Ironic Balor taking on Rollins for the World Heavyweight title at Summerslam. Balor had just won the first ever Universal championship title before Rollins injured him and Balor had to give it up. Now Rollins in the first World Heavyweight champion for the new title .. maybe Balor will accidentally injure Rollins and he has to give it up. lol Karma.

News:

The Undertaker is slated to be in Detroit for Summerslam weekend.

Of note, the WWE Hall of Famer is not slated to perform his One Deadman Show in Detroit the weekend of 8/4.

So, his role that weekend remains unclear. The company is holding a tryout camp in Detroit and it's likely they will also be filming material for the WWE Network.

With the writers strike and now the SAG-AFTRA strike, there is no real reason Cena or The Rock could make a appearance at Summerslam. Although they are probably busy still doing their producing for projects and what not.
