This weekend, Cody Rhodes is set to defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against AJ Styles at the highly anticipated Clash at the Castle event in Scotland. Adding a personal touch to the occasion, Rhodes will be accompanied by a very special guest – his mother, Michelle Rubio.
Rhodes took to Instagram to share the news, expressing his excitement: “Mama Rhodes joining me to see Scotland.” This heartfelt announcement has generated buzz among fans, eager to see the dynamic between Rhodes and his mother, who has played a significant role in his wrestling journey.
Michelle Rubio’s presence is not just a sentimental gesture. She was an integral part of Rhodes’ storyline with The Bloodline leading up to WrestleMania 40. Her involvement added emotional depth to the narrative, with The Rock frequently mentioning her in his promos. She also celebrated alongside her son after he triumphed on the second night of WrestleMania 40, marking the completion of his long and arduous journey.
Rhodes’ schedule has been packed in the lead-up to Clash at the Castle. He made a notable appearance on WWE NXT earlier this week before heading to Scotland. Additionally, Rhodes is set to make a special appearance on WWE SmackDown, which will take place at the Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland, just a day before the Premium Live Event at the same venue.
Clash at the Castle promises to be a thrilling spectacle, with multiple championships on the line. Besides Rhodes’ title defense, Drew McIntyre will battle to reclaim the World Heavyweight Championship from Damian Priest. The match is particularly intriguing as Priest will face McIntyre without the support of his Judgment Day comrades.
Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn is scheduled to defend his title against Chad Gable, while WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill will face local favorites Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre. The event will also feature a heated contest between Bayley and Scottish star Piper Niven, with Bayley’s WWE Women’s Championship at stake.
With such a stacked card and the emotional narrative surrounding Cody Rhodes and his mother, Clash at the Castle is shaping up to be an unforgettable event. Fans around the world are eagerly anticipating the showdowns and the surprises that WWE has in store.
