WWE Battleground 2016: 10 Awesome Moments

10. The Kickoff Match Shines

Sometimes, the Kickoff match before pay-per-view events can feel a little redundant. That's a shame, because the bout's chief purpose is really to help warm up the crowd for what's to come. If that's the sole intention (and there's no reason to suspect that it's not), then The Usos vs. Breezango was a success.

In the WWE Draft, both these units were posted to SmackDown. As The New Day are the current WWE Tag-Team Champions and on Raw, neither will be warring for the belts anytime soon, but that doesn't mean they don't have a part to play. If nothing else, this match proved that.

It's heartening for Tyler Breeze and Fandango in particular that they were handed the win at Battleground. Better yet, the match itself was a lot of fun, never dipping below a frantic pace that kept things motoring alone in fine fashion.

Few could begrudge this quartet the chance to prove themselves when they're effectively only there to make up the numbers. For a pre-show tag match, this was excellently worked.
