The undisputed WWE championship and the world heavyweight championship will both be won during the very first two-night Summerslam this weekend.
Gunther will defend the world heavyweight championship against CM Punk, and John Cena, probably in his last live event Summerslam Premium, will defend the undisputed WWE championship in a street fight.

There is a person who is looming on the whole scene of the world championship, and he is Seth Rollins.
Rollins seemed to have suffered a knee injury in his match of the main event on Saturday evening against the Knight. He came lame when he was trying to win a Moonsault on Knight. The referee briefly stopped the match, but when he decided to continue, Knight took advantage of it and won.
Since then, Rollins has not appeared on “Monday Night Raw”. Instead, his consultation, Paul Heyman, held his money in the banking case while Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed continued to wreak havoc on Jey USO and Roman Reigns.
Rollins only approached the knee injury once – when he filled Rich Eisen’s host in his radio show.
“There was an imagery. It was a little too swollen. So we are going to take a look, let’s hope it in a week or two here in Los Angeles,” he said. “Try to get a kind of firm diagnosis, and we can go.

These remarks were made on July 16. It has not been seen or heard since, and we do not know how injured Rollins is. Heyman has teased a plan B with Breakker, but that has not yet untied.
Rollins could collect his bank contract at any time and fit into a match for one or the other title. This could make the moment for one or the other huge title match. But the biggest question is what title would go.
“The Revolutionary” could very well ensure that he keeps his promise to ensure that Punk never holds a championship again and enters his match against Gunther. He could also do it without collecting his contract and opting for the major price.
Rollins and Rhodes have argued in the past and the two have teamed up with Wrestlemania 40 to face the Roche Roman reigns. The undisputed WWE championship is the largest WWE Grand Prix and removing the title of Rhodes and Cena would certainly run WWE. Rollins almost cashed the night of the champions.

The third possibility is that Rollins is actually injured and that the injury is not so-called “work”. But injured or not, Rollins holds the cards during the biggest event in WWE.
