At first glance, the inclusion of this match may seem like "which one of these is not like the other" in terms of the rest of the potential matches on this list, but looking a little further will show this as a fresh match-up. While this contest would not feature any up-and-comers or NXT call-ups, it would involve two WWE legends that have never faced each other one-on-one before.

With Shane-O-Mac seeming to be a regular fixture on WWE programming heading into the Summer, a match at SummerSlam should be expected. The current job-share angle with Stephanie McMahon is certainly on borrowed time as the two McMahons' problems will come to a head before long. When the inevitable "Winner Takes RAW" blow-off happens, who better to represent The Authority than the former WWE Champion and husband of Stephanie?

After all, Triple H would have a vested interest in the outcome of the Shane/Stephanie power struggle so why not take matters into his own hands for one of the premier matches at SummerSlam '16?
