The next WWE PPV event after Money in the Bank will be taking place in Saudi Arabia. The event will be called ‘WWE Super Showdown’ and will be taking place on June 7th.
WWE has now confirmed a new Title match for the card.
It will be ‘Demon’ Finn Balor vs Andrade for the Intercontinental Championship. Here is what WWE posted on their website:
Intercontinental Champion “The Demon” Finn Bálor vs. Andrade
At WWE Super ShowDown, the reemergence of The Demon could spell doom for Andrade’s “tranquillo” tactic.
The vestiges from their intensifying conflict have paved the way for this sure-to-be thrilling Intercontinental Championship clash. This rivalry was set ablaze when both Superstars crossed paths during the Superstar Shake-up, with Andrade scoring an upset victory over his rival on Raw and Finn Bálor defeating the former NXT Champion on SmackDown LIVE. Just five days before WWE Money in the Bank, Andrade pinned The Extraordinary Man for a second time during a thrilling Fatal 4-Way Match that also included Randy Orton and Ali.
Since then, the two SmackDown LIVE Superstars have been at each other’s necks. Where Andrade seeks to dethrone the reigning Intercontinental Champion, Bálor is out to prove his determined rival is barking up the wrong tree. While Andrade is known for pushing his opponents to the edge, how will his killer instinct fare against the demonic force of Bálor’s dark entity?
Tune in when WWE Super ShowDown streams live on the award-winning WWE Network on Friday, June 7, at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT.
