With that shocking revelation, SmackDown comes to a close and this is Jojo, signing off. See you folks at SummerSlam!

Joe enters right on cue and reads out a letter from a member of the WWE Universe who claims to have lost his faith in AJ and is not a fan of his anymore. Joe reveals that the letter is from Styles' wife and that she wrote that she wishes Joe wins the WWE title at SummerSlam so that AJ can feel what it's like to lose the one thing he loves the most.
