WWE: Top 5 storylines going into SummerSlam

We’re only a couple of weeks away from the biggest party of the summer – SummerSlam. Going into the PPV, the top three bouts on the card can make this PPV one of the best this year, if not the best. With some incredible match ups, a lot can be expected from the Pay Per View, but in the end, it is upto the WWE to deliver. After months of anticipation, WWE finally heard the voices of the WWE Universe and put Daniel Bryan in the main event match against the WWE champion, John Cena. Also, Christian won the number one contender’s match this past week on Smackdown! and he will be facing Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight championship. With the ‘Paul Heyman guys’ finally turning on each other, CM Punk will go toe to toe with the behemoth, Brock Lesnar. In this article, I take a look at the top 5 storylines going into the PPV.

5. Randy Orton’s win at the Money in the Bank PPV

At the Money in the Bank PPV, Randy Orton achieved something that no one saw coming, retrieving the Money in the Bank briefcase during the All – Stars match. With Orton now having the opportunity to cash – in the briefcase anytime he wants within the next year, he has made it clear that he will cash it in at any opportunistic moment he gets. If we believe the rumours, Orton is scheduled to cash – in his briefcase at SummerSlam PPV, thus defeating the winner of the WWE championship match between John Cena and Daniel Bryan, and finally turning heel in the process. With Vince saying that neither Cena nor Bryan are the WWE champions he wants, this may also lead to Orton aligning himself with Vince McMahon.
