SPOILER: show

As every knows right now, Dolph Ziggler was awarded a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Title against Dean Ambrose at the WWE SummerSlam event. For those who are expecting Ziggler to walk away with the Championship won’t be pleased to know that Ziggler is only a transitional opponent for Ambrose, and won’t be winning the Title.

Originally WWE had plans for AJ Styles to be feuding with Ambrose, but the company felt that Styles had unfinished business with John Cena so they decide to go with a blow-off match between the two at SummerSlam before Cena leaves to start filming for American Grit.

It’s expected that after the SummerSlam event, WWE will go back on their original plans and have Ambrose feud with Styles for the WWE Championship

Spoiler tags used since it deals with possible current plans and rumors for a couple of matches at Summerslam.

Vince McMahon has been very happy with Randy Orton since his return. He feels he’s been focused and motivated, which has not always been the case in the past. During his time away from the ring, Orton voluntarily spent time in a drug rehab center, which under the Wellness Policy actually removes one of the strikes from his record. Orton’s last suspension was in May 2012 and was officially counted as his second violation. That was in addition to rehabilitating a shoulder injury and getting married. He and his wife also announced they are expecting a child. Vince couldn’t be happier with Randy’s attitude and performance so far on this stint as he heads into SummerSlam to face Brock Lesnar.

As seen on Tuesday’s SmackDown Live episode, Eva Marie’s match against Becky Lynch never got started as she appeared to have suffered some sort of injury in her leg after stepping off the ropes. This injury angle was merely just storyline and she isn’t hurt.

Regarding Eva’s status with the company, we were told that the company is still pushing for her to be one of the top female Superstars of the promotion. They believe Eva has the look of what a female Superstar should look like. So, expect her to eventually be the face of the females on the SmackDown brand and be involved in the major storylines.

Reeves is looking for bookings at bookthebigguy@yahoo.com. He's also going to do a nutritional supplement line and a motivational book among other projects. He's going to be publicly starting on everything this week.

He was on the Busted Open show this week and said he's not sure if it's the right decision, but he doesn't want to give up on his dream to run a company.

Sources tell us all sides are being as careful as possible due to the severity of the injury Nikki is recovering from — and right now, doctors are monitoring how her neck reacts during training ...

We’re told the only thing Nikki can do at the moment is continue training at the Performance Center and hope the bone in her neck has fused properly so doctors can give her the green light.

The decision was made late to instead change it to Raw with the idea that they felt it was more important to make the first split-branded Raw a hot show. Almost none of the wrestlers knew until the match ended and the talent didn't know until very late in the game.

It's a fund raiser for the Foundation and they and WWE are partners.

Eaton was last seen early this AM at the Atlanta airport. The belief is that Eaton, scheduled to fly home last night, missed his connecting flight and was at the airport this AM.

Attempts by his friends and family this AM to contact Eaton have, as of this writing, been unsuccessful.
Supposedly was discovered hours ago eating at a random diner but nobody knows where he went afterwards.

He said he was listening to Monday Night Football and they mentioned Kenny The Snake Stabler, and that is where he got the idea for the gimmick. He didn’t take into account that he hated snakes. He was asked about wrestling Andre The Giant. He said he really didn’t fight him, he was just in the ring with him. He talked about how Andre would pull his hair and farted on him in matches
