The WWE Clash of Champions takes place Sunday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Clash of Champions will be the first WWE pay-per-view event exclusive to the Raw brand since the WWE brand separation draft on July 19, and every championship on Monday Night Raw will be on the line.Clash of Champions will be the sixth WWE pay-per-view event to take place in Indianapolis, and the fourth to be held at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The last pay-per-event held in Indianapolis was Survivor Series 2012 -- the night The Shield made their debut.This is the first instance of a pay-per-view of any kind by this name since August 1997 in WCW. There are a lot of stats to dig into between the champions and challengers competing Sunday night and the events history, and that provides us the perfect opportunity to break things down by the numbers.(c) -- indicates defending championWWE Universal Championship: Kevin Owens (c) vs. Seth RollinsClash of Champions will be the first one-on-one match between?Kevin Owens?and?Seth Rollins?since they met in Ring of Honor in 2010 (as Kevin Steen and Tyler Black).This match will be the first time that the WWE Universal Championship has been defended. After?Finn Bálor?became the inaugural champion at SummerSlam in August, he was forced to vacate the title one night later?due to?injury.Owens won the WWE Universal Championship just 15 months after making his WWE in-ring debut (Elimination Chamber on May 31, 2015). Owens is the third former NXT champion to go on to win a WWE world title. The other two are Rollins and Bálor.Clash of Champions will be Owens 10th pay-per-view match of 2016 -- second-most in WWE (Dean Ambrose?has had 11). However, Owens is just 1-4 in pay-per-view title matches this year -- tied for the second-most such losses in WWE (Dolph Ziggler has five).Rollins looks to become the first WWE superstar to win both the WWE World Championship and WWE Universal Championship. A win over Owens would also continue the recent trend of short-lived world title reigns; prior to Owens and?AJ Styles current championship runs, each of the last eight world title reigns have lasted less than 100 days. In fact, the last WWE superstar to hold a world title for more?than 100 days was Rollins, whose 220-day reign as WWE world champion was cut short due to a knee injury.This will be Rollins 15th consecutive pay-per-view match that has been for a championship. His last nontitle pay-per-view match came at WrestleMania 31, when he lost to?Randy Orton.Rollins has lost his last three pay-per-view matches, tied for the longest losing streak of his career. His last win came at Money in the Bank when he defeated?Roman Reigns?for the WWE World?Championship, right before Ambrose cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase and defeated Rollins for his newly won title.WWE United States Championship: Rusev (c) vs. Roman ReignsThe United States Championship was defended 12 times at Clash of the Champions events in NWA and WCW. The title changed hands just three times:Rick Rude defeated Sting for the United States Championship at Clash of the Champions XVII in 1991.Ricky Steamboat defeated Steve Austin for the title at Clash of the Champions XXVIII in 1994.Former Chicago Bear Steve McMichael won the title from Jeff Jarrett at Clash of the Champions XXXV in 1997 -- the final Clash of the Champions event in WCW.This match features the winner and runner-up of the 2015 Royal Rumble match (Reigns last eliminated?Rusev?to win).Clash of Champions will be Rusevs 10th televised title defense since winning the United States Championship at Extreme Rules in May. On Sunday, Rusev will have been champion for 126 days -- the longest reign since?John Cena?held the title for 147 days in 2015.Rusev won his last four pay-per-view matches -- the last three by submission in under 10 minutes. His last pay-per-view loss was in the Royal Rumble match in January.Reigns was recently named the No. 1 wrestler in the world in Pro Wrestling Illustrateds annual PWI 500. Clash of Champions will be Roman Reigns first career televised United States Championship match.This will be Reigns 40th pay-per-view match since 2013. Reigns and his former Shield partners (Rollins and Ambrose) have been featured more on WWE pay-per-view events in the last four years than any other WWE superstar.Raw Womens Championship: Charlotte (c) vs. Sasha Banks vs. BayleyWhile?Charlotte,?Sasha Banks?and?Bayley?have faced off numerous times in one-on-one and tag team matches in both WWE and NXT, along with a Fatal 4-Way in NXT that also included?SmackDown?womens?champion?Becky Lynch, these three women have never met in a triple-threat match.Clash of Champions will be Charlottes first title defense since winning back the Raw Womens Championship from Banks at SummerSlam.Charlotte is 12-0 all time in singles matches at WWE pay-per-view events, the longest unbeaten streak in such matches to begin a career in WWE history.Charlotte is 11-0 all time in pay-per-view title matches. Eight of those victories came via submission with the figure-eight leg lock. Charlotte is 8-1 overall in pay-per-view matches in 2016, including her victory at the WWE Network special Roadblock. That is the most such wins in the WWE, male or female.Banks is one of three women who have won both the NXT Womens Championship and the top WWE Womens Championship. Charlotte and?Paige?(who won the Divas championship) are the others.Banks is seeking her third pay-per-view victory of the year, which would tie?Natalya?for second-most among WWE women. Each of Banks two wins came in tag team matches; shes 0-2 in singles pay-per-view matches in 2016.This will be Bayleys first shot at the WWE womens championship. She did have a WWE Divas Championship match during her time in NXT; she lost that match to AJ Lee on July 11, 2013.Clash of Champions will be Bayleys second WWE pay-per-view match. At Battleground on July 24, she was Banks surprise tag team partner and they defeated Charlotte and?Dana Brooke.Raw Tag Team Championship: The New Day (c) vs. Gallows & AndersonWWE tag team titles have changed hands three times in the state of Indiana, including two instances in Indianapolis.On Aug. 28, 1994, Diesel and Shawn Michaels defeated The Headshrinkers at an untelevised event in Indianapolis.On May 26, 1997, Steve Austin and Shawn Michaels defeated The British Bulldog and Owen Hart on Monday Night Raw in Evansville.On Nov. 15, 2004, Eugene and William Regal won a triple-threat elimination match on Monday Night Raw at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis -- the site of Sundays Clash of Champions event.At Clash of Champions,?The New Day?will have been WWE tag team champions for 399 days -- the second-longest tag title reign in WWE history and the longest reign since the current tag titles were introduced in?2002. Only Demolition (Ax and Smash) have held a tag team championship longer.Clash of Champions will be the 16th pay-per-view title match since the start of 2015 for both?Big E?and?Kofi Kingston. Only Rollins (17, including his match on Sunday) has more such matches during?that?span.Clash of Champions will be?The Clubs?third opportunity at the Raw tag team championships. Most recently, they defeated The New Day at SummerSlam by disqualification (titles cannot change hands via DQ?or count-out).During their time with New Japan Pro Wrestling,?Luke Gallows?&?Karl Anderson?won the IWGP heavyweight tag team championships on three different occasions. They are looking to become the third tag team?in?history to win both the IWGP and WWE tag team titles (joining the Steiner Brothers and?Dudley Boyz).WWE Cruiserweight Championship: TJ Perkins (c) vs. Brian KendrickThis will be the first Cruiserweight Championship match in WWE in over nine years. The title was retired in 2007, with Hornswoggle the last to hold the title in that lineage. The championship was reintroduced on Sept. 14 at the conclusion of the first-ever WWE Cruiserweight Classic tournament; it stands as a brand-new title with a new lineage.TJ Perkins?was the winner of the WWE Cruiserweight Classic, a 32-man tournament featuring superstars from around the world. After winning the final against?Gran Metalik?on Sept. 14, Perkins was awarded the?WWE Cruiserweight Championship. Clash of Champions will be Perkins first televised appearance and match on the WWE main roster.Brian Kendrick?also competed in the Cruiserweight Classic, losing in the quarterfinals to Kota Ibushi. The tournament was his first appearance in WWE since July 27, 2009.Clash of Champions will be Kendricks 13th career WWE pay-per-view match and first since the 2009 Royal Rumble match. It will be his first career one-on-one match at a WWE pay-per-view. This will not be Kendricks first Cruiserweight Championship match at a pay-per-view event, however; at No Way Out in 2006, he competed in a nine-man match for the title, ultimately won by The Hurricane.Match 7 of Best-of-7 Series: Sheamus vs. CesaroThis will be the final match of a best-of-seven series between?Sheamus?and?Cesaro, with the winner promised a future championship opportunity. Sheamus jumped out to a 3-0 series lead, but Cesaro tied?the?series with three consecutive wins.Clash of Champions will be the fourth pay-per-view event where Sheamus and Cesaro have met one-on-one. Sheamus won each of the previous three meetings.Cesaro has not won a pay-per-view match since returning from a shoulder injury the night after WrestleMania 32 (0-4) -- including the loss to Sheamus during the SummerSlam pre-show.Chris Jericho vs. Sami ZaynClash of Champions will be the fourth one-on-one meeting between?Chris Jericho?and?Sami Zayn, but the first to take place at a pay-per-view event. Jericho won two of the first three meetings, but Zayn won the?most?recent bout on the July 5 episode of SmackDown.Jericho and Zayn have shared the ring twice at pay-per-view events. They both participated in the 2016 Royal Rumble match and the 2016 Money in the Bank match.Jericho is the only WWE superstar on the card who competed at a WCW Clash of the Champions event. On Jan. 21, 1997, Jericho teamed with Super Calo and Chavo Guerrero to defeat Konnan, La Parka and Mr. JL in a six-man tag team match. Also, on Aug. 21, 1997, at the final Clash of the Champions event held in WCW, Jericho defeated Eddie Guerrero to retain the WCW Cruiserweight Championship.Jericho is looking for his fourth pay-per-view victory of 2016 (including his win at the WWE Network special Roadblock). That would be his most such wins in a calendar year since 2009, when he won nine times.Jericho has lost each of his last three non-tag team pay-per-view matches, including the Money in the Bank ladder match that Zayn was also a part of. Jerichos last pay-per-view singles victory came at WrestleMania 32 against Styles.After losing each of his first five WWE pay-per-view matches, Zayn has won each of his last two such bouts.

LAS VEGAS -- Heading into SuperContest Weekend at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, the famed pro football handicapping contest is once again on a record pace.The SuperContest drew 1,727 entries last year at $1,500 apiece for a record purse in excess of $2.5 million and a first-place prize of $906,675, as the contest increased for the sixth straight year. There were concerns that the SuperContests growth could be slowed this year when the Westgate announced an 8 percent administrative fee that would be taken out of the prize pool to cover costs of running the contest, but that hasnt happened yet.At this time last year (heading into the SuperContest Weekend of Friday and Saturday, Aug. 28-29, 2015), there were 694 entries at the close of business on Thursday, Aug. 27.This years entries were at 695 as of this past Monday night and were into the 760s on Wednesday afternoon. With more than 30 hours to go until the close of business on Thursday night, the number should reach into the mid-800s. (Ill post an update in the comments section below.)During the first few weeks since we started taking signups on July 1, we were around 60 to 100 ahead of last year and thought that might slow down due to the 8 percent takeout, said Jay Kornegay, vice president of race & sports book operations at the Westgate, But then we saw a lot of signups last weekend and another spike this week. It looks like were going to be closer to 170 ahead going into our biggest weekend.The SuperContest Weekend, in its fifth year, features a free handicapping seminar at 6 p.m. PT Friday (the cocktail reception starts at 5 p.m.) in The Pavilion ballroom at the Westgate, a golf outing across the street on Saturday afternoon at the Las Vegas Country Club and prize drawings back in The Pavilion at 7:30 p.m. with at least six $1,500 SuperContest entries being given away as well as dozens of other prizes such as dinners, shows, sports memorabilia, etc.Fridays seminars will include two college football panels and one NFL panel with Brian Blessing acting as emcee. The 6 p.m. college football panel will include Chris Fallica of ESPNs College Gameday (and an ESPN Chalk contributor) along with Ken Thomson , Joe Lisi and moderator Steve Cofield. The 7 p.m. college football panel includes Kenny White, Dave Cokin and Lee Sterling with moderator Scott Spreitzer. The 8:05 p.m. NFL panel includes Marc Lawrence, Bernie Fratto and Rufus Peabody with moderators Gill Alexander and JT The Brick.The winners of the SuperContest Satellite Series on the Gamblino app are scheduled to be honored at 7:55 p.m. The bad news is that the Gamblino app will not be running qualifying tournaments this football season. Kornegay said he hasnt had time to figure out a qualifying tourney for next year.For the uninitiated, here are the SuperContests full rules and regulations.Sunset Station gets in seminar gameLas Vegas casinos have long used seminars to bring football bettors into their sportsbooks (recent examples being held at the Stardust, Ballys, Palace Station and Red Rock since the turn of the century), so its not surprising that another casino doesnt want to let the Westgate have all the fun.The Sunset Station will be holding a pro football seminar at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 30, in the Club Maddrid nightclub, with Blessing pulling double-duty along with race & sports book director Chuck Esposito.dddddddddddd Scheduled speakers include Bruce Marshall of the Gold Sheet, Andy Iskoe, Todd Fuhrman, Fratto and former ESPN handicapper Hammerin Hank Goldberg.More Vegas football contestsWhile the SuperContest is the biggest game in town, there are plenty of other casinos in Vegas also trying to lure customers with their handicapping contests.-- The Friday Football Showdown is back at the Golden Nugget, as previewed in this ESPN Chalk piece. The entry fee is $2,000, as it tries to challenge the SuperContest in the high-end contest space. Players not only pick NFL games against the spread but can also play NFL over/unders as well as NCAA sides and totals. The Nugget was hoping to go from 87 entries last year to around 200 this year, especially due to the fact it still pays back 100 percent of the prize pool.As of Thursday afternoon, there were only 41 entries, but theres expected to be a big increase this weekend with all the contest players in town signing up at the Westgate also wandering over to the other casinos with contests.-- After a two-year hiatus, William Hill has resumed its College Pick Em Contest for NCAA football handicappers. The entry fee is $500 with a limit of three entries per person (past versions of this contest were $250 per entry from 2005-2012 and then $100 in 2013 before it was dropped). Players make 7 plays against the spread (from a list of 25 available games) for 10 weeks starting with the games of Sept. 9-10. The prize pool is guaranteed to be at least $25,000 with 70 percent of entries going to the champion. In addition, theres a $25,000 bonus to the champion if they hit at least 70 percent winners (49 of the possible 70 points). As of Thursday afternoon, there were 36 entrants and again theres expected to be a spike this weekend. Full details are on the William Hill website.-- On the lower end, Wildfire Gaming offers the free College Football Clash with $500 in weekly cash prizes and the season-long champion winning a trip for two to the 2017 Rose Bowl (or a $1,500 cash prize in lieu of the trip). Wildfire Gaming is connected to Station Casinos and its Boarding Pass program, but this contest is just held at the smaller casinos such as Wildfire Rancho, Wildfire Sunset, Wildfire Lake Mead, Wildfire Boulder, Barleys and Wild Wild West.-- Ive long been a big fan of the football contests here in Vegas and believe theyre worth entering for those visiting town, even if for just one weekend. Many are free while others cost about what you might already be spending in office pools back home, but could have much bigger payoffs. Most of these are just picking teams to win, no points involved. The Station Casinos and Boyd Gaming have free contests where you just need to sign up for a free players card. William Hill also has a $25 buy-in Pro Pick Em contest with a $10,000 weekly prize for most winners.One contest we lost this year is Airin It Out at the Aliante in North Las Vegas, as Boyd Gamings purchase of the property is expected to be finalized during the first half of the season.
