#6 WWE SummerSlam 2021: Bobby Lashley vs. Goldberg (WWE Championship)

While the build to Bobby Lashley vs. Goldberg for SummerSlam hasn't been terrible, a standard feud is not a bar one should set for the WWE Championship match at the event.

At this stage of Goldberg's career, the buildup to his matches all feel the same, but credit goes to WWE for adding a different element to this one.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

The WWE Hall of Famer brought his son, Gage, to RAW multiple times. He has played a role in the build, five years after first appearing on WWE television. It remains the most compelling part of Goldberg's feud with Lashley. But will the match deliver at SummerSlam? We'll have to wait and see.


#5 WWE SummerSlam 2021: The Usos vs. Rey and Dominik Mysterio (SmackDown Tag Team Championship)

The Usos and The Mysterios wrestled a solid match at Money in the Bank, where the heels picked up the SmackDown Tag Team Championship. The buildup to their SummerSlam match has been quite simple, but effective. Both teams got the upper hand in singles matches through sneaky tactics.

It seems like the story now is about Dominik Mysterio going beyond his station here. WWE has teased some dissension between the young superstar and his legendary father, so that is something to look out for. One can expect another solid outing with the blue brand's tag team titles on the line.
