5 Surprising Moments from WWE Battleground 2017

Great Khali in a WWE Ring in 2017? What a strange world we live in.

#3 Natalya Will Fight For The Title

Can
Can confidently say that I didn't expect these two vets to be fighting for a title at Summerslam

I am pretty tired of all the Fatal Five Way Matches but the one at Battleground was fun while it lasted. It was pretty fast paced and built believable finishes for all but the final fall. Was it strange to see Natalya win in such an anticlimactic finish? Sure, but it was more surprising seeing Natalya win in the first place.

Natalya hasn't held any title since her sole Divas Champion reign in 2010. She has been a solid hand but hasn't won a big match. She mainly is around it seems to make other looks good.

So when she got a pin on Charlotte, the decorated 4-Time RAW Women's Champion and earned a title match with Naomi at Summerslam, it did come as quite a surprise. It certainly wasn’t the match a lot of us expected at the second biggest pay-per-view of the year.
