SummerSlam 2022 builds continued through this week’s episode of Raw starting with the opening segment. A big title match was announced for the premium live event set for later the month. United States Championship will be on the line as Bobby Lashley will defend the belt in a rematch from Money in the Bank.
The post-Money In The Bank episode of RAW kicked off with Bobby Lashley celebrating his US Title win at the latest bygone premium live event, this past Saturday night. Lashley said he will be a dominant Champion and no one from the WWE roster will be able to dethrone him from his title reign. But he was interrupted right away in his promo session.

Mr. Money In The Bank Theory came out and announced that he will face Lashley for the United States Championship at SummerSlam 2022 on July 30th. This will be a rematch between the two after Lashley defeated Theory for the US Title via the Hurt Lock submission at Money In The Bank. It appears that higher authorities are helping out to keep Theory elevating his status, all the time.

Theory continued his promo on Raw as he planned to cash in his MITB contract after the Last Man Standing match between Roman Reigns (c) and Brock Lesnar for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title at SummerSlam 2022. He said that the winner of that match should be ready for a cash-in. The brass superstar also claimed that once the match comes to an end, he’ll leave the event as the ‘greatest champion in WWE history.
After the announcement around SummerSlam 2022, Theory also tried to attack Lashley with his Money In The Bank briefcase, but Lashley hit him with an elbow and planted him with a spinebuster. This caused Theory to retreat through the ramp. Later, Lashley and Street Profits defeated The Alpha Academy and Theory on Raw in a six-man tag team match.
The rivalry between Lashley and Theory has been ongoing for quite some time. It started at the beginning of June after Theory confronted Lashley on the Raw after Hell In A Cell PLE. After battling out at Money In The Bank, the two will now clash, once again at SummerSlam 2022.
