Prime Time Players vs. New Day Announced for WWE Battleground 2015 PPV

Joseph ZuckerJun 22, 2015

The New Day will have a chance to win back the Tag Team Championships at WWE Battleground. The former titleholders invoked their rematch clause and will face off with The Prime Time Players at the next pay-per-view, per WWE.com's Bobby Melok.    

The Prime Time Players took the belts off The New Day back at Money in the Bank. Darren Young and Titus O'Neil also rubbed some salt in the wound last week after defeating all three members of The New Day in a six-man tag:

Big E believes his team will have the last laugh at Battleground:

WWE's tag team division may never reach the heights it did decades ago, but it has been more than enjoyable over the past few months, in no small part because of The New Day. Its members have been collectively great on the mic, and who didn't love seeing them use the "Freebird Rules" during their run with the tag titles?

The Prime Time Players have been pretty good themselves, and a sustained title reign should help their cause. Maybe Pancake Patterson can make a return.

It wouldn't make much sense to have Young and O'Neil drop the championship belts so soon after winning them, but that shouldn't make a huge difference. If anything, a new faction challenging for the belts might freshen up the tag scene a bit.
