Backstage Leaks: Possible Spoilers for WWE Clash in Italy Main Event Matches

Some potential spoilers have emerged on Sunday's WWE Clash in Italy pay-per-view.

Clash in Italy will be held at Inalpi Arena in Turin. After Sunday's show, WWE's next pay-per-view, Night of Champions, will take place on June 27 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Five matches have been announced thus far: Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu for the World Heavyweight Championship, Rhea Ripley vs. Jade Cargill for the WWE Women's Championship, Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther for the Undisputed WWE Championship, Becky Lynch vs. Sol Ruca for the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship and Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi.

Citing sources familiar with WWE's long-term plans, WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful reports (h/t WrestlingNews.co) that Lesnar, Ripley and Reigns are internally viewed as the creative favorites.

This strongly indicates that those three will win their respective matches, though WrestleVotes Radio emphasized that things are subject to change.

Reigns and Ripley won their respective titles at day two of WrestleMania 42. The former defeated CM Punk to win the World Heavyweight Championship, and Ripley dethroned Cargill as the WWE Women's Champion.

Brock Lesnar Will Reportedly Wrestle Beyond Clash in Italy

Lesnar strongly hinted at retirement after losing to Femi at WrestleMania 42. WWE.com even moved him to their alumni section, another indicator that his storied career was over.

But WrestleVotes also reported that Lesnar is scheduled to continue working past Clash in Italy. So, even if he loses to Femi on Sunday, don't expect the future Hall of Famer to ride off into the sunset.
