WWE is reportedly set to host a new premium live event, Clash in Paris, in France on August 31. Last year, WWE delivered an electrifying show in Lyon called Backlash. The show witnessed one of the most electrifying crowds, creating unforgettable moments.
In 2024, WWE expanded its global reach by hosting international premium live events in France, Australia, Scotland, Canada, Germany, and Saudi Arabia. Now, the promotion is preparing for another major premium live event in France.
A few weeks ago, WWE President Nick Khan confirmed during a visit to Las Vegas that Paris would host a premium live event this year. Although he did not disclose the event’s name, he assured that plans were in place.
WrestleVotes recently shared on X, formerly Twitter, that WWE is about to announce a new premium live event called Clash in Paris. It will take place on Sunday, August 31, at Paris La Défense Arena.
