3. The Bullies
Maxxine Dupri’s decision to leave Alpha Academy (Otis & Akira Tozawa) did not sit right with her stablemates, who tried to confront her but instead suffered a brutal beatdown at the hands of Dupri’s new stable, the Vision (Austin Theory, Bron Breakker & Logan Paul).
WWE has announced a tag team match between The Vision (Bron Breakker & Austin Theory) and Alpha Academy (Otis & Akira Tozawa), after another attack last week. Heading into SummerSlam, WWE might announce a showdown for the PLE as The Vision currently hold the World Tag Team titles.
2. Brock Lesnar-Oba Femi weigh-in
Speaking of SummerSlam, Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi will meet before their trilogy Hell in a Cell match. A weigh-in is announced for tonight, and it will be moderated by WWE CCO Triple H.
The segment is poised to be the highlight of the stacked show, and despite Triple H’s involvement, we might see a chaotic weigh-in at the Intuit Dome.
1. Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins meet before SummerSlam
World Heavyweight Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins are also set to face off before their title showdown at SummerSlam. This comes after Rollins refused to take Solo Sikoa’s help against Reigns and dropped Jacob Fatu with a superkick after Fatu came out to confront Sikoa.
The attack by Rollins is likely going to bring the entire Bloodline into the fold, and with the Bloodline feuding with Sikoa, LA Knight and Royce Keys, fans are likely in for a chaotic multi-man brawl tonight.
