The Miz is heading down to the ring, looks like promo time.

Really gutted we didn't get this match at all

Nice Miz attacks Mysterio on the ramp. Glad that there wasn't a match since now it can be booked for SummerSlam.

Cole coming to the ring to interview Miz.

The Miz is complaining about not being booked for Summerslam. This is going to be a good promo, something different for once.

Miz said he did it because the emphasis is on the WWE championship and nothing else. Says that he wants attention and wants a match at SummerSlam.

Expect HHH to come out.

Miz expressing his anger at not having being on the Summerslam card, liking this so far.

Miz demands a referee to come out and announce him the winner, the referee tells Justin Roberts that Miz will face someone else and it is... Kofi Kingston!

HHH doesn't come out but books a new match for The Miz.

His new opponent is Kofi Kingston who gets a good reaction from the fans.

Looks like WWE's statistics are spot on about CM Punk's shirt having sold more then The Rock's shirt... I don't see many Cena shirts in the crowd, mostly CM Punk's...

Good stuff WWE for doing this move. Money where it's at.

I see Kofi going over, they've been facing off in House Matches and apparently Rey is injured so they're doing an injury angle with him.

Kofi is developing a bit here. Could a push be on the rise for Kofi Kingston in the near future? He's actually becoming better ring-wise, he's decent on the microphone even though he doesn't cut many promos.

I do see him feuding and if R-Truth speaks about Spiders, he should talk about Kofi's attire :p

That's a feud for after Summerslam.

Crisp fast pace match so far, Kingston entering a fine performance.

Question is if KK faces the Miz sunday, where does that leave Del Rio, who would he face?

Good match so far, Kofi is looking good in the ring with Miz. Not sure what this means for SummerSlam, maybe a tag team match Mysterio & Kofi vs. Miz & Del Rio?

I fear for Del Rio not being booked on the card. A tag match would make a lot of sense however...

Rey/Kofi vs. Miz/Del Rio could work

They really need to book Del Rio, this is a top 4 PPV.

Yeah they have to get Del Rio onto the card. Too often he has been the one to miss out and they need him on this big PPV.

The timing of everything that Miz has done in this match has been great, love that leaping clothesline in the corner.
