WWE Stomping Grounds: 5 Things you need to know before tonight's PPV
WWE Stomping Grounds is just hours away from us and I won't be shocked if most of you are not excited about the show tonight. WWE has to be blamed for it as they haven't built up the card properly, and the lack of freshness in WWE programming is clearly visible.
It is always a problem when you have major PPVs every other week and I don't get why WWE needs to do so many PPVs in a year. Too much of anything is a problem, and it is about time Vince McMahon realizes it.
Coming to the card, there are nine matches announced for the show, with seven championships on the line. The chances of any of them changing hands are low, but WWE has been known to pull out surprises at the last moment.
In this article, let's take a look at the five things you need to know before tonight's PPV- WWE Stomping Grounds. Let us know your predictions for the PPV in the comments section below.
#5 Ricochet gets his first United States title shot
In the latest WWE NEWS, The United States Championship has improved so much in the last few months, especially after Samoa Joe got his hands on the title. After having a very personal feud with Rey Mysterio for the championship, which might not have ended completely, Joe will be facing a new opponent tonight at Stomping Grounds - Ricochet.
The One and the Only won a fatal-five-way match this past week on RAW to earn himself a shot at the United States Championship. While Ricochet will certainly go into this match as the underdog, the guy possesses enough talent to take away the title from the Samoan Submission Machine. If Ricochet is successful in doing so, it will be his first main roster championship victory. The superstar has previously won the North American Championship in NXT.
This match, if done properly, has the potential to be the match of the night as both of these wrestlers are two of the best in the world at what they do. One major surprise that we can get is the involvement of Rey Mysterio or his son Dominic in the match to cost Joe the title.
With Joe injuring Mysterio at Money in the Bank and then attacking him again a few weeks ago on RAW, this might well be the chance for Dominic to avenge his father and give one back to Joe. The rumors suggest that Dominic has signed an official deal with WWE and if that is true, we might see him in the ring soon.
