WWE Clash in Paris 2025 Results: Rollins Retains, Cena Shines, Reigns Stretchered Out

By Erick Padilla – August 31, 2025

WWE made history on Sunday night, staging its first-ever Premium Live Event from France as Clash in Paris emanated from the Paris La Défense Arena. With six matches on the card, the show delivered high drama, strong in-ring work, and storyline developments that will shape the coming months.

Below is a full breakdown of the results and highlights.

Roman Reigns def. Bronson Reed

The show opened with Roman Reigns scoring a hard-fought win over Bronson Reed. Reigns weathered Reed’s power offense before connecting with a Superman Punch, a second-rope Samoan Drop, and finally a spear to secure the victory.

The post-match angle, however, stole the spotlight. Reigns applied a guillotine choke to longtime advisor Paul Heyman, seemingly ending their alliance. Immediately after, Bron Breakker and Reed launched a vicious attack that left Reigns stretchered out of the arena. The shocking ambush raises questions about Reigns’ status moving forward.

WWE Tag Team Championship: The Wyatt Sicks (c) def. Street Profits

The Wyatt Sicks continued their dominant run with another chaotic title defense. Dexter Lumis and Joe Gacy retained against the Street Profits, aided by interference from Uncle Howdy and other stablemates.

While the champions remain strong, the bigger story may be the Profits. Miscommunication between Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins hinted at possible dissension within the popular tag team.

WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship: Becky Lynch (c) def. Nikki Bella

Becky Lynch held onto her title with a win over Nikki Bella in a scrappy encounter. Bella controlled portions of the match with power moves, but Lynch countered late and scored the victory with a backslide.

Though not the flashiest bout of the night, it further cemented Lynch’s reign while allowing Bella to showcase she can still compete at a high level.

Donnybrook Match: Rusev def. Sheamus

Rusev and Sheamus delivered exactly what was expected — a bruising, physical brawl. The Donnybrook stipulation meant weapons were in play, and both men took advantage. Sheamus hit White Noise off a stack of beer barrels through a table, but Rusev absorbed the punishment and rallied back for the pinfall victory.

A hard-hitting match that earned strong reactions from the Paris crowd, this could be the start of a longer program between the two veterans.

John Cena def. Logan Paul

In perhaps the match of the night, John Cena defeated Logan Paul in what may have been one of the standout performances of his farewell run. Cena pulled out several surprising maneuvers, including a Code Red and a Styles Clash, while Paul once again showcased his ability to deliver on a big stage.

The finishing stretch saw Cena hit multiple Attitude Adjustments to score the win. For the Paris crowd, it was a memorable chance to see Cena shine one more time on a global stage.

World Heavyweight Championship Fatal Four-Way: Seth Rollins (c) def. CM Punk, LA Knight, and Jey Uso

The main event saw Seth Rollins retain his World Heavyweight Championship in a wild Fatal Four-Way. All four competitors had moments of control, but the ending will be talked about for weeks.

With The Vision barred from ringside, it was Rollins’ wife Becky Lynch who made the difference. She delivered a low blow to CM Punk, allowing Rollins to hit a curb stomp on a steel chair to retain his title.

The controversial finish protects Punk while continuing Rollins’ reign in dramatic fashion.

Overall Impression

Clash in Paris delivered on spectacle, strong crowd reactions, and storyline progression.

• Roman Reigns’ post-match stretcher job was the most dramatic moment of the night and could signal time away for The Tribal Chief.

• John Cena vs. Logan Paul stood out as a potential Match of the Year candidate.

• Seth Rollins’ controversial win ensures his World Heavyweight Championship story remains one of WWE’s central narratives heading into the fall.

For WWE’s first Premium Live Event in Paris, the company succeeded in making it feel both historic and newsworthy.
