Edge vs Seth Rollins II is official for SmackDown next week in Madison Square Garden. The blockbuster SummerSlam match will be run back, but what led to it? Last week, Edge said his focus on SmackDown will be to capture the Universal Championship.

Seth Rollins sarcastically said that if he wants to fight his way back to the Universal title, he needs to be more like The Rated-R Superstar. This week on SmackDown, Seth Rollins faced his arch-rival, Cesaro.

Talking about Cesaro would require a whole other slide. But to sum up how his momentum has crashed, he was essentially used as a sacrificial lamb on SmackDown. The match ended in a DQ and Seth Rollins launched a vicious assault on the Swiss Cyborg.

He used a lot of Edge's moves and dirty tactics, and he even called out The Rated-R Superstar. Edge finally came to make the save and drove Rollins away. Backstage, The WWE Hall Of Famer realized how out-of-control Rollins is getting, and he offered to put a stop to it.

Next week, Edge vs Seth Rollins II will take place on SmackDown in MSG. What will be the finish? In all likeliness, Seth Rollins may get back his win in a nasty way to set up a stipulation grudge match for a potential trilogy at Extreme Rules 2021.
