AJ Styles to apologize to Shane McMahon
Last week, special guest referee Shane McMahon attempted to lay out the rules of engagement for SummerSlam’s United States Championship bout between AJ Styles and Kevin Owens. Unfortunately, the tensions between all three men reached a boiling point, as Owens landed a sucker punch on Styles. The Phenomenal One attempted to retaliate with a Pele Kick, only for it to connect with Shane.
WWE.com has learned that Styles intends to apologize to McMahon on SmackDown LIVE. Will Shane accept? Will the inadvertent kick have any effect on Shane’s promise to call things right down the middle at SummerSlam?

Will Natalya make it to Brooklyn in one piece, or will The Irish Lass Kicker soften her up for Naomi with a devastating Dis-arm-her?
