Paid Members Benno Posted June 21, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 21, 2016 I think Battleground is fine for the match. I don't really see it as something so special you desperately have to save for Summerslam. They already gave it away pretty much in that four way that also had Orton in it.

What do you think they'll have as the main match at Summerslam instead? I'm struggling to think of anything with a decent level of appeal that hasn't been done to death using the current main roster that is bigger than a Shield triple threat.

wordsfromlee Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Wasn't the rumour going at the start of the year that one match was going to be Triple H vs Rollins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffer Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) I don't mind the triple threat being at Battleground at all. Fresh main events are the least of their worries. It's the mid cards that stink out the Network specials. With more NXT talent to be called up and the roster split allowing more and more mini dream matches to simmer they're obviously pulling their finger out of their arses and trying to ensure they pop a big special each month so as people don't just fuck off after the big three. Â And err... I'm fine with that. Edited June 21, 2016 by Gay as FOOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Wasn't the rumour going at the start of the year that one match was going to be Triple H vs Rollins? That seems like an ok match for third from the top or so, but not the main event. Matches like Ambrose/Reigns, HHH/Rollins, Lesnar/Wyatt, AJ/Cena 3, Charlotte/Sasha, Owens/Zayn... Not a bad card but nothing too great either really. I guess we will have to wait until after the split and Battleground to see how they are going to make SummerSlam feel special this year.

The Clint Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 They've definitely planted the seed for a Shane/Jericho feud. I can see that being booked as one of the big SummerSlam matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Looks like the triple threat won't be happening at Battleground now, Reigns has been suspended for a Wellness violation for 30 days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Clint Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 It will happen Battleground takes place on 24th July. They'll just come up with some bullshit to explain his absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffer Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I don't feasibly see how they can do that in the TMZ age. WWE themselves use TMZ as a source for when stories break about themselves.  I mean I know that's the whole idea of kayfabe, you just pretend anyway, but it'd be mental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 New Day vs Wyatts! Yes! Â I didn't think much of anything else on the show. Even the stuff with the Shield and Cena vs AJ felt quite flat to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzExile Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I thought Ambrose on commentary was a train wreck. I'm an Ambrose fan but by the end of the match I almost couldn't stand him. Came across like super heel The Miz at times to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
