When it comes to non-title matches, two tag-team contests will even happen. WWE is injecting some superstar star energy into SummerSlam, having musician Jelly Roll staff up with Randy Orton to tackle Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre, paying off a feud that started final month on “SmackDown” and on Saturday Night’s Main Event. The opposite tag-team match pits cousins Roman Reigns and Jey Uso in opposition to Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed — members of Seth Rollins’ heel faction on “Uncooked.”
Lastly, Sami Zayn and Karrion Kross meet as soon as once more in a singles bout, persevering with an ongoing angle that has simmered on WWE programming.
