SummerSlam 2017 Randy Orton v Rusev

Prepare for all-out war as Randy Orton will lock horns with Rusev at The Biggest Event of the Summer.

Convinced that he has not been taken seriously in recent weeks, an irate Rusev followed up a victory on the Aug. 1 episode of SmackDown LIVE by voicing his discontent to the entire WWE Universe. It seemed that he was particularly bent out of shape about being left off the card for SummerSlam.

In response to Rusev’s outburst, The Viper opted to step into the ring with The Bulgarian Brute and offer the clever retort of an impromptu RKO.

A two-time United States Champion, Rusev stands as a truly no-nonsense competitor who has taken on everyone from Roman Reigns to John Cena. His brutal style and immense strength makes him an extremely dangerous opponent to anyone who steps in the ring with him.

However, will he be able to take down the 13-time World Champion? Orton is not only an extremely gifted athlete who has proven himself in the squared circle time and time again, but the third-generation Superstar is also a master of mind games armed with an unrelenting temper.

With the two Superstars on a collision course for The Biggest Event of the Summer, will SmackDown LIVE survive the mayhem that is surely on its way in the coming weeks?
