They’re in too. We are less than two weeks away from Summerslam and that means the card should be mostly set. With that little time left, it matters that WWE gets as many matches on the card as need be in time to make the fans buy the event. They put in a lot of effort to that this week, with multiple matches being officially added to the card in one night.

There were two matches added to the Summerslam card this week on Monday Night Raw. First up, Logan Paul accepted a challenge from Ricochet after the two had issues starting back at Money In The Bank earlier this month. Later, Drew McIntyre challenged Gunther for an Intercontinental Title shot at Summerslam, with Gunther accepting. In addition, Shayna Baszler and Ronda Rousey agreed to a fight at Summerslam, though it is not clear what that will mean. Summerslam takes place on August 5 in Detroit, Michigan.
It was a busy night. Check out how some of the matches were made:
Opinion: This is the kind of night that can go a long way for a show, as there were three matches (more or less) added to the show in one episode of Monday Night Raw. That is more than you get to see very often and it should help Summerslam quite a bit. What matters now is making all of the buildup work out and that is what we will probably be seeing in Detroit.
