Talk:Battleground (2016)

Roman Reigns

I don't see Roman being apart of this main event. Technically he can be but his suspension ends like 4 days before the sunday of the event. He won't be able to make any Raw's or Smackdowns until after Battleground — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.69.20.28 (talk) 23:24, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

That's what I don't see either. But I think at the end of the match Dean hits Seth and Roman with his finisher and Dean is still champion. GoldenTruth Fans (talk) 04:03, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

I don't think wwe is done punishing Roman coz their made him a fan favorite despite fans and critics wanting his head Dange 34-4 (talk) 11:23, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

6 man Tag

Enzo and Cass / John Cena v The Club announced for Battleground just now on RAW. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SplashyDragon46 (talk • contribs) 02:39, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

I think all 6 men will put up a good match, but if John And Enzo And Cass are in trouble (and the ref doesn't do anything) The Usos will come out and help them defeat The Club. GoldenTruth Fans (talk) 21:12, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

The Miz vs Darren Young: Intercontinental Title

The finish of that match made no sense, it isn't obviousl a countout, a no contest or a DQ. Does anyone have a source for the result at all? SPACKlick (talk) 02:05, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

Notable for...

The article's intro currently reads "The show is also notable for Randy Orton's first appearance in a WWE ring after a nine-month injury and former NXT Women's Champion Bayley's main roster debut."

There is a dispute between (at least two) editors about whether also to include Mojo Rawley's "debut". I am one of these editors and hereby present my case:

1. I'm not much invested in any of these notable things being mentioned in the intro. We should have sources - probably reviews of the PPV - for all of them. While saying that Ambrose beat Rollins and Reigns is an obvious fact, whether the event is notable for Orton or Bayley or Rawley is not obvious.

2. Among the three, the event being notable for Rawley way less likely than being notable for the other two. Orton is a mutiple world champion who returned from a nine-month injury and will be in the Summer Slam main event, Bayley is one of NXT's top stars. Rawley OTOH was neither a top star in NXT nor did he even have a match on Battleground. He only had a minute of running to the ring and screaming.

Therefore it is my view that while he also need a source for Orton and Bayley being notable, the likelihood for finding one for Rawley is minute. Therefore I removed Rawley.

Aggressive edit warring isn't helpful and (all too familiar) edit summaries like "Bayley is not god" are disruptive. If you disagree, you can also make your case here. Others are invited to agree/disagree as well. Str1977 ^(talk) 17:20, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
