WWE Battleground 2015: Date, Start Time, Matches, Live Stream, PPV Info
This Sunday, WWE Battleground 2015 will emanate from the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri, at 8 p.m. ET. The main event looks set to be the biggest selling point of the show, but there are a few bouts on the undercard that might just exceed expectations.
With four titles set to be contested and a couple of intriguing grudge matches to flesh out the evening, the last stop before SummerSlam promises its fair share of twists and turns. Here's all the information you need ahead of the show on Sunday, July 19.
Live Stream, PPV Info
WWE Battleground 2015 will be streaming via the WWE Network—so that's $9.99 for the month for any existing subscribers or free if you haven't tried the service out yet. You'll be able to view the show on your Apple TV, Kindle Fire, Roku, modern games consoles or any other device with access to the WWE app.
Ahead of the main card, the pre-show will kick off proceedings as R-Truth takes on King Barrett for the latter's prized crown. That action kicks off at 7 p.m. ET and can be watched for free on YouTube, the WWE app and a host of other services.
If you're still watching WWE events via traditional pay-per-view, Battleground will run you in the region of $49.95 for an SD broadcast and $54.95 for the HD presentation. At this point, the WWE Network seems to be a far preferable option.
Match Card
• R-Truth vs. King Barrett (Pre-show)
• WWE Tag Team Championship: The Prime Time Players (c) vs. The New Day
• WWE Intercontinental Championship: Ryback (c) vs. The Big Show vs. The Miz

• WWE United States Championship: John Cena (c) vs. Kevin Owens
• WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Seth Rollins (c) vs. Brock Lesnar
Face Your Fears
Roman Reigns' match against Bray Wyatt looks set to set up a feud that will likely run past SummerSlam and beyond. Despite some novel mind games from Wyatt, this rivalry hasn't yet found the spark it needs to really intrigue audiences.
However, that could play into their match on Sunday. A big twist could certainly liven things up, and a program between two of WWE's most promising homegrown talents is certainly worthy of such an angle.
One name conspicuous by its absence on the current match card is known Reigns sympathizer, Dean Ambrose. Expect the Lunatic Fringe to make an appearance on Sunday—but who knows whether or not he'll be in the Juggernaut's corner.
'French American' vs. United States Champion
After a string of excellent matches, there's plenty of reason to be excited for Owens vs. Cena. With the former no longer the NXT Champion, expect to see a new level of brutality on show when they meet on Sunday night.
Owens infamously won the NXT belt via referee stoppage when he rendered Sami Zayn unable to continue in a match at NXT Takeover: Rival earlier this year. Could John Cena be about to suffer the same fate?
Seth Visits Suplex City
Going into the pay-per-view, things certainly look bleak for Seth Rollins. His entourage is severely depleted after a string of attacks by Brock Lesnar in recent weeks, leaving him severely outgunned ahead of his greatest test yet as WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
Few would expect Rollins to pick up the victory against the in-form Beast—but, as we've seen before, the Architect always seems to have something up his sleeve when he's most in need of a big win.
It's difficult to say exactly what Rollins has planned for Sunday night, but rest assured there will be fireworks before all is said and done. The title match could well be one of the best bouts of the year, and its outcome is sure to give us a hint at just what WWE has in store for SummerSlam.
