At Money in the Bank, Dean Ambrose won the Money in the Bank ladder match. Later in the event, Seth Rollins defeated Roman Reigns to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship; however, Ambrose cashed in the Money in the Bank contract and defeated Rollins for the title. The following night on Raw, Reigns and Rollins want a rematch for the title and a match was set up for the two to determine the #1 contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, but the match ended in a double count-out, in response of this Ambrose willingly decided he would face both Reigns and Rollins in a Triple Threat match at Battleground, which was made official by Shane McMahon.
