WWE “Battleground,” which will be broadcasting live from the Tampa Bay Times Forum in Tampa Bay, FL, is just a few short days away.
The staff here at Wrestling Rumors is set to give you their picks for each and every match that’s been scheduled for the event.
Bragging rights are on the line as each writer here at the site believes they have the wrestling know-it-all to pick the most matches correctly.
Participants
