There is plenty of intrigue with Sasha Banks’ mystery partner. The first name to pop up will be Bayley, who has had a storied past with the Boss. They had two, instant classics in NXT in 2015, both of which are well worth going back to the WWE Network to watch. If not the Hugster, then Carmella is another option.

Rusev and Zack Ryder continued their feud. However, it doesn’t seem like WWE has any interest in making these guys look strong. Ryder took a loss on Raw, and was rewarded a title match. Rusev then loses to Dolph Ziggler and gets chased away by Ryder. What’s the meaning of this booking?

Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose continued their rivalry. They will face off on WWE Raw, July 18, with plenty on the line.

This is also the final edition of SmackDown spoilers, as WWE will move the blue brand to Tuesday nights and go live.
