You know what I can see happening. Rey Mysterio comes out and beats Del Rio, throwing the title scene into even more turmoil with Cena having the foot on the ropes, Punk being cashed in on, and Del Rio having a rematch clause. There's your main event for Night of Champions, a fatal four way elimination match.

I was really surprised that Kelly Kelly won, not that Im unhappy that she will continue being on tv, but I thought it was time for Beth and Natalya to take over the womens division, eventually leading to a feud between the two, a battle between the best.

Not sure what is going to happen with Truth/Morrison/Kingston/Miz, but I too expect Dolph and Alex Riley to be made for Night of Champions.

I don't know if I want to see another title change, it would make it the third (possibly fourth) in the past week. I could even see Mysterio being screwed out of the title shot and being placed in the title match at NOC.

I was surprised that Kelly won clean. I hope this doesn't stop Beth's push.

Oh they could, NOC is like 3 weeks away I believe.

NOC is 5 weeks away so they have plenty of time to build this PPV.

Certainly plenty of questions going into tomorrow night, for all the flaws of summerslam it has certainly set up a very interesting raw this week.

WWE have a habit of doing this, especially with RAW. The finish to the show is really good and makes up for the rest of the event and helps take the event from okay to really good.

The problem was they gave away so many SummerSlam matches on RAW last week so the undercard to SummerSlam was a bit weak. Hopefully we see some tag team action as well since they need to find opponents for Otunga & McGillicutty at NOC.

Ryder & Hawkins needs to happen. Would love Uso's winning the title though

Uso's are the best shot at getting the spot on NOC but I want Otunga& McGillicutty to wrestle some teams on RAW to at least make it look like they are preparing for the title match. Hawkins/Ryder would be good to face them on RAW in the coming weeks.

They have used Ryder a lot on TV lately, only way I see happening.

Santino needs to turn heel again and actually go solo for once. (He can benefit matches with Bourne and such)

Tomorrow's show should be interesting and once again focuses on the Main Event scene.

Looking forward to this
Rey-Del Rio will be interesting
I also believe Nash is working for either Stephanie or Vince and we may get a Corporation vs New Guard storyline and I'd be cool with that.

It would be great if that happens. Gets rid of the annoying Anonymous GM and explains why Stephanie is back.

Nash on his own would be odd and I just think it would kill Punk's heat if he went from feuding with Cena and HHH to feuding with Nash. Nash shouldn't be the focus point of a feud but can be some extra on top of it all.

Perhaps feud with all three make it seem like wrestling in general is getting angry at punk the man getting to big for his britches.

I managed to wake up extremely early, hoping CWF WAR is up right before WWE RAW so we can run into a good day

Word has it that Creative doesn't know what they have planned for Nash.

They say HHH knows but has kept it quiet.

Personally Ryder has made himself without help from WWE. So I feel he should be able to have the opportunity to shine solo.
