WWE has announced that Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and a mystery partner will face Bray Wyatt, Braun Strowman and Luke Harper at the Night of Champions pay-per-view later this month. Here’s the match preview teaser:
“Now, with Night of Champions approaching, how will Ambrose and Reigns fare as this ongoing Hatfield and McCoy’s-like conflict continue? Will the former Shield brethren and their third be able to break the aura of invincibility that currently surrounds Braun Strowman? Or will Sister’s Abigal’s black sheep give The Eater of Worlds a definitive edge in this wicked war?”
Hit up Page 2 below to find out who the mystery partner could be:
Originally, the man expected to fulfill the role as the third “mystery” member of the team of Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose to take on The Wyatt Family trio consisting of Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Braun Strowman, was “The Icon” Sting.
Instead, as noted in our original report, the leading candidate at this point as the mystery member of the Reigns-Ambrose team is none other than former Wyatt Family member Erick Rowan.
It should be noted that until further notice, this should be taken strictly as speculation at this point.

Charlotte was Michael Cole’s guest for this week’s sit-down interview at WWE.com to discuss her upcoming Divas Championship match against Nikki Bella at Night of Champions.
Charlotte said the past few days do not seem real. She only started at NXT 3 years ago and she remembers watching Paige and Emma at NXT Arrival and wondering how she would ever reach that level. She never pictured herself in this position and she’s honored to have this opportunity.
4 years ago, she was a personal trainer and got emotional when revealing that it was her little brother who made her believe in herself and made her realize that this was a dream of her’s.
Michael Cole asked about her father and what it’s been like coming into this business as the daughter of the legendary Ric Flair. She joked that she’s crying right now and her father has always been an emotional guy. A lot of pepole think that doors have opened easy for her due to her family lineage, but it’s also put a lot of pressure on her to live up to his legacy. She is so proud of her father and she wants to carry on his legacy. She thinks a lot about what people think about her and questions if she’s only here because of who her father is.
All she knows how to do is work hard. Whether it’s been volleyball, cheerleading, basketball, gymnastics, track, diving, tennis. All she’s ever wanted to do is be the best. At the end of the day, she just wants to make her family proud.
Cole brought up Nikki Bella’s comments to WWE.com this week where she stated Charlotte isn’t ready for this and should go back to NXT. Charlotte says she loves NXT and would love to go back whenever she can. She’s disappointed that Nikki doesn’t look at her as competition. She wasn’t raised that way and looks at everyone fairly. Especially with the Divas Revolution, it makes her feel that Nikki doesn’t take her seriously. Nikki doubting her makes her blood boil and fuels her to become champion.
Charlotte was asked what the Divas Revolution means to her. She said she’s been through a lot, she’s seen a lot and the movement is not about fancy clothes or magazine covers. It’s about empowering women all around the world and she hopes that little girls and women around the world look at her as inspiration and follow their dreams.

It looks like we may finally get to see the Seth Rollins statue that was never officially unveiled in the ring at last Monday’s post-SummerSlam edition of WWE RAW.
WWE is teasing that on Monday’s edition of RAW in Tampa, Florida, the Rollins statue may finally be revealed.
As noted, WWE has also announced that Sting, who attacked Rollins last week, setting up the Night Of Champions title match between the two, will be kicking off Monday’s show.
WWE posted the following teaser regarding Sting and Rollins, as well as the potential unveiling of the Rollins statue on RAW:
After beating both Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, absorbing some serious punishment from The Beast Incarnate at WWE Battleground and defeating John Cena for the United States Title at SummerSlam, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins has grown pretty fearless as of late, which is probably why he seems unfazed by Sting’s sudden re-emergence in WWE — a return that led to a one-on-one World Title clash between The Architect and The Vigilante at Night of Champions.
Rollins oozed bravado on SmackDown, where he wrote Sting off as an “artifact” and vowed to finish what The Cerebral Assassin started at The Show of Shows by crushing his “old bones to dust.” Is The Architect underestimating the WCW icon?
Plus, there’s still the matter of Rollins’ missing statue, which was to be unveiled last Monday night before Sting’s ambush. Will “The Future of WWE” reclaim his bronze likeness this week?
WWE continues to make announcements regarding Monday’s edition of RAW, as we can now officially report another match for Monday’s show in Tampa, Florida.
Earlier this weekend, WWE announced that Sting will be opening Monday’s RAW to address what happened with Seth Rollins last week, as well as their upcoming WWE Night Of Champions title match.
WWE also announced a first-ever “Divas Beat The Clock Challenge,” where Paige, Charlotte and Becky Lynch will compete to see who wins a WWE Divas title shot against Nikki Bella at Night Of Champions.
On Sunday, WWE announced that in addition to the opening segment with Sting and the “Divas Beat The Clock Challenge,” Dolph Ziggler will go one-on-one with “The Bulgarian Brute” Rusev.

WWE has announced the first ever “Divas Beat The Clock Challenge” for this coming Monday night’s edition of WWE RAW.
Scheduled to compete in the “Beat The Clock Challenge” on Monday night in Tampa, Florida are Paige, Charlotte and Becky Lynch. There is currently no word regarding their opponents.
The Diva who wins her match in the shortest amount of time will earn a shot at WWE Divas Champion Nikki Bella at the WWE Night Of Champions pay-per-view on Sunday, September 20, 2015 at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.
WWE has announced that Sting will kick off this coming Monday’s edition of WWE RAW in Tampa, Florida.
As noted, Sting is not currently advertised for any upcoming RAW shows, however some appearances are expected leading up to the WWE Night Of Champions pay-per-view regardless.
Sting returned to WWE storylines on last week’s RAW during the main event segment where a Seth Rollins statue was supposed to be unveiled. Instead, Sting made a surprise return and attacked Rollins, prompting Triple H to announce Sting vs. Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Night Of Champions on Sunday, September 20, 2015 at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.
The Icon Sting is featured prominently on the official poster for WWE’s upcoming Night of Champions pay-per-view on September 20th. Sting returns to the ring for the first time since WrestleMania 31 and will challenge Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight championship.
– NXT stars Tyler Breeze and Baron Corbin will be on the road with WWE’s main roster this weekend’s live events from
– NXT’s Rich Brennan has been promoted and is now the lead announcer of SmackDown.
– On last night’s SmackDown, Seth Rollins reacted to Sting’s surprise return on RAW and their upcoming title match at WWE Night of Champions. Rollins vows to crush Sting’s “old bones to dust.”
Following Sting’s surprise return to WWE TV at the conclusion of Monday’s RAW, WWE COO Triple H announced after the show that Sting will get a shot at Seth Rollins’ WWE World Heavyweight championship at next month’s Night of Champions PPV. WWE officials decided on the match last week just days before SummerSlam, according to a report at PWInsider.com.
Regarding Sting’s appearance on RAW, crew members brought the covered platform to the ring on fork lift, with Sting in it the entire time. Sting was on the platform for nearly 20 minutes during the segment and his paint had visibly sweated off by the time he was revealed.
As seen on Monday’s post-SummerSlam edition of RAW, legendary tag-team The Dudley Boyz made their WWE return, taking out WWE Tag-Team Champions The New Day.
The Dudley Boyz are now back full-time with WWE, and will be going on the road with the company for pay-per-views, television and live events. There’s talk that both Bubba Ray Dudley and Devon Dudley have signed multi-year deals with WWE, however that has not been confirmed as of this writing.
The Dudleyz were kept hidden before coming out on RAW on Monday night, as practically nobody knew they were there until they came to “Gorilla Position” before going out to the ring. Top WWE officials were obviously aware of the fact that they were back, as they had pyro, music and new merchandise ready.
It appears that The Dudley Boyz will be facing The New Day, and possibly The Prime Time Players, who they squared off with on RAW as well, at the September 20th Night Of Champions pay-per-view.
As reported on Monday evening, the Sting vs. Seth Rollins match at WWE Night Of Champions will be for Rollins’ WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
On the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, it was noted that Vince McMahon has not signed off on Rollins defending his WWE United States Championship at Night Of Champions yet. It was also noted that it’s believed that Rollins will pull double-duty that night, defending his U.S. title in one match, and his WWE World Heavyweight title in the main event against Sting.
It’s worth pointing out that the current angle involving Rollins as a double-champion and the rumors that he will be pulling double-duty is similar to what was just done recently in Ring Of Honor with ROH World Champion and ROH TV Champion Jay Lethal.

Following his surprise return at the conclusion of Monday’s post-SummerSlam edition of RAW, “The Icon” Sting has now found himself in the WWE World Heavyweight Championship picture.
As announced at the end of RAW, Triple H appeared on the WWE Network immediately after the show to address what happened.
Renee Young spoke with both Triple H and Stephanie McMahon on the WWE Network after RAW about Sting crashing the Seth Rollins statue presentation and beating down the WWE World Heavyweight and United States Champion.
From there, HHH made the huge announcement that Sting will be challenging the WWE World Heavyweight and United States Champion Seth Rollins at the WWE Night Of Champions pay-per-view on Sunday, September 20, 2015 at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. Rollins’ WWE World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line, but his WWE United States Championship will not.
With WWE SummerSlam in the rear view, we’re already looking ahead to WWE Night of Champions, which takes place on Sunday, September 20th.
On the latest installment of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer revealed two matches that are already being planned for the show. After retaining the Intercontinental championship last night at SummerSlam, Ryback looks to be putting his gold on the line against The Miz. Also, there is talk of having a mixed tag match featuring Dolph Ziggler and Lana vs. Rusev and Summer Rae.
Following his win at SummerSlam, Seth Rollins now holds the WWE World Heavyweight championship and the Untied States Championship. We’ll see the matter addressed tonight on RAW, but we’ll see how long Seth holds on to both titles. Other titles that will be up for grabs include Nikki Bella’s Divas Championship and The New Day’s tag team titles.
– The next WWE pay-per-view will be the WWE Night Of Champions event, which takes place on Sunday, September 20, 2015, live from the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. WWE aired the following promo during SummerSlam last night to promote this year’s WWE Night Of Champions pay-per-view.

As recently as last month, there had been talk of Sting competing at SummerSlam, teaming with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose against the Wyatt Family. One of the reasons WWE decided not to use Sting at this year’s SummerSlam pay-per-view is due to the fact that the card is already loaded with stars like The Undertaker, Brock Lesnar, actor Stephen Amell and others.
With that said, it’s possible WWE is waiting to use Sting as a hook to sell the WWE Network in September for Night Of Champions, which takes place in Texas, where Sting currently lives.
If Sting is used in September, it’s possible he will work the previously rumored six-man tag-team match with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose against Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. A big factor in this match happening is Erick Rowan’s status, as he’s currently out of action due to injury and might not be back until November.
