I feel like the best thing you could do here would be have Kofi escape with the belt in kind of a fluky way then Joe takes it at SummerSlam. This feud has some life in it where you really could stand to get a few more weeks of TV time out of it.
That said I think the second best option would be just having Joe win here. If only because Joe beats pretty much every viable alternative option to take the belt. That said I'm kind of suspecting a Lesnar cash-in tonight, would explain the Shelton Benjamin thing.

I hope Black vs. Cesaro gets a decent amount of time, because I miss Black wrestling and it could be the best match of the night if it does. And even though Cesaro can't really afford to lose, Black's been talking a lot of shit these last couple months about everyone being too afraid to fight him so he needs the win.
I'm picturing a crazy ass finish where Cesaro goes for a springboard Swiss uppercut or something and Black catches him with Black Mass.

If this show is half as good as the cricket World Cup final just was, this’ll be awesome.

Bálor vs. Nakamura for the IC Title just confirmed on WWE NOW for the Kickoff Show. And now the catch-22 of “Nothing on the pre-show is important” versus “This important thing shouldn’t be on the pre-show” will come to the surface. And it seemingly will always be this way until the day they stop putting matches on them or they put a Roman Reigns or Charlotte Flair match on it.

Owens v Ziggler also announced. Both guys seem really motivated for this feud/match so my hope is Owens can get Dolph to pull his own weight in a match that could steal the show

Not going to lie, this ppv feels kinda dire and I don't expect much to happen as SummerSlam's next. However, I'll be here to watch.

I've been desperately struggling to find things to watch the past few days - pretty much because I was doing so beforehand, ended up turning to Night Vale for this, and now am wanting to slow down on how quickly I was burning through it - and I'm just going to skip this show entirely. Really just no interest in much of anything on this card outside of Joe / Kofi and even that I'm not really dying for.

Undefeated of the South East, Master Billie Kay, winner of the 7th Gundam Fight, remains The WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
And her Young Lion is there too.

Not a lot to get excited about tonight.
- We've already seen some iteration of Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Finn Balor, The Usos vs. The Revival, Bobby Lashley vs. Braun Strowman (in their best possible match a few weeks ago on Raw), AJ Styles vs. Richocet, the SmackDown Tag Team championship match, and the SmackDown Women's Championship match.
- A tag team match featuring four men with a median age of 43, despite two of them being in their early 30s.
- A continuation of ample screen time dedicated to the least charismatic on-screen couple this side of Angela and Andy from "The Office."
- Baron Corbin in the main event
- A total placeholder feel to the event considering SummerSlam is next month, meaning that anything that happens tonight will just serve to set the table for the pay-per-view that matters in August.
Cesaro vs. Aleister Black and the WWE Championship match are the only two matches I'm even remotely interested in. I'll have Extreme Rules on in the background, but if I'm watching anything tonight, it's the rubber match between the Dodgers and Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball.

Really don't understand the lack of gimmick matches. So weird. Unless they're planning some insane stunt in the Braun or Shane match that would overshadow everything then it makes no sense. At least gimme a crappy stipulation like a stairs match or SOMETHING.

And it seemingly will always be this way until the day they stop putting matches on them or they put a Roman Reigns or Charlotte Flair match on it. Nah the problem is that they don';t make anything on there feel important. Title match goes on? It's for the afterthought title that can barely get onto TV, and rather than having an interesting build for it, it had a match happen on Smackdown and now suddenly is on PPV. It's not about them not putting top stars on the pre-show, it's that even when something that should be important goes on the pre-show the presentation treats it like it's not. What they need to do is just actually treat it like it's important, and the real problem is that WWE is really, really terrible right now at bringing importance and relevance to what happens on its show.

I'd put Black vs. Cesaro on the preshow and move Finnsuke (you like what I did there? No? Okay) to the main card, since it's a title match and all.
