One-half of the Good Brothers, Karl Anderson will be in singles action against Karrion Kross. The latter has been feuding with AJ Styles lately. Last week, Kross attacked Anderson backstage and put him in a sleeper hold. As a result, a match between them is set for this Friday. Will Karl be able to defeat Karrion Kross?
What Else to Expect?
The build-up for WWE Women’s Championship has been violent so far with all 3 opponents attacks on each other every week along with the involvement of Ms. Money in the Bank Iyo Sky and Bayley. Charlotte Flair beat Iyo last week. Will Bianca Belair be in action this week?
Last week, Roman Reigns stopped Solo Sikoa from attacking Jey Uso. Will Solo or Paul Heyman try something behind Roman’s back?
Will any of the new matches get announced for SummerSlam?
