He said he's a two-time WWE Champion and he did it without a briefcase or being a third generation Superstar. He ended Triple H's career. He doesn't need the fans and he has what he needs, the WWE Championship.
* Chris Jericho vs. John Cena in a loser must quit Team Cena at SummerSlam. Cena beat Jericho when he reversed the Walls of Jericho into the STF, making Jericho tap immediately (I'm told he tapped the second Cena hooked it). After the match, Cena told Jericho he doesn't want him off Team Cena at SummerSlam because he is the best in the world at what he does. He says if he leaves he's letting everyone else down, even himself. Jericho gets out of the ring and heads to the back up the ramp.

The General Manager emails in and says Edge & Chris Jericho will face John Cena & Bret Hart on Raw next week (8/9) with The Nexus as lumberjacks.
* Randy Orton invites Sheamus to ringside for his match against The Miz tonight.
* The Great Khali vs. Ted DiBiase w/Maryse. Wade Barrett and Skip Sheffield come out during the match. They grab the Million Dollar Belt which distracts DiBiase. Khali applies the Vise Grip to win the match. Barrett gives the belt to Maryse. Khali and Barrett look at each other then Khali exits the ring and leaves.
* The Miz comes out and cuts a promo and tells Randy Orton his moment is after his match at SummerSlam. Orton comes out. The Miz vs. Randy Orton. WWE Champion Sheamus watches the match from the ramp. The Miz hits a lot of offense in the match but ends up getting hit with the RKO, allowing Orton to pickup the victory. After the match, Sheamus tries to get into the ring but Orton stares him down from viper position.
