Tonight at WWE Battleground, Santino Marella and The Great Khali will take on The Real Americans, Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro, in a tag team match. The official WWE website announced the bout this morning.
WWE teases, “Will the Real Americans finally be able to break The Italian Stallion, or will Santino’s unorthodox style —and Khali’s brute strength — overwhelm Zeb Colter’s patriotic pair?”
The updated line-up for Sunday’s pay-per-view event taking place in Buffalo, New York at the First Niagara Center is as follows:
Vacant WWE Championship:
Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan
World Heavyweight Championship:
Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Rob Van Dam*
WWE Intercontinental Championship:
Curtis Axel (c) vs. R-Truth
WWE Divas Championship:
AJ Lee (c) vs. Brie Bella
