New Grudge Match Set For Summerslam

There’s always room for a grudge match. A wrestling match can be put together for a lot of reasons, with one of the easiest being that two people do not like each other. Sometimes that is as complicated as it needs to be: two people are made at each other over some kind of an issue and they are going to fight about it. That is going to be the case at Summerslam, as a new match has been added.

This week on SmackDown, Edge challenged Seth Rollins to a match at Summerslam, with Rollins accepting. Edge and Rollins have been having issues in recent weeks over Rollins thinking he deserves the Universal Title shot that Edge has already received. This led to the two of them attacking each other and ultimately their match. The two have never fought in a one on one match.

This is a long time coming. Check out how we got here:

Edge looks to settle his score with Seth Rollins: SmackDown, July 23, 2021

Edge challenges Seth Rollins to SummerSlam showdown: SmackDown, Aug. 6, 2021

Opinion: The match being brought up and accepted is hardly surprising as this has been a pretty obvious Summerslam match for a good while now. What matters is the way the match was set up and then they capitalized on the story. It worked well here and now the two of them can have their match on the big stage. They aren’t messing around here and it is working well.

What do you think of the way the match has been built? Who do you have winning? Let us know in the comments below.
