Detailed Look
World Heavyweight Championship Fatal 4-Way
Seth Rollins defends his crown against CM Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight in a match with no friends, no allies, and pure chaos guaranteed. Punk tried to unite the locker room against Rollins, but Uso shattered that idea with a superkick on Raw. With Rollins thriving on chaos, the odds are stacked for one of the most unpredictable matches of 2025.
John Cena vs. Logan Paul
All eyes are on Cena’s farewell run as he prepares to face The Maverick Logan Paul. Cena has warned Paul to bring his absolute best or risk being exposed under the Paris lights. Paul, as polarizing as he is, insists he’s the future of WWE and plans to spoil Cena’s final European hurrah. It’s passion versus influence — and possibly Cena’s last chance to prove why he’s still The Greatest of All Time.
Women’s Intercontinental Championship Match
The Man Becky Lynch defends against Hall of Famer Nikki Bella in a true battle of eras. Bella is chasing her first singles championship in over a decade, while Becky is determined to prove that generational labels don’t matter — she’s the greatest to ever lace up a pair of boots. Expect pride, legacy, and high drama.
WWE Tag Team Championship Match
The Wyatt Sicks (Dexter Lumis & Joe Gacy) defend their eerie dominance against The Street Profits. Ford and Dawkins earned this rematch on SmackDown, but the looming shadow of Bo Dallas’ warning has the Profits questioning if their brotherhood can withstand the mind games.
Roman Reigns vs. Bronson Reed
Once the unbeatable Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns looks to reclaim his aura against Big Bronson Reed, the man who stole his spotlight. Reed calls himself the “Tribal Thief” after dismantling Reigns, but Paris may be the place where Roman begins to write a redemption story.
Sheamus vs. Rusev – Good Ol’ Fashioned Donnybrook Match
Two warriors, one fight: The Celtic Warrior Sheamus squares off against The Bulgarian Brute Rusev in a brutal no-rules clash. Their rivalry reignites with both men promising punishment, and Paris is bracing for a brawl that could steal the show.
🗣️ Wrestling.news | Backstage Take
Clash in Paris isn’t just another PLE — it’s a statement event. WWE is closing the Peacock era in style, giving Paris its first stadium-level show while pushing forward into the ESPN era. Cena’s clash with Logan Paul is more than a retirement match; it’s symbolic of the shift from legends to influencers, old guard to new guard. Meanwhile, the Fatal 4-Way has the chance to reshape Raw’s title scene, and Becky vs. Nikki is a generational clash fans never thought they’d see on this stage. Add in Roman’s redemption arc and the brutality of Sheamus vs. Rusev, and Paris may very well deliver one of WWE’s most memorable international events ever.
