AJ Styles has more to say to Samoa Joe

WWE Champion AJ Styles returned to SmackDown LIVE last week with strong words for his SummerSlam opponent,
Samoa Joe, one week after the challenger insinuated that Styles is a poor father. The Phenomenal One said The
Samoan Submission Machine would walk into Brooklyn for their championship battle, but he might have trouble walking out.
Apparently, the WWE Champion has more to say, as he will be responding further to his SummerSlam opponent.
Is Styles going to lay into Joe with another fiery retort before Sunday, or are Samoa Joe’s mind games working?

SmackDown Women’s Title Match participants come face to face

The SmackDown Women’s Championship Match at SummerSlam is sure to be a battle for the ages, with Carmella,
Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch looking to walk out of The Biggest Event of the Summer with championship gold.
Tensions will certainly be running high when all three women come face to face on SmackDown LIVE. The friendship
between The Queen and The Irish Lass Kicker has certainly been put to the test in recent weeks; will The
Princess of Staten Island look to turn the two buds against one another before SummerSlam?

Aiden English goes one-on-one with Andrade “Cien” Almas

After costing Rusev & Lana a trio of singles matches against Andrade “Cien” Almas and Zelina Vega, Aiden English
has vowed to make it up to his friends. English’s quest for penance apparently begins with battling El Idolo himself.
The Drama King took to Twitter over the weekend, calling out Almas for a one-on-one battle on SmackDown LIVE.

The New Day clash with SAnitY in Six-Man Tag Team showdown

The New Day emerged victorious from a four-team tournament to earn a SmackDown Tag Team Title opportunity at SummerSlam,
but before they take on The Bludgeon Brothers in Brooklyn, they will clash with another dangerous crew on
SmackDown LIVE: SAnitY.
Can The New Day control the chaos in this Six-Man Tag Team battle, or will Eric Young’s crew soften them up for
Harper & Rowan?

Paige promises Mandy Rose & Sonya Deville an opportunity

Frustrated with how she and Sonya Deville have been treated lately, Mandy Rose lashed out at her former Absolution
teammate and current SmackDown LIVE General Manager Paige on Twitter this past weekend, saying that Paige favors her
former teammates in PCB, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch.
