Following tonight’s episode of WWE Raw on the USA Network, another championship match has been made official for SummerSlam on August 23.
The new match will be a rematch of the one that opened tonight’s show, as Apollo Crews defends the United States Title against MVP.
WWE.com writes:
If The Hurt Business wants to truly start booming, they’ll have to figure out how to stop Apollo Crews first.
Crews will once again face MVP in a United States Title Match at SummerSlam, as the rivalry reaches a boiling point. MVP brazenly declared himself the United States Champion at The Horror Show at WWE Extreme Rules after an attack from Bobby Lashley put Crews out of commission. Flanked by The All Mighty and Shelton Benjamin, MVP was oozing with confidence until Crews defeated the veteran in a United States Championship Match on Raw.
Can Crews keep the upper-hand against MVP and his imposing allies? Or will MVP help usher in a gold rush for The Hurt Business?
The matches that WWE has officially confirmed for SummerSlam thus far are as follows:
- Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Randy Orton – WWE Championship
- Street Profits (c) vs. Angel Garza & Andrade – Raw Tag Team Championship
- Dominik Mysterio vs. Seth Rollins
- Apollo Crews (c) vs. MVP – United States Championship
