Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Sheamus and Cesaro In-Ring Segment: 

After last week, a lot of people are wondering what is going on with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins? Ambrose is thinking the same thing. There’s only one person who can answer that question. Seth Rollins comes down to the ring.  Ambrose is sick and tired of playing these games with Rollins. What’s Rollins deal? Rollins says that Ambrose comes out to save him one week and then does nothing the next. Ambrose said that Kurt Angle was the only reason why teamed together a couple weeks ago?

If that’s the case, why does Ambrose continue to show up? He’s lying to himself. Deep down inside, Ambrose truly cares. If they team again, they can run this place. Let bygones be bygones and put the past in the past, he’s done playing games. Rollins extends out his fist. You got to be kidding me? After last week, Ambrose put his hand out and put his ass on the line last week, but Rollins spat at his face. Rollins says that there’s times where he can’t trust himself.

Maybe they do things different ways and it won’t work out. Or maybe it wasn’t. Maybe their differences are why they worked so well together. There’s nobody who can touch them. Maybe too much has happen, but Rollins is done playing games. Ambrose extends his fist out. Rollins looks at Ambrose fist and he decides to walk away.

Kurt Angle, Paul Heyman, Brock Lesnar, Braun Strowman, Roman Reigns and Samoa Joe In-Ring Segment: 

Let’s shoot from the hip. To squeeze one last rating and one last historic moment out of his client, WWE along with its General Manager Kurt Angle has conspired this evening to have a face to face to face to Champion’s prison fight. Put this beast in the same ring at the same time as the last man standing Braun Strowman, the Samoan rip off Samoa Joe, and the Big Dog Roman Reigns. WWE can have all of the security they want and add 10,000 more because all hell is going to break loose. Brock’s bad mood is justified. You’re not paranoid if you think the world is against you.  At SummerSlam, the unbeatable champion faces not one, not two, but three top challengers.  When Brock is out of the equation, there’ll be a new champion. As a fan, that sucks. The night that Brock Lesnar loses the Universal Championship will be because someone was able to tame the beast.

That guy will be the baddest guy on the planet. That sure as hell won’t be Samoa Joe. Three hundred pounds and desperate to steal the Universal title to take back to his tribe and show his warrior spirit. It won’t be Braun Strowman despite having all of the tools to be champion. Strowman is a monster among men, but in the horror story that will be Sunday. Beast slays monsters. Then there’s Roman Reigns. The man that retired the Undertaker. This is his yard? Reigns yard is in Brock Lesnar’s house and rent is due at SummerSlam. Heyman doesn’t make predictions, he gives spoilers. At SummerSlam two things will happen. One, the conspiracy is successful and they rip the title off Brock Lesnar. You might as well lock Brock Lesnar in a cage. Then there is scenario number two. Brock Lesnar beats Braun Strowman, Samoa Joe, or Roman Reigns.

Brock will prove to the entire world why Heyman has been flapping his gums for fifteen years underselling the greatness of this once and an lifetime athlete.  Samoa Joe joins the conversation. Since day one, Joe told Brock that he doesn’t fear him. At SummerSlam, when he comes for that championship, he’s going to rip it from Brock’s hands after he puts him to sleep in the middle of the ring. Braun Strowman comes down to the ring. Strowman reminds everybody that he was the last man standing. Joe said that the Last Man Standing Match had nothing to do with Strowman. Roman Reigns was stomping Strowman around the building until he arrived. Strowman is no last man standing. He’s just a man who barely stood up while he put Roman down. Strowman and Joe engages in a stare off. Roman Reigns storms into the ring and Spears Samoa Joe. Strowman plants Reigns with a Running PowerSlam. Brock Lesnar and Braun Strowman engages in a pier six brawl which leads to the entire locker room separating both men to close out the show.
