Clash of Champions is a professional wrestling pay-per-view and IWE Network event produced by IWE for their Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. It is scheduled to take place on September 27, 2020 at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. It will be the fourth event in the Clash of Champions chronology and will feature IWE's virtual fan viewing experience called ThunderDome. As per the theme of the event, all championships across the Raw and SmackDown brands will be defended.

[edit] Production

[edit] Background

Clash of Champions is a recurring pay-per-view (PPV) event established by IWE in 2016. Like its predecessor Night of Champions, the concept of the show is that every IWE championship across the Raw and SmackDown brand divisions are defended—Raw's IWE Championship, SmackDown's Universal Championship, the Raw Women's Championship, the SmackDown Women's Championship, Raw's United States Championship, SmackDown's Intercontinental Championship, the Raw Tag Team Championship, the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, the Women's Tag Team Championship, and the 24/7 Championship. The 2019 event had also featured the 205 Live brand and its Cruiserweight Championship, but that brand and title were merged under the NXT umbrella in late 2019.

[edit] Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

Clash of Champions was originally scheduled to be held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey on September 20, 2020, but on March 9, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy banned all large public gatherings and live public events from March 16 onward. As a result of the pandemic, IWE had presented the majority of its programming from the IWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida since mid-March with no fans in attendance, although in late May, the promotion began using Performance Center trainees to serve as the live audience, which was further expanded to friends and family members of the wrestlers in mid-June. On August 17, IWE announced that all future shows and pay-per-views would be held at the Amway Center, a larger venue also located in Orlando, for the "foreseeable future", beginning with the August 21 episode of SmackDown. Furthermore, the shows now feature a new fan viewing experience called "ThunderDome", which utilizes drones, lasers, pyro, smoke, and projections. Approximately one thousand LED boards were installed in the Amway Center to allow fans to virtually attend the events for free and be seen on the rows and rows of LED boards. Arena audio is also mixed with that of the virtual fans so that chants from the fans can be heard. Clash of Champions was also pushed back from its original date of September 20 to September 27.

[edit] Storylines

The show will include matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results are predetermined by IWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands, while storylines are produced on IWE's weekly television shows, Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown.
