Game Of Thrones Theories: 6 Reasons To Get Hype For CleganeBowl
The Mountain vs The Hound?!
Even though it's a show known for its violence, sex, epic scale, and political intrigue, there is something of a family drama right at the very heart of Game Of Thrones.

The biggest - literally - show of brotherly (un)love from the series though belongs to the Clegane brothers, Sandor and Gregor. They are two huge, fearsome warriors who love to fight, and have a real, deep-seated hatred for each other that dates back to Gregor burning his little brother.

It's not as crazy as it sounds (it's one of the more believable theories), and there is some textual evidence pointing towards it. This tantalising match-up has been dubbed Clegane Bowl, so here's a look at just how and why the brothers will be making returns from the dead, and the reasons that you should definitely get hype...
