Also I know it's the same every week but man they really don't announce shit nowadays for shows

Roman Reigns comes face-to-face with John Cena

Just eight nights before his epic Universal Championship Match at SummerSlam, The Head of the Table will come face-to-face with 16-time World Champion John Cena.

What will happen when one of the most dominant Universal Champions of all time steps into the squared circle with the iconic Leader of the Cenation?

King Nakamura to challenge Intercontinental Champion Apollo Crews

Just when it looked as if King Nakamura might defeat Apollo Crews in an intriguing Championship Contender Match last week, Commander Azeez suddenly pulled The Artist out of the ring for a disqualification. Not only did Nakamura walk away with a victory, but he hurled The Prince of Nigeria into his gigantic cohort after the bell.

As a result, King Nakamura gets an opportunity at the Intercontinental Title.

Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks to take part in SmackDown Women’s Title Contract Signing

After boldly accepting the challenge from a returning Sasha Banks last week, SmackDown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair will sign the contract for her SummerSlam matchup with The Boss. What will happen when the two fierce Superstars set their historic WrestleMania Rematch in stone?​

 

[Chris]

Shinsuke gonna do it

 

[Marty McFourth]

If it's anything like their past promo battle, you guys are in for a treat. Even better now Roman can handle himself on the mic as well.

I'll def be watching youtube highlights.

Although it might not be the same without Kurt's reactions in the background

 

[Jimmy King]

Cena is back from promoting The Suicide Squad to grace us with his presence

 

[Pat]

let’s goooo

 

[Pat]

lots more masks at this show than the previous two i’ve been at so that’s good

 

[Pat]

i also think meltzer last week was referring to a sign posted on metal detectors that you can’t video record. pictures are still technically allowed

 

[Pat]

security is also wayyyy down there so i think i’ll record all i want lol

 

[Chris]

Nah the thing last week was an actual tweet from the arena that they later took down so it wasn't any kind of Meltzer spec I don't think

 

[Dale]

Becky gonna return tonight, throw Sasha out the ring and sign the contract to face Bianca

 

[Chris]

I'd mark if Corbin tried and sign the women's contract
