As reported earlier today, The Prime Time Players faced the Shield at both WWE house shows over the weekend. WWE generally has people who are facing off on PPV work out the matches on house shows leading up the the PPV; this could indicate that the Players will win the Tag Team Turmoil match for a WWE Tag Team title shot on the PPV. As we’ve been reporting, the original plan was for the Primetime Players to face The Shield on the live pay-per-view tonight.
Obviously this is all speculation, so take it for what it’s worth.
