With most of the matches on the card already being announced, it's all about the momentum going into the big day now. That being said, how will the concerned Superstars fare in the build up to the big event?
Such a question assumes particular importance when Roman Reigns faces Braun Strowman in a Last Man Standing match, with both men perfectly capable of maiming the other and shelving them for an extended period of time.
And while we're on injuries, will the shoulder injury sustained by Bayley against Nia Jax on last week's episode of Raw prevent her from participating at WWE SummerSlam?

Skimming through all of these points of discussion and more, here is our preview for this week's episode of Monday Night Raw.

It was a heart moving gesture as Dean Ambrose came out to prevent Sheamus and Cesaro from ganging up on former teammate Seth Rollins, only to eat a Brogue Kick for his troubles.

But is it enough to get them back on the same page and firing on all cylinders as they look to knock Sheamus and Cesaro off their perch?
