They’re In: Two Matches Officially Set For WWE Summerslam

Two on. We are less than three weeks away from Summerslam and that means the card needs to start coming together. There are several matches that you can probably guess from this far out but that is not the same thing as having them officially added to the card. WWE took care of some of those problems this week, as a pair of top matches were announced.

This week’s Monday Night Raw featured the announcement of two Summerslam matches. First up, Brock Lesnar answered Cody Rhodes’ challenge by attacking him and then accepting a match at Summerslam. This will be their third match, with both of them winning one match each so far. Later in the show, Finn Balor attacked World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and challenged him for a title match. The match was made official later in the show. Rollins previously defeated Balor to retain the title at Money In The Bank.

It was a big night. Check out how the matches were set up:

Opinion: This is how you set up some stuff for Summerslam in one night. There is a good chance that we will have some more matches set for the show this week on SmackDown and that will cover about half of the card or so. WWE is covering a lot of ground in a hurry and hopefully they can close everything else up with enough time to build towards a rather nice Summerslam.
