WWE Battleground 2025 PPV Live – May 25th, 2025 Preview: The Ultimate Showdown

By [Watch Wrestling], WWE Insider & Event Specialist


🔥 The Stage is Set for WWE Battleground 2025 – A Night of Chaos, Glory, and Unforgettable Moments

WWE’s most brutal and hard-hitting event of the year is back—Battleground 2025! On Sunday, May 25th, 2025, the WWE Universe will witness an explosive night of high-stakes matches, shocking betrayals, and championship clashes that will redefine the landscape of sports entertainment.

From career-altering grudge matches to title defenses that could change the course of WWE history, Battleground 2025 promises to be an unforgettable spectacle. The superstars are ready to wage war inside—and possibly outside—the ring, leaving everything on the line in pursuit of glory.

In this exclusive preview, we break down every confirmed match, analyze the rivalries, and predict the outcomes that could send shockwaves through the WWE.


🏆 Confirmed Matches & Breakdowns

1. Hell in a Cell Match: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Cody Rhodes – Undisputed WWE Universal Championship

“The Final Chapter of a Bloody War”

The Rivalry:
This feud has been years in the making. Since Cody Rhodes’ triumphant return to WWE, he has had one goal—dethroning Roman Reigns. After falling short at WrestleMania 43, Rhodes earned one final shot inside the most demonic structure in WWE history: Hell in a Cell.

What’s at Stake:

  • If Rhodes loses, he can never challenge for the title again as long as Reigns is champion.
  • Reigns’ historic 1,500+ day reign hangs in the balance.

Prediction:
This will be a brutal, career-defining battle. Expect blood, steel chair shots, and a possible interference from The Rock or Solo Sikoa. Will Rhodes finally finish the story? Or will Reigns cement his legacy as the greatest champion of all time?

🔮 Our Pick: Cody Rhodes finally overcomes The Tribal Chief—but at what cost?


2. Triple Threat Match: Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Bianca Belair vs. Charlotte Flair – Women’s World Championship

“A Clash of Titans”

The Rivalry:
Rhea Ripley has dominated the women’s division, but Bianca Belair and Charlotte Flair refuse to be silenced. After months of backstage assaults and near-falls, WWE management has made this a Triple Threat—no disqualifications, no count-outs.

What’s at Stake:

  • Ripley’s record-setting reign could end in an instant.
  • Belair seeks to regain her throne, while Flair eyes her 17th world title to break her own record.

Prediction:
This will be a high-flying, hard-hitting war with all three women pushing their limits. Expect dive spots, submission battles, and possible interference from Judgment Day.

🔮 Our Pick: Rhea Ripley retains—but barely—after a shocking twist.


3. Last Man Standing Match: Seth “Freakin” Rollins vs. Gunther

“The Visionary vs. The Ring General”

The Rivalry:
Gunther has dismantled every opponent in his path, but Seth Rollins refuses to stay down. After Rollins cost Gunther the Intercontinental Championship, the Austrian brute demanded a Last Man Standing match to settle the score once and for all.

What’s at Stake:

  • Pride, pain, and possibly a future world title opportunity.
  • Gunther’s unstoppable aura vs. Rollins’ resilience.

Prediction:
This will be a brutal, physical war—ladders, kendo sticks, and maybe even a table spot through the stage.

🔮 Our Pick: Gunther stands tall—but Rollins earns his respect.


4. WWE Tag Team Championship: The Usos (c) vs. The Creed Brothers

“Family vs. Future”

The Rivalry:
The Usos have reclaimed the tag team gold, but the brutal, powerhouse duo of Julius and Brutus Creed are hungry for their first taste of WWE gold. After weeks of destructive squashes, the Creeds have demanded their shot.

What’s at Stake:

  • The Usos’ legacy as the greatest tag team of all time.
  • The Creed Brothers’ chance to usher in a new era.

Prediction:
fast-paced, hard-hitting classic with dives, superkicks, and unbelievable strength spots.

🔮 Our Pick: The Creed Brothers shock the world and become new champions.


5. Intercontinental Championship: Sami Zayn (c) vs. Bron Breakker

“Underdog vs. Unstoppable Force”

The Rivalry:
Sami Zayn’s feel-good title reign is in jeopardy as Bron Breakker, the most dominant NXT call-up in years, has his sights set on gold. Breakker has demolished everyone in his path—can Zayn outsmart the powerhouse?

What’s at Stake:

  • Zayn’s Cinderella story continues or ends.
  • Breakker’s main roster coronation.

Prediction:
David vs. Goliath battle with Zayn using his speed and wit against Breakker’s raw power.

🔮 Our Pick: Bron Breakker crushes Zayn to become the new IC Champion.


6. Grudge Match: Becky Lynch vs. Liv Morgan

“Revenge is a Dish Best Served Violently”

The Rivalry:
Liv Morgan finally snapped after months of being overlooked. She attacked Becky Lynch, costing her a title match, and declared war. Now, they meet in a No Disqualification grudge match.

What’s at Stake:

  • Morgan’s career resurgence vs. Lynch’s pride.
  • Possible heel turn for one of them.

Prediction:
wild brawl featuring weapons, outside interference, and possibly a shocking betrayal.

🔮 Our Pick: Liv Morgan gets the upset win—but the feud is far from over.


💥 Potential Surprises & Shockers

  • The Rock’s Return? – Could The Great One appear to aid Roman Reigns?
  • CM Punk’s Next Move? – Will the Best in the World make an impact?
  • New Debuts? – Rumors suggest a major NXT call-up could happen.
  • Title Changes? – With so much on the line, anything can happen.

Eric Jones

Very good show

March 11, 2025

I think his Ic run being so long hurt him as a credible world champion. It’s like he fought all the same guys and crushed them for a mid card belt now we are supposed to believe they are an actual challenge to him as a world champion? Lol when they took the intercontinental title off of him they should have moved him to SmackDown and put a new list of challengers in front of him. And moved Cody and the WWE championship to raw

Ezra

Very good episode,

March 11, 2025

imagine being deluded enough to think a multi billion dollar company with guys who literally have wrestling in their blood hot shoted a heel turn storyline because they booked themselves into a corner. are you serious dude? that is the most ridiculous thing i have read in a minute lol. good luck bro.

Rowan

Great episode.

March 11, 2025

Punk/Cody was there for the taking and Cena could’ve gone up against Gunther.

They knee jerked a heel turn because they booked themselves into a nepotism corner

Hudson

Very good show

March 11, 2025

honestly don’t get the hate. like sure, there’s no major story here YET. But Punk/Rollins/Reigns has a lot of potential to be a high quality match. I’m legit looking forward to it and love that these three have wound up in a match together.

Willie

Great episode.

March 11, 2025

The triple threat match between them at Wrestlemania is gonna be awesome. Super stoked for this match

Gary

Great show

March 10, 2025

Let’s mention the women’s match in every live/hate challenge. Easiest task for this group of “journalists” ever. Each one of these love/hates are more embarrassing than the last. We get it, women’s wrestling is amazing and should main event every show and if a women’s match is bad it’s because where it is on the card or the booking it’s never the talent, all the women are top tier wrestlers.

Gerald

Very good show

March 10, 2025

You wanna find out who the real simps and shills are? Mark down anybody who defends that main event match! Even the diehard AEW fans are crapping on that main event. It was terrible.

This Moxley stuff is stinking out the entire show and the dude seems to think he is Brock Lesnar.

The sad part is that this wasn’t a terrible show overall and with all things taken into an account. But at the end of the day, a bad ending can ruin a whole show for a lot of people. “Game of Thrones season 8” style.

Frank

Great show

March 10, 2025

So the crux of it all is that the PLE started strong…then ended with a sour belch.

The fans most remember how you left them and the fans are going to remember this show with a resounding “bleh”!

And any casual fan who watched with their buddies who are more diehard fans, may have left the viewing saying aloud, “That guy was pretty good. He should go to WWE”.

Evelyn

Great show.

March 10, 2025

I’ve said before but I think one of the issues here is that Tony is a massive fan of NJPW and often looks to emulate their PPV card structure. NJPW cards typically build to a climax with the big matches back to back and tend not to feature cool down matches or spots. Problem is western audiences haven’t been conditioned for that over the last 40 years, so often results in burnout. Personally I would have laid out the card like below giving breathing spaces, opening with the Steel Cage match and building to the Hollywood Ending as the main event.

Storm vs. May

Mox vs. Cope

Hangman vs. MJF

Hurt Syndicate vs. Outrunners

Takeshita vs. Omega

Swerve vs. Ricochet

Okada vs. King

Mone vs. Watanabe

Ospreay vs. Fletcher

Willie

Great episode.

March 10, 2025

Very good show, but the ending is what people remember. WWE ended Elimination Chamber with a huge heel turn. AEW ended Revolution with that abominable ending.

it doesn’t totally undo a great show, but it might have done more harm than good.

Christian

Very good show

March 10, 2025

I can already see Trips the mark statues, Trips the mark with a 20 minutes speech, the camera focusing onTrips the mark every 30 seconds when he is on the crowd.

Oliver

Great show.

March 10, 2025

I’m glad they are bringing it back to a nice venue. The idea of hosting it immediately after Smackdown is insane. Why not put a highlight show or broadcast the Hall of Fame instead of airing Smackdown that week.

Noah
