#3 Best: Summerslam plans are underway

This certainly feels like a very fresh feud
We like the Orton and Rusev pairing and are surprised that they really haven't had a full-blown program before this.

This feud certainly feels fresh and we're certain that it will elevate both men; Rusev, who needs momentum and how, and Orton, whose feuds really haven't clicked, all year long. The Summerslam match should be very good indeed.
We also like the fact that because of the kayfabe eye injury to the referee, Shane McMahon has made himself a part of the AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens Summerslam match. This will give the match an air of authenticity, and can even build to a program between the two men someday.
