Obviously... quick healing wishes go out to Karrion Kross who separated his shoulder early in last night's NXT Championship match against Keith Lee. Hopefully it's not bad enough to make him have to relinquish his 1st ever NXT Title.

Now for tonight's SummerSlam... YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT COMING... from Amway Center "Thunderdome" in Orlando, Fla.

TRC will be along shortly with points I imagine

Falls Count Anywhere Match for the WWE Universal Championship
Braun Strowman (c) vs. "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt

WWE Championship Match
Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Randy Orton

Raw Tag Team Championship Match
Street Profits (c) vs. Andrade & Angel Garza

Street Fight
Dominik Mysterio vs. Seth Rollins

WWE United States Championship Match
Apollo Crews (c) vs. MVP

Raw Women's Championship Match
Sasha Banks (c) vs. Asuka

Smackdown Women's Championship Match
Bayley (c) vs. Asuka

No Disqualification Match | Loser Leaves WWE (Hair vs. Hair Stipulation is NOT in play)
Mandy Rose vs. Sonya Deville

1 of these will be gone after tonight

*for just a little bit*

I wonder who of Mandy or Sonya got scared and is taking time off.

Can't wait to see what they add to the Thunderdome to make SummerSlam feel like a Big 4 vs what the atmosphere was on Friday night.

ETA: Strong card besides the MVP/Apollo match. I'm hoping Dominick can put on a show at least somewhat as successful as McAfee did last night.

Friday... Dave Meltzer said the freak was upset Sonya was going to lose her hair and that's why he acted when he did

just a Meltzer statement... no idea if that is the actual truth

but it did change the hair vs. hair stipulation

I can’t wait to be blitzed, watch, forget, then watch ups and downs to recall.

how did I miss that Strowman/Fiend was Falls Count Anywhere?

anyway... my picks

The Fiend via pin using the mandible claw
Randy Orton via pin
Street Profits - Ford pins Andrade
Dominik Mysterio via pin
Apollo Crews via pin
Raw Women's - Asuka via submission
SD Women's - Bayley via pin
Mandy Rose via pin

picks thought process -
- There was reportedly an internal power struggle over who should go over in the WWE Championship match. I figure Vince will go with the old guys and thus Orton wins... Retribution could be a nice out here... though if they show up in either top title match it'll probably be the Universal Title match
- Zelina's Latinos implode
- I think Retribution could play a role to play in the US Title match... but Cedric turning heel and costing Apollo is certainly in play too... but I feel the title isn't MVP's to take off of Apollo but rather Lashley
- Dominik wins thanks to shenanigans
- Asuka's walking out with 1 of the belts... and the divide between Bayley & Sasha will grow... perhaps even exploding here since it is 1 of the Big 4

They keep saying you won’t see it coming. Y’all think that implies a big shock? CENA?!

My picks:

The Fiend pins Braun
Randy pins Drew
Profits retain with Montez pinning Andrade
Seth pins Dominik
Bayley pins Asuka
Asuka makes Sasha tap out
Mandy pins Sonya

I find it interesting that we have three derivative No DQ matches tonight. No DQ match has to end in the ring, the Falls Count Anywhere match is self-explanatory, but what separates the Street Fight? I guess it can start anywhere, but does it have to finish in the ring? Then it’s a No DQ match. Can it end anywhere? Then it’s Falls Count Anywhere.

Slight chance Asuka walks out with both belts tonight, but I believe that Bayley retains first with the help of Sasha, but Asuka beats Sasha with Bayley not helping at the end.

By the way, the matches listed in the OP are the only matches that will count in the pick standings. If anything else is added, it will not be a points rewarding match - unless a certain contract is cashed in.

is Otis even really in play right now?

1 of the big hallmarks of the MitB briefcase is the crowd pop that coincides with the holder's music playing while the champion is in a vulnerable position

so I don't believe a cash-in is coming until fans are back in the arenas

also... does anyone really see Otis winning a singles title any time in the near future? is he built up at all as a top singles guy???
