According to the Wrestling Observer, plans for this year’s WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view are appearing to be changing on a near day to day basis. Shawn Michaels was removed off all house shows last week so WWE could sell his injury and so they could hold off his match with Chris Jericho until after SummerSlam. Chris Jericho was also scheduled for several Highlight Reel segments on several house shows, however Jericho announced that this week’s Raw Highlight Reel was the last. Shawn Michaels was then announced to be appearing on next week’s Raw, so it looks like that their SummerSlam match will be back on. In regard to the Raw main event, the Wrestling Observer is reporting that the main event could possibly be a four or five way match featuring CM Punk, John Cena, Batista, Kane and JBL. It doesn’t make sense to be giving a John Cena vs. Batista match with only two week’s of Raw to promote the match.
