According to various reports, Seth Rollins will defeat Dominik Mysterio at WWE SummerSlam 2020 but later get attacked by Rey Mysterio, continuing the Seth Rollins vs Rey Mysterio feud. Rey Mysterio could then join forces with Dominik and the two could end up taking down Seth Rollins and team together. Apollo Crews, on the other hand, could retain his title as WWE has been giving him major push for the past few months. However, there is speculation that MVP could become the new champion with the help of his partners Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin.

Before the match could begin, the lights at the Performance Center started flickering and commentator Tom Phillips asked the WWE officials to look into the situation. The officials fixed the lights during the commercial break and after returning, the title match commenced. Apollo Crews delivered a snap suplex before working on MVP’s arm. The challenger escaped and blasted Crews with a straight kick to the face.

MVP kept punishing the champion for a couple of minutes before Apollo Crews recovered and grounded him with a spinebuster. Apollo Crews then delivered a powerbomb to win the match and retain his title. After the match, MVP picked up the mic and claimed that he lost the match because of the flickering lights. He then issued a challenge to Apollo Crews for a rematch at WWE SummerSlam 2020, which the champion duly accepted.
