Summerslam will return on July 30th LIVE in Nashville, TN. This years event has a stacked card, with multiple title shots up for grabs. These predictions are based on the matches announced at the time of writing.
Logan Paul vs. The Miz
Earlier this year we saw Logan Paul and The Miz team up at WrestleMania. Many accuse The Miz of attacking Logan Paul after their win because of jealousy, but I think it was because he finally say the YouTube Videos Paul is famous for. Personally I will be going with The Miz on this one, as he not only has more experience, but intelligence as well.
Pat McAfee vs. Happy Corbin
During their time with the Indianapolis Colts, McAfee and Corbin were actually roommates. Over time their friendship has disintegrated. Corbin has made it very clear he isn’t a fan of McAfee or his commentary style. We already know McAfee can take a beating, will he be able to outlast or outrun Happy Corbin? I think Corbin will be the winner of this match, unless someone interferes on McAfee’s behalf.
Riddle vs. Seth “Freakin” Rollins
Seth Rollins has been on a terrible losing streak. That will end at Summerslam when he smashes the moronic bro into the canvas. I am going with Rollins on this one.
United States Championship: Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Theory
This is one of those feuds that is starting to drag out. How many times is WWE going to rerun this matchup? I really hope this is the last time. Theory has his Money In The Bank Briefcase to cash in, and there are many other wrestlers who could step up to fight Lashley. I am predicting Lashley retains.
Smackdown Women’s Title: Liv Morgan (c) vs. Ronda Rousey
Liv Morgan has shown more heart as a wrestler than 90% of the roster. Over the past few years, she has really grown into her own, and has become a fierce competitor in her own right. She won the title at MITB after cashing in her briefcase, the same night she won it. She was able to catch Ronda off guard, after her all out brawl with Natalya. Will Liv be able to fight off the former MMA Champion when she isn’t fresh off a match? My money is on Liv Morgan retaining the title.
WWE Tag Team Titles: The Uso’s (c) vs. The Street Profits
The Street Profits have been so close to capturing the titles they can probably taste the leather. Whether it be due to ref error, or The Uso’s manipulating the situation, the WWE Universe has watched them be robbed of the titles again and again, and will probably see them get robbed for the titles at Summerslam as well. I think The Uso’s will retain, and continue to be the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions.
Last Man Standing Match: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Brock Lesnar
It is very telling how little WWE values its talent. Yet again we have Brock Lesnar being brought back from the farm, as if WWE has no other talent. Sadly instead of really working on building younger talent, they continue to focus on the 35 and up age bracket. If WWE wants to continue into the future they need to do more to keep younger viewers invested in the product. I am hoping Roman retains, and Brock heads back to the farm.
RAW Womens Championship: Bianca Belair (c) vs. Becky Lynch
Becky has gone off the rails. She is power hungry and will continue to chase the gold by any means necessary. Bianca has shown herself to be a strong champion, and so far has been able to outsmart and out wrestle her competitors. I feel that Becky has lost focus on her wrestling, in her obsession with regaining the title, so we will probably see Bianca Belair retain the title, unless there is some kind of outside interference.
These are the matches that have been announced so far! My thoughts are my own!
To watch Summerslam LIVE you can still find tickets on Ticketmaster, it will be streamed on the Peacock Network in the US, and on the WWE Network in international markets.
