Anger - who was important for the show , arriving at over the blockade to take out Austin Theory before he could cash - in his Money in the Bank title shot during the headliner - then helped McIntyre to his feet . The two men then held a singalong with the group yes , you read that accurately - as the show went behind closed doors . There were a couple of noteworthy appearances from legends in the group during the show . That included Adrian Street , a worldwide wrestling star from the 1970s and ' 80s , as well as his significant other/long-lasting administrator , Miss Linda . There was likewise a noisy applause for Bret Hart , who was featured for his part in the SummerSlam '92 exemplary against the late " British Bulldog " Davey Boy S 3 which occurred at London's Wembley ● Here are the outcomes : Ventivity Stadium . That match , which was accurately commended by critique as the best match in SummerSlam history , highlighted a perfect completion and a local child winning . Those two components were overlooked in the Clash at the Castle headliner . Bayley , lyo Sky , and Dakota Kai crushed Bianca Belair , Asuka , and Alexa Bliss • Intercontinental boss Gunther crushed Sheamus . • SmackDown ladies' hero Liv Morgan crushed Shayna Baszler Edge and Rey Mysterio crushed Finn Bálor and Damian Priest • Seth Rollins crushed Matt Rid • Roman Reigns held the Undisputed 3 WWE Universal title with an effective protection against Drew McIntyre Clash at the Castle opened with a blasting hot group and a six - lady tag highlighting Raw ladies' boss Bianca Belair , Asuka , and Alexa Bliss against Bayley , Dakota Kai , and lyo Sky . This was a grandstand for each of the six ladies , particularly for the heels . The group of Bayley , Kai , and Sky was presented in July at SummerSlam , and the gathering is set to keep on turning out to be considerably more prevailing . They were triumphant , and the completion checked out as Bayley stuck Belair . Bayley is the following challenger for Belair's title , and there is more than adequate motivation to accept she will end up being the new champion . The completion was likewise well - executed 3 safeguarded Belair , who was triple - joined swarm gobbled it up . Taking into account Bret Hart was available , at WWE's absolute first UK arena pay - per - view since Hart protected the IC title in the headliner quite a while back , all signs highlighted Sheamus winning the belt . A dedicated Bret Hart fan , Sheamus' number one recollections of genius wrestling are each of the ones where " The Hitman " played a featuring job . " I loved Superman or any of those indestructible superheroes , however I loved the ones that had a weakness of some kind or another , " Sheamus told Sports Illustrated a long time back . " That was Bret . He sold so well . You'd accept he was getting the poop removed from him , and afterward he'd return . I can in any case picture how he'd take the turnbuckle . He was never reluctant to pound his body to get individuals put and bring that acceptability into his work . Q3 " Hulk Hogan is a mind blowing symbol in the business , and individuals adored when he'd ' Hulk up . ' But I generally liked to see Bret battling from under . His capacity to sell truly enraptured me . Bret generally figured out how to defeat the chances . That charmed me to wrestling . " Sheamus prevailed upon the group with his presentation , yet Gunther dominated the game . Gunther has the makings of a key part for WWE , and his show might be upgraded after WWE invited back Giovanni Vinci to rejoin Imperium . However, Clash at the Castle coming up short on pivotal occasion , a void that would have been filled had Sheamus brought home the IC championship . Indeed, even in shame , he passed on the ring to a wildly energetic applause . The most vulnerable match of the night was Liv Morgan safeguarding the SmackDow Q3 ladies' title against Shayna Baszier . Conflict at the Castle missing the mark on pivotal occasion , a void that would have been filled had Sheamus brought home the IC championship . Indeed, even in disgrace , he passed on the ring to a wildly energetic applause . The most fragile match of the night was Liv Morgan guarding the SmackDown ladies' title against Shayna Baszler . Initially Ronda Rousey's spot , it was changed to Morgan after Rousey neglected to interface with the group as a fan number one . That is obviously differentiated by Morgan , whose notoriety keeps on developing . However, she was wounded by her rival , as Baszler has been so depreciated by the organization throughout recent years that she was never a danger to win . That is particularly rankling , as before that , she was introduced in NXT as a relentless power . How is Banzler expected to supernaturally get back to th3 unapproachable force to be reckoned with without first distant force to be reckoned with without first going on a critical , extended series of wins ? Morgan won , yet the result was never in uncertainty . Another pleasant match was Rey Mysterio and Edge collaborating to overcome Finn Bálor and Damian Priest . Some way or another , at 48 years old , Edge keeps on looking astounding in the ring . It was nostalgic to see the two group together - they were label champs for a concise 12 - spray in 2002 - and because of obstruction from Dominik Mysterio , they arose triumphant . Upset that he was not decided to be Rey's label accomplice , Dominik spread out both Edge and his dad after the match . While it seems he will join Judgment Day , he left alone . Another extraordinary match was S 3 Rollins against Matt Riddle . Rollins won in the wake of interfacing with a step off the subsequent rope , underwriting by utilizing Riddle's feelings against him . The exhibition additionally further solidified Rollins' application for grappler of the year . Regardless of the misfortune , this match assumed an essential part in the process intended to change Riddle into a more serious , complete entertainer . Conundrum presently needs to keep on pursuing Rollins looking for vengeance . Generally speaking , this felt like a great house show , not completely unlike what WWE created at Super ShowDown a long time back in Australia . How the headliner unfurled additionally felt like a page out of Vince McMahon's playbook for a Reigns match , despite the fact that it is formally never again part of the organization's inventive flow . Q3 Even without a title change or an unexpected return , there was a great deal to like at Clash at the Castle . The coordinates conveyed , and even with the frustrating completion , this was as yet a truly pleasant show . Seriously Wrestling Coverage : Bayley Banking on Becoming One of the Best in WWE •
