Dominik Mysterio-Seth Rollins WWE SummerSlam Match Now A Street Fight
Expect a kendo stick or two...
The match pitting Dominik Mysterio against Seth Rollins at next Sunday's WWE SummerSlam will now be a street fight, as announced by the company.
Rollins previously said he would allow the inexperienced Dominik the use of weapons in the match, when the two were at their recent contract signing. Each man has brutalized the other with kendo stick shots in recent attacks.
Dominik's father Rey Mysterio is expected to make an appearance on this Monday's episode of Raw, in conjunction with the match's build. It will be Mysterio's first time appearing on TV since he was "de-eyed" at the hands of Rollins at last month's Extreme Rules.

*WWE World: Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Randy Orton
*WWE Universal: Braun Strowman (c) vs. The Fiend
*Raw Women's: Sasha Banks (c) vs. Asuka
