SummerSlam IC title match added to Summerslam

[Stopspot]

Raw General Manager AJ Lee announced Monday evening via Twitter, “As Raw GM, I’ve decided at #Summerslam this Sunday, @Mikethemiz will defend his Intercontinental title vs @reymysterio .How awesome is that?”

So Christian is fueding with Cesaro then I take it?

This is actually great, a relevant midcard feud. Awesome. Miz can cut some awesome promos on this midget I'm sure.

Sounds like a good match-up to me.

We will probably get some kind of announcement tonight on RAW, at least Cole mentioning it.

Cole is the only bigger Miz fan than me.

They could've made the announcement on TV, but OK, it'll be decent I guess. Then there's at least a reason for Rey to have won that match on SD.

Anyone else miss the days when wrestlers challenged wrestlers to feuds to help build it? Fuck twitter.

Come on, Crayo! It's the 21st century, get with the program! Twitter followers are WAY more important than than television ratings!

Yeah, this seems random as hell, instead of Miz coming out and challenging Rey to show he's better, or Rey asking for a title shot since he beat the champ. Even if it was in a backstage segment with AJ, it would've already been an improvement.

Should be a good match.

I wish Miz was in the main event, though. He deserves it definitely.

 

[Crayo]

The reason it bugs me is Miz will most likely get a mic segment tonight, but instead of letting him shred into Rey and having him challenge him to a match for ego reasons, they'll write him yet another generic promo about how good he is and how he won Wrestlemania 27 or something. Ugh, oh well, good feud -- they'll have a good match too. Great for the midcard.

Agreed Y2J, he'll be there eventually.

 

[Farooq]

Be a pretty good match to me. Won't see Miz and Rey feuding, but I will see Miz being put over Rey. Hopefully after Summerslam they can put Miz in a better feud with someone else for the championship, maybe R-Truth if they lose the tag team championships and their rematch then split up, could be a good feud since they both have history together and I could see Miz using R-Truth's craziness for some mic heat.

 

[Lacky]

Hopefully Miz can hold on to the title because I really like Alex Riley could do with a push for the IC championship. And with Miz & Riley having history I'm sure it would be a pretty good mid-card feud.

Guess this will get some build on SD. The match could be good, but it's just filler and the belt is meaningless.
