WWE SummerSlam 2019: 5 matches likely to be added to the card

#2 Dolph Ziggler vs The Miz

When the build to this match began on last week's Raw, it looked to be an attempted re-hash of the magic Dolph Ziggler and The Miz created three years ago. However, the MizTV segment on SmackDown really helped this match and has made it much more interesting. Ziggler exchanged some strong words with Shawn Michaels, even calling HBK himself a "second-rate Shawn Michaels", before Superkicking him.

This added quite some intensity to a feud that seemed pretty cold. Ziggler had been in an endless circle of whining how "it should have been him" and it was getting really tiring, while the Miz's babyface character had been utterly destroyed from the remains of his feud with Shane McMahon. This match at SummerSlam could turn both of these WWE veterans' fortunes around.

Hopefully, they can re-discover the magic of their Intercontinental Championship feud in 2016, only this time, with their roles reversed.
