbin took to his Twitter account today to tweet John Cena to let him know where he stands with the female fan that flipped Cena off after costing Corbin his Money in the Bank cash-in on Tuesday’s episode of SmackDown Live:

It appears that WWE has banned yet another word from being used on WWE programming.

Bryan Alvarez mentioned on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Live that the company is no longer using the term “Money in the Bank Briefcase.” Moving forward announcers and talent will refer to the briefcase as the “Money in the Bank contract.”

As seen on Tuesday’s episode of SmackDown Live, Daniel Bryan suspended James Ellsworth for 30 days and fined him $10,000 for his involvement in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder matches. He also added that if he violates the terms, Carmella will be stripped of her MITB briefcase.

Carmella and Ellsworth both took to Twitter and made the following remarks in regards to the suspension:

I won my #MITB contract TWICE. @WWEDanielBryan cannot strip me of it AGAIN. I earned it fair & square. #SDLive

After their teased angle during the Money in the Bank ladder match a couple weeks back, it’s being speculated that Nakamura will face AJ Styles at this year’s SummerSlam event. Bryan Alvarez discussed the possibilities of this match taking place when a listener called in asking about it going down.

Alvarez said, “I think that is the match. I would say with some degree of confidence that you’re gonna see Styles and Nakamura against each other at SummerSlam. That was the whole idea behind the tease they did at the Money In The Bank show.”

Other matches rumored for the event include Cena vs. Jinder Mahal and Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns. We will keep you updated if we hear of any other matches that are expected to be added to the card.
