Summer blockbuster or just another flop?

The superstars of Raw and SmackDown are gearing up for WWE's 'Biggest Party Of The Summer' as SummerSlam is almost upon us.

The 32nd-annual event of its kind, this year's offering will see Seth Rollins look to reclaim his Universal Championship from 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar, while Kofi Kingston defends his WWE Title against 'The Viper' Randy Orton and Becky Lynch clashes with Natalya for the Raw Women's Championship.

As problematic as some of the builds for those respective matches were, they could still end up providing the WWE Universe with an entertaining evening of action. That said, the most talked-about contests may be the ones that involve the in-ring returns of two legends, as 'The Queen' Charlotte Flair battles Toronto's own Trish Stratus while Dolph Ziggler will face off against the returning Goldberg.

Taking all of that into account, SummerSlam is sure to be an evening that will, for better or worse, get fans talking. Thus, with that in mind, let's delve into some of the things we might see take place, why they're probably going to happen and, if they do, what kind of impact they could have moving forward.

7. Roman Reigns' Attacker Will Be Revealed

Roman Reigns ain't had it easy as of late, what with falling victim to collapsing scaffolding and almost getting run over, but that isn't going to stop 'The Big Dog' from figuring out who the mastermind behind all of it really is.

While names like Samoa Joe and Daniel Bryan have popped up as likely suspects, Reigns' hard-hitting investigation on SmackDown Live resulted in Buddy Murphy naming Rowan as the possible assailant. While this, of course, suggests that Bryan could have been involved, it was still a rather ambiguous way to end the final edition of the blue brand before SummerSlam. However, when you break it all down, it begins to make sense.

The four men currently involved in this situation (Reigns, Joe, Bryan and Rowan) aren't scheduled to compete at SummerSlam so, considering that three of them are among WWE's top stars and the fact that the 'Biggest Party of the Summer' is the second-biggest pay-per-view of the year, you can rest assured that they'll all be featured in some capacity - so it's highly likely that we'll end up getting some form of angle involving all of them.

Could Reigns end up teaming with the wrongly-accused Joe to take on Bryan and Rowan, or was the Samoan submission-machine really his attacker all along? Whatever WWE has planned, we should expect answers on Sunday.
