10 Things WWE Still Needs To Do Before Summerslam

2. Roman Reigns And Randy Orton In A Pull Apart Brawl

The Reigns/Orton feud has been simmering for a while now. They could have had a singles match two or three PPVs ago, but WWE knew they wanted to save it for SummerSlam so give WWE credit for saving it and building it up to where it is now. Two weeks ago was the big angle where Orton got his hands on Reigns, beat him up all around the ringside area and looked dominant in that segment. That was done to make it look like the "real Orton" is back as if it was some fake version for a while. It's the WWE of saying he was more aggressive for this feud. That's fine. Nothing wrong with pushing the angle like that. What they need to do at this point is increase the physicality a bit. It appears as though they might be doing the deal where Reigns isn't going to get his hands on Orton until SummerSlam, but it would be better if they had a wild brawl on Monday. They could make it look like Reigns is about to Spear him only for Orton to bail and the announcers can start yelling about how Reigns will have to wait until SummerSlam to get his hands on him.
