WWE Roadblock 2016 Preview and Update: Triple-Threat Title Match Added to PPV Lineup

A triple-threat for the Cruiserweight Championship has been added to the lineup of matches this Sunday at WWE Roadblock: End of the Line. Reigning champion Richie Swann will defend his title against former holders Brian Kendrick and TJ Perkins, as announced by WWE reporter Charly Caruso.

Fresh from capturing the Cruiserweight gem after beating Kendrick at WWE 205 two weeks ago, Swann will now have the prove that he's the top cog at 205 pounds and below at RAW's year-ending pay-per-view event.

Monday's announcement only means Perkins has re-entered the championship picture after losing his title to Kendrick at Hell in a Cell. The Fil-American wrestler was the inaugural WWE Cruiserweight Division champ after winning the Cruiserweight Classic tournament last September.

WWE Universal Championship: Prize Fighter vs. Big Dog

Monday Night RAW's most coveted title belt will also be on the line Sunday, when Kevin Owens defends his Universal Championship against the reigning United States champion Roman Reigns.

Owens has successfully defended his championship numerous times against Seth Rollins, and now he's taking on the big dog of the defunct stable Shield and the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion - Roman Reigns.

It's going to be a powerhouse vs. powerhouse match that will surely have huge implications ahead of January's Royal Rumble and of course, Wrestlemania 33.

WWE RAW Women's Championship: Bank Statement vs. Natural Selection

It is the final, hopefully, of the rivalry between reigning champ Sasha Banks and three-time title holder Charlotte. After going through the brutality of Hell in a Cell and a classic anywhere falls match on RAW two weeks ago, the company's top female wrestler will duke it out more time in a 30-minute iron man match.

The winner will earn the right as the victor of this year's top feud, while the loser will have to go back from scratch and find her way back to contention at some point.
