Bryan vs. Miz for title shot, tag match announced for Super Show-Down
After the build to the pay-per-view began on television this week, WWE has made a few more announcements for Super Show-Down.
Daniel Bryan and The Miz will be facing each other at the October 6 PPV in Melbourne, Australia, with the winner getting a future shot at the WWE Championship. WWE also announced tonight that Bryan & Brie Bella vs. Miz & Maryse in a mixed tag match is set for Hell in a Cell on September 16.
Miz defeated Bryan at SummerSlam after Maryse gave him brass knuckles to use as a weapon.
John Cena vs. Kevin Owens was originally scheduled for Super Show-Down, but that’s been changed. Cena will instead team with Bobby Lashley against Owens & Elias.
WWE is also hyping that The Shield will be in action at Super Show-Down in some form after reuniting on Raw this week. Whether they’ll be in a six-man tag or separate matches wasn’t confirmed.
Triple H appeared on Monday’s Raw to hype up Super Show-Down, which will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground and air live on the WWE Network. Triple H is facing The Undertaker at the show in what’s being billed as the final time they’ll ever wrestle each other.
