CM Punk has proclaimed himself as the “best in the world” when it comes to professional struggle. But since his return to WWE, injuries, bad luck and Seth Rollins have maintained it the ultimate goal of winning the World Heavyweight Championship. Punk got the opportunity for the title after winning a glove game in “Monday Night Raw”.

Gunther has celebrated the championship since he won him as Jey use months after his defeat of Wrestlemania 41. He defeated Goldberg during his main event match on Saturday night and now has the challenge of facing Punk, who is possibly his most formidable opponent in quite some time.

It will undoubtedly be a battle of wills when those two enter the ring for the main event.

While no one has heard of Rollins since he was injured weeks ago against the Knight, one has to ask if he will stalk at the bottom and make sure that Punk does not have gold in his hands.

Tiffany Stratton has resisted every test he has faced so far. He sent Charlotte Flair to Wrestlemania 41, Nia Jax in one last game and then Trish Stratus en Evolution. She has been on fire, but she will have her greatest test so far in Jade Cargill.

Cargill won the Queen of Ring Tournament and chose to face Stratton. It will be your first chance in a single title. Cargill put his enmity with Naomi behind her, defeating her in a party without restrictions on evolution.

Stratton and Cargill are two of the best women in the SmackDown list and any of the artists is more suitable to hold the belt at the end of the night.

Randy Orton & Jelly Roll vs. Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul

Jelly Roll was in the corner of Randy Orton when the “legends murderer” faced Drew McIntyre at the main event on Saturday night. He got involved in the game, distracting McIntyre and allowing Orton to capitalize. When Paul beat Orton, Jelly intervened and hit Paul on his back. McIntyre, out of nowhere, hit the jelly with a Claymore.

It was the turning point of a dispute between the two duos, and culminated in a Summerslam match. The gelatin roll even showed that it has a black hole in its arsenal. WWE fans will see if the country music artist could provide some pessimism for McIntyre and Paul.

Raquel Rodríguez and Roxanne Pérez (c) vs. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss for the WWE women’s label championship

The unusual match of Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss has hit him big with the WWE audience. Flair saved Bliss from an Evolution spear, and Bliss saved Flair from a Raquel Rodríguez attack during an episode “Friday Night SmackDown.”

Are they friends? No, not yet. But the two have gained an opportunity in the label titles and could end the champions of the label team at the end of the night.

But Rodríguez and Roxanne Pérez have no interest in giving up the titles. Rodríguez held the belt with Liv Morgan, but Pérez intervened when Morgan fell with an injury. The two defended the titles in Evolution and now have the opportunity to put their names in the division with a victory over veterans in Bliss and Flair.

Sami Zayn vs. Karrion Kross

Karrion Kross has been in the tail of Sami Zayn for months, and the rivalry will reach a critical point on the first night of Summerslam. Zayn beat Kross at Night of Champions in June, and Kross defeated Zayn a few weeks ago.

Kross has told Zayn that he will never be a world champion, while Zayn has tried to concentrate on his search for a title and leave Kross behind. Until now, in vain, since the Kross beatings prevented Zayn from participating in the Gauntlet Championship, which Punk won.

If Kross wins, Zayn has to tell him that he was right. If Zayn wins, Kross will have to say he was wrong about Zayn.

Roman Reigns and Jey use vs. Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed

It has been a long time since Roman Reigns competed in a game. The last time the fans saw him, Paul Heyman was giving him a low blow, allowing Rollins to win the triple threat game that included Punk in Wrestlemania 41.

Reigns returned to help Jey use from Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker Beatdown. He prepared for what will come in Summerslam: a gigantic label team match.

Reed and Breakker laughed at “Monday Night Raw”. Reed left use for counting, and Breakker launched Reigns through a barricade. Reed, then, stole Reigns’s shoes.

It will be a total fight when these four enter the ring.
