For the first time since 2007, WWE heads to Detroit for one of its “Big Four” PPV events. SummerSlam is coming to Ford Field on August 5.

Both performed top-rope clotheslines and got into it at the Money in the Bank event. Now they will face off in another singles match for Paul since signing with WWE.
Regardless of the outcome, Paul will look to leave Detroit in time to make his brother Jake’s boxing fight against Nate Diaz in Texas.
