Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar's feud is set to continue into the summer, with reports recently indicating the two competitors will have their rubber match at SummerSlam on August 5 in Detroit, Michigan.

It was noted a stipulation that hasn't been used "in a while" will be booked for Rhodes vs. Lesnar III and Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has since reported one of the ideas on the table for the blow-off is a Bullrope Match. That being the stipulation is not currently set in stone and other ideas are on the table but a Bullrope Match has at least been pitched.

WWE have booked Texas Bullrope matches in the past, in which two wrestlers are tied together with a rope that often has a cowbell at each end. The match can either end in pinfall or submission, or in the case of Eddie Guerrero vs. JBL at Great American Bash 2004, a wrestler has to touch all four corners of the ring without interruption to emerge victorious.

Rhodes and Lesnar have been in a programme since the Raw after WrestleMania 39. Their series is currently tied at one win apiece.
