As per Dave Meltzer on WOR:
Lesnar vs Orton Cena vs Styles Banks vs Charlotte Reigns vs Rollins
Nothing out of the ordinary for better or for worse. No HHH or Taker is interesting.

Pre-show. Serious answer: I guess that Ambrose would drop the title at Battleground and then either lose his rematch or not get a rematch because he's on a different brand and starts an undercard feud.

Love it, Roman is either getting the title at Battleground (my guess) or at Summerslam despite the Wellness failure. Pigheaded amazingness right there.

Was expecting Shane O Mac vs HHH to happen here. Hope they throw it in there

Not a card I'm personally big on but not a bad card by any stretch.

You see what you've done with your big mouth, Meltzer? Now people are going to be angry about a hypothetical card weeks before the show even happens YET AGAIN.

I expect Cena and Rollins to defend their brands' top tiles here.
Maybe Nakamura debuts here? Nakamura VS Zayn? Zayn's rematch.

I don't even get why anyone would care about Reigns/Rollins at this point. Rollins came back and pinned him clean in the center, so what is the feud even about? The idea of Reigns coming back as a vengeful babyface wanting retribution for Rollins telling the truth about his suspension is just horrid.
The Lesnar/Orton match is strangely fascinating. Orton doesn't especially need the win, but if Lesnar gets stomped by Hunt at UFC 200 can you seriously just turn around and put him over Orton without thinking about it? Further, if Lesnar is dominant at UFC 200 why wouldn't Vince want to make his own superstar (Orton) look awesome by going over the guy who just won a UFC fight?

Considering the lack of Ambrose and the fact that Reigns/Rollins is mentioned, I'm expecting that is the likely outcome. Would suck for Dean to go from WWE Champion to, say, feuding with Baron Corbin in one month.

If Lesnar wins I guarantee that the only guy who will beat him on a WWE ring its gonna Roman THE GUY Reigns

I'm pretty sure that the main event of Takeover in Brooklyn will be Nakamura vs. Samoe Joe for the NXT title.

Roman has to be returning as a heel right? I mean well liked athletes return from PED/Drug suspensions and hardcore fans of those players/teams sometimes never forgive them. I can't see Roman ever being the universal babyface anymore.

I normally love Summerslam but I'm not liking that card so far
Banks/flair is really the only match I'm somewhat interested in

Well Even if he loses at Battleground I am glad Dean at least got a run.
