Premise[edit]

The show begins with 62 competitors known as "Clashers" which are paired in two, and the winner to take a seat in the 32-seat semi-finalists who qualify for the second round. A wild card contender from a pair of two is electronically selected from among previous losers in the first elimination round. The semi-finalists battle it out among themselves in pairs in the second round. The winner of The Clash receives an exclusive management contract from GMA Network, a brand new car, 1 million pesos and a house and lot.[1]
