SummerSlam is the next PPV in WWE, and is one of the most important PPVs on the WWE calendar, along with Royal Rumble, Survivor Series, and, of course, WrestleMania.

As I've mentioned earlier in this article, Baron Corbin never cut it in his feud with Seth Rollins, and with failing rates and viewership, WWE needed to throw a curve ball by making Lesnar Universal champion and also set up an exciting match for SummerSlam, which happens next month.

All said and done, despite his same set of moves, Lesnar is still a big draw (at least that's what WWE and Vince McMahon make us believe with the constant booking of Lesnar in big title matches) and is sure to bring in the fans, while also giving SummerSlam a big PPV feel, that may have lacked in a Rollins-Corbin match.
