John Cena and Cody Rhodes will meet face to face one final time.
Both men despise each other. John Cena has screwed over “The American Nightmare” numerous times and Cody has spent the last few weeks making John regret that decision. The war will finally be over on Sunday, August 3, but in the meantime, what will John and Cody Rhodes say before their huge match?
Zelina Vega gets an opportunity to recapture the U.S. Championship. Vega eliminated Giulia from the battle royal at Evolution; regaining some measure of revenge over the woman who’s been viciously attacking her for a month or two. Giulia has been a dominant force over Vega and will have no love loss against kicking her teeth down Vega’s throat. Can Giulia successfully defend her belt?
Aleister Black and Damian Priest will finally square off. This match has been building for weeks due to Black’s frustration with the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion. That finally boiled over when he kicked Priest into next Friday. Priest is coming into the match pissed off and he’ll surely want to return the favor. Will the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion beat the crap out of Black and humble the former NXT Champion?
Also, for the first time in WWE history, Los Garza’s Angel and Berto will hold an open challenge for the AAA Tag Team titles. The duo has been doing pretty well in the Lucha Libre promotion as there’s been a renewed fire under Angel and Berto’s run. Who will step up to fight the AAA Tag Team Champions? And Can they successfully retain their tag titles tonight?
Check out the advertised line-up for the final Smackdown before Summerslam:
- Damian Priest vs. Aleister Black
- Giulia vs. Zelina Vega for the U.S. Championship
- “Los Garza” Angel and Berto hold an open challenge for the AAA Tag Team Titles
