6 things that could happen on the SmackDown before WWE SummerSlam 2019

#1 Randy Orton attacks Kofi Kingston

Kofi Kingston challenged Randy Orton to a WWE Championship match at SummerSlam a couple of weeks ago on SmackDown. Orton came out and accepted the challenge, which was no surprise to the WWE Universe. Orton also tried to hit an RKO on Kingston during his match against Samoa Joe but failed miserably. Instead, the WWE Champion returned the favor with a Trouble In Paradise.

The rivalry just started, and things look pretty hot already. The WWE Champion and The Viper could not meet in person last week, as Orton recorded an interview against Kingston, and left for a vacation to the Maldives. He strongly criticized Kingston in it and called his win at WrestleMania 35 a fluke. The Viper also promised to take away the WWE Title from Kingston.

Orton most probably hasn't forgotten what Kingston did to him when they last met, so he'll be looking for revenge tonight. Knowing Orton, he will most probably try to confuse Kingston with his mind games. We can also expect an RKO outta nowhere on the WWE Champion.

As we get closer to SummerSlam, expect the beef between Orton and Kingston to get bigger, because the two have despised each other for 11 years, and will be looking to get the upper hand heading into the 'Biggest Party of the Summer'.
