3) Byron Saxton Is Apparently An “Insider”
You might have noticed at Battleground that Tom Phillips referred to Byron Saxton as ‘The Insider’ before introducing him. Wait a second, is this his new nickname moving forward?
Many fans were confused on social media:
Sorry, the “insider” @ByronSaxton? Is that a thing? #WWEBattleground

Since when has “the insider” ever been the nickname of Byron Saxton? Have I been missing that somehow over the years? #WWEBattleground

Maybe this is leading to some sort of character development for Saxton?
4) New Tag Team Champions (And An Awesome Match)
The Smackdown Live tag team titles were on the line at Battleground. The Usos defended their titles against the New Day on the first match of the main card.
This match was a lot of fun with both teams at one point looking like they could have gotten the victory. The match was won by Xavier Woods, crowning new tag team champs!
