Summerslam 2022 builds have already begun on WWE Raw even before Money in the Bank 2022 was over. Now that the gimmick-based event is done, the storylines eyeing the biggest party of the summer will officially kick-off.
The Miz will address Logan Paul, possibly announcing the expected match for the upcoming event. The Judgment Day faction will be in action against a father-son tag team duo with a massive return lurking around the match. Also, there would be fallouts from what transpired at Money in the Bank when WWE Raw airs from the Pechanga Arena in San Diego, California.
With WWE Raw hitting San Diego, the hometown hero has to be on the card. This is the reason why Rey Mysterio returns to action, tonight teaming up with his son Dominik Mysterio against the Judgment Day’s Finn Balor and Damian Priest.

The Mysterios picked up a win over The Judgment Day via disqualification on a bygone episode of WWE Main Event. Then the two teams appeared in backstage segments on last week’s WWE Raw for a confrontation. Balor and Priest approached the father and son duo backstage when Balor brought up how it will soon be the 20th anniversary of Rey Mysterio in WWE, much like Randy Orton and John Cena.
Then Balor proceeded to taunt Rey by saying that there should be no celebratory reason as Rey isn’t teaching Dominik how to be successful. Priest insisted that Dom needed better guidance and Judgment Day was open to recruiting him. This led to Rey issuing the challenge in his hometown of San Diego, California and the match was made, official.

A new segment for the July 4 episode of WWE Raw has been announced and in it, The Miz will respond to Logan Paul’s challenge for a match at SummerSlam 2022.
At WrestleMania 38, Paul returned to WWE to become The Miz’s new tag team partner as they would go on to defeat Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio in a tag team match. But The Miz would betray Paul by dropping him with a Skull Crushing Finale after the match.
Then Paul signed a contract with the WWE, last week and during his signing, the YouTube star stated that he would be looking forward to getting his revenge against The Miz. It’s likely that The Miz vs. Logan Paul would be officially announced on WWE Raw.
Speaking of the red brand, it now has a new United States Champion in Bobby Lashley. At Money in the Bank, he defeated Theory via submission to become a three-time United States Champion and thereby start the All-Mighty Era.

Before dropping the title, Theory had held the title since the April 18 episode of WWE Raw where He had defeated Finn Balor to become the champion. He may have lost the title but then he captured the Men’s Money in the Bank briefcase by competing in the match as the eighth competitor. We can guess that the outspoken superstar will have a lot to say when he appears on the show with the MITB briefcase.
In the women’s division, WWE Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair still holds the top position as she defeated Carmella to retain her title at Money in the Bank. But after the match, the unsuccessful challenger delivered a sneak attack on the champion, hinting that the feud isn’t over. Hence, a rematch could be announced between the two in the near future.
