#3 Braun Strowman vs Kevin Owens
This is a singles match for the Money in the Bank contract with a stipulation that if Braun Strowman loses by any means, he will lose the contract. This two have had a long history between them. Strowman won the money in the bank ladder match throwing Owens off a ladder through two tables. On the next night on Raw, Owens made a futile attempt to befriend Strowman. Strowman attempted a powerslam on Owens but Owens escaped.
Over the next few weeks, Strowman continuously embarrassed Owens including flipping his car over in the parking lot, locking him inside a portable toilet and spraying him in the face with air freshener. As a result, the two wrestlers were locked in a steel cage match at Extreme Rule which saw Kevin Owens defeat Braun Strowman after the latter threw Owens from the top of the cage onto the announce table.
As Owens touched the floor first, he was ruled the winner. After the match, medical personnel took Owens out on a stretcher. On the July 23rd episode of Raw, Owens vowed to take everything away from Strowman. And that is why a rematch has been scheduled at the SummerSlam. This match is going to be awesome and one that you shouldn't miss.
