CM Punk discusses his World Heavyweight Championship match against Gunther

On last week’s show, ‘The Second City Saint’ CM Punk won the gauntlet match to secure the #1 Contenders spot for the World Heavyweight Championship.

He is now set to battle the current Champion, Gunther at the summer’s biggest party, SummerSlam. Ahead of their clash, The Second City Saint is set to discuss the upcoming clash on this week’s show.

Roman Reigns addresses Paul Heyman

‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns made his highly anticipated return during the final moments of the show to aid Jey Uso and CM Punk, who were being attacked by Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker.

Reigns is now set to address his former Wiseman, Paul Heyman, who betrayed him to align with Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 41 and create the new faction, which included Breakker and Reed.

Sami Zayn vs Karrion Kross

Sami Zayn has been absent from WWE programming for two weeks after being ambushed by Karrion Kross backstage. Kross sent a stern warning on last week’s show via a promo.

He is now set to battle Zayn in a rematch this week. This also means Zayn will make his return this week in Houston.

Rusev vs Sheamus

As announced by Sheamus on last week’s show in a backstage segment where he confronted Rusev and accused him of winning their last outing via cheap tactics.

The two former friends are set to collide once again this week. While Rusev was looking to shift his focus on getting back to the title, Sheamus wants him to teach a lesson and settle the score.

The New Day (Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston) vs The Creed Brothers (Brutus & Julius Creed) vs The LWO – World Tag Team Championship #1 Contenders match

The New Day (Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston) have been in mourning since losing their title to the Judgment Day (Finn Balor & JD McDonagh). The former Champions have been asking General Manager Adam Pearce to grant them a title rematch.

However, Pearce last week informed them that they will be in a number one contenders match, with the winner being awarded a title shot. The New Day will now battle the Creed Brothers (Brutus & Julius Creed) and the LWO in a triple-threat match.
