Rematch added to WWE Battleground, updated PPV card

WWE just announced that Sami Zayn vs. Mike Kanellis is official for Sunday’s WWE Battleground PPV. Sami Zayn has been an annoyance for Mike and Maria Kanellis on recent episodes of SmackDown. Sami kept accidentally interrupting Mike and Maria as they were showing affection for each other. Zayn apologized but Mike and Maria were still annoyed. Maria then went looking for Sami on the July 11th episode of SmackDown. Eventually, Sami found Mike and Maria backstage and Maria slapped him in the face. Mike Kanellis then smashed a glass vase over the back of Sami’s head.

On last night’s episode of SmackDown, Mike Kanellis made his WWE in-ring debut in a match against Sami Zayn. Sami pretty much controlled the entire match and had Kanellis set up for the Helluva Kick. Maria got into the ring and stood in front of Mike. As the referee was telling Maria to get out of the ring, Mike punched Zayn in the face and hit the Samoan Driver for the victory. Sami Zayn will now look to get his revenge Sunday night at WWE Battleground.
