Summerslam is tonight! Yes, that's right! You probably forgot, because it sure seems like WWE did. Coming off a solid NXT Takeover XXX that was hampered by a confusing title change in the main event, Summerslam is poised to make you wonder why 75 year-old Vince McMahon is still making all the decisions. Tonight's card: WWE Raw Tag Team Championship match: The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) (c) vs. Andrade and Angel Garza (with Zelina Vega) WWE United States Championship match: Apollo Crews (c) vs. MVP Dominik Mysterio (with Rey Mysterio) vs. Seth Rollins (with Murphy) (Street Fight) Sonya Deville vs. Mandy Rose (No DQ loser leaves WWE match) WWE Raw Womens Championship match: Sasha Banks (c) (with Bayley) vs. Asuka WWE SmackDown Womens Championship match: Bayley (c) (with Sasha Banks) vs. Asuka WWE Universal Championship match: Braun Strowman (c). vs. The Fiend Bray Wyatt WWE Championship match: Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Randy Orton As usual, you can expect Bayley, Sasha, and Asuka to be the highlights of the night. Drew McIntyre vs. Randy Orton has potential, as Drew has been putting on good matches as champion and Randy Orton's work since the COVID era began has arguably been the best of his career. The Street Profits and Zelina Vega's Tag Team of Handsome Men have been fighting so long that it doesn't feel fresh, but the teams are capable of putting on an entertaining match. Also, a question you never thought you'd see asked: will Dominik Mysterio's first match be better than Pat McAfee's? Preshow starts at 6pm eastern and the show itself starts at 7pm eastern.

Maybe Bray vs. Braun will end with Keith Lee coming out to beat them both up

Why is MVP wrestling in wwe? they have over 150 significant wrestling talents and about 100 of them are extremely high level.

It makes no sense that he was hired as Lashley's manager but ended up being the one who wrestles all the matches and holds the title. Lashley is essentially MVP's valet.

I dont understand the fiend/Alexa/ Braun storyline...I get that Bray used an Alexa hallucination in their match but after that Im just confused at why Alexa is involved honestly.

They teamed together in the Facebook exclusive Mixed Match Challenge and did one of those shows where they carpool together. There was some mild hints of a romantic angle between them but nothing that actually made it far into main roster TV.

This morning I had a dream that I was punching an imposter Roman Reigns in the balls over and over while other people held him down because he was in a weakened state due to his psychically linked mushroom ego pet being dead. hyped for thunderdumb

So while I can see that it makes sense to bring Alexa in, they've been using her in a gross way. But apparently she has been getting some input on the angle.

this is loving awful and I hope they get rid of these terrible screens soon and then also go into doing loving clip shows like they should have been months ago because I'd watch wrestlers critique why x did y for them all day with regards to the 90s and poo poo. but then I'd have to watch the 90s again. 2020 is an endless double-edged sword.
