WWE announced that the Clash at the Castle Premium Live Event, which will be taking place on June 15th this year and there are a few matches confirmed for the event and this includes Piper Niven facing off against Bayley for the WWE Women’s Championship. Niven has now confirmed she approached Triple H to compete on the show.
Piper Niven has constantly pursued Bayley for the past month now which resulted in her getting a title shot at Clash at The Castle. Naturally, fans felt Niven more than deserved this title shot.
During a conversation with Denise Salcedo, Niven shared her journey to secure a spot on the Clash at the Castle card and revealed that she personally approached Triple H to compete at the Premium Live Event as she was anxious about not having a match.
“I knew Clash at the Castle was happening, but I didn’t hear anything, no whispers on any matches or anything like that, and I was like, ‘I need to be on that card’.
“And honestly, I jazzed myself up for weeks, you can ask Chelsea – Chelsea’s my hype woman on-screen and off-screen, she helps build my confidence because sometimes I’m not the most confident.
“She was backstage with me, and I was like, ‘Okay I think today’s the day, I think I’m gonna ask’. She’s like, ‘Yeah you’ve got this, go on, ask him, you should be on that show’.
“I was like, ‘Okay, cool, cool, cool’. And I walked up to Triple H and I went, ‘I’m here to shoot my shot’, and he just went, ‘Let me guess, it’s about Clash’, and I went, ‘Yeah’. And he went, ‘We’re working on it’.
“I was like, ‘Oh this went well, okay great, thanks’. I had a monologue prepared, like, ‘I deserve this because X, Y, Z’, and it was just, ‘Yeah we’re working on it’.”
We will have to wait and see how Bayley will fare against Piper Niven at Clash at The Castle on June 15th as it will definitely be her biggest challenge yet as the WWE Women’s Champion.
