WWE Battleground is tonight’s wrestling pay-per-view event being aired on the WWE Network. It will be taking place at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. It will be the fourth ever Battleground pay per view, and the first event after the latest WWE brand split Raw-Smackdown draft. The first WWE Battleground Event was back in 2013 in Buffalo, New York.
On the July 7 episode of SmackDown, Zack Ryder won a match against Sheamus and then challenged Rusev to a WWE United States Championship match. On the July 11 episode of Raw, Darren Young won a battle royal to earn a title match against Intercontinental Champion The Miz at Battleground.
At Money in the Bank pay per view event, Dean Ambrose won the Money in the Bank ladder match. He then won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on Seth Rollins, who had just won the title from Roman Reigns. After a #1 Contender’s match between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins ended in a double count out, Ambrose requested to defend the title against both Reigns and Rollins. Afterwards, Shane McMahon scheduled a triple threat match between the three of them at Battleground.
