UPDATE x 2: As previously reported here on eWrestlingNews.com, the WWE pay-per-view schedule will be changing following the WWE Draft and Brand Split, with more shows being added.
Those reports are now confirmed as Sky Italy is now advertising the same pay-per-view schedule through the end of 2016. The schedule will be the following:
* WWE SummerSlam, August 21st in Brooklyn (both brands)
* WWE Backlash, September 11th in Richmond (SmackDown event/ WWE Network exclusive)
* WWE Clash of the Champions, September 25th in Indianapolis (RAW event)
* WWE No Mercy, October 9th in Sacramento (SmackDown event)
* WWE Hell In a Cell, October 30th in Boston (RAW event)
* WWE Survivor Series, November 20th in Toronto (both brands)
* WWE TLC, December 4th in Dallas (SmackDown event)
* WWE Roadblock, December 18th in Pittsburgh (RAW event)
UPDATE: Ticketmaster.com is now advertising a “WWE Clash of the Champions” pay-per-view event for September 25th in Indianapolis, Indiana. Of course, “Clash of Champions” is the name of a former WCW show so it appears to be official – WWE Night of Champions will now be called Clash of the Champions. It should be noted that the Tickermaster.com link is still using the Night of Champions logo, likely because no logo for “Clash of Champions” has been released as of this writing.
As previously reported here on eWrestlingNews.com, WWE filed a trademark request for Clash of Champions several weeks ago.
ORIGINAL: There is a photo going around the internet that reportedly shows the WWE pay-per-view schedule following the upcoming Brand Split. A Reddit user named “Wrestling Leaker” posted the photo on Wednesday and claims it’s the real deal. For what it’s worth, the user has provided spoilers in the past. It is not the same guy who broke the Samoa Joe/NXT debut, Shane McMahon’s return and Zack Ryder’s IC Title win at WrestleMania 32 stories though.
Of course, the schedule is not confirmed at this point, but it says the WWE Night of Champions PPV will become WWE Clash of Champions. As previously reported here on eWrestlingNews.com, WWE filed a new trademark for “Clash of Champion” within the past few weeks.
You can see the complete list below, which has two pay-per-view events in each month that there is not a dual-brand pay-per-view (SummerSlam and Survivor Series).
* WWE SummerSlam – August 21st in Brooklyn, 7pm ET start time, both brands
* WWE Backlash, September 11th in Richmond, 8pm ET start time, SmackDown event, WWE Network exclusive
* WWE Clash of the Champions, September 25th in Indianapolis, 8pm ET start time, RAW event
* WWE No Mercy, October 9th in Sacramento, 8pm ET start time, SmackDown event
* WWE Hell In a Cell, October 30th in Boston, 8pm ET start time, RAW event
* WWE Survivor Series, November 20th in Toronto, 7pm ET start time, both brands
* WWE TLC, December 4th in Dallas, 8pm ET start time, SmackDown event
* WWE Roadblock, December 18th in Pittsburgh, 8pm ET start time, RAW event
