After further goading from Heyman, Triple H attacked him. On the June 18 episode of Raw, Heyman made an appearance, rejecting Triple H's challenge on behalf of Lesnar. Triple H returned at No Way Out, not only addressing Lesnar and the lawsuits brought against WWE, but also challenging him to a match at SummerSlam, in exchange for his dropping the lawsuits that his legal representative, Paul Heyman, made against WWE and Triple H. This led to a brawl between Lesnar and Triple H resulting in the latter having his arm broken by Lesnar via the Kimura armbar. Triple H (in his corporate role as Chief Operations Officer) intervened, and declared that the contract Lesnar had agreed to upon re-signing with WWE was still valid and thus Lesnar could not add any other clauses to it. On the Apepisode of Raw, Lesnar attempted to renegotiate his contract with General Manager John Laurinaitis.
In recent weeks, Punk claimed that even though he was WWE Champion, he often felt as if he was pushed to the background in favor of stars like Cena and The Rock. However, Michaels would not make it to SummerSlam after Lesnar used a kimura lock to break his arm on the Augepisode of Raw.In another match, CM Punk defended the WWE Championship against John Cena and Big Show in a triple threat match. Then on the Augepisode of Raw, Shawn Michaels made an appearance to announce he'll be in Triple H's corner at SummerSlam. On that night, Heyman again declined the challenge, but after Triple H's wife Stephanie McMahon slapped him (due to making remarks about their children), Heyman accepted on behalf of Lesnar.
The following week, Cena and Big Show would fight in a number one contender's match for a shot at the WWE Championship at SummerSlam. Punk would then attack Rock, hitting him with a GTS and turning heel for the first time since 2011. After Big Show's interference led to a disqualification, The Rock rushed the ring to help fend off Big Show. That same night, Cena cashed in his Money in the Bank contract to challenge Punk for the title.
After a loss to Sheamus in a street fight on July 30 episode of Raw, Bryan underwent a psychological exam (under orders from AJ as retaliation for finding out that Bryan planned on having her committed to a mental institution after they were legally married) and was attacked by Kane (who claimed he was Bryan's "anger management therapist"). He was later confronted and insulted by CM Punk, The Rock, and even guest star Charlie Sheen. However, during the ceremony, AJ rejected Bryan, and it was announced that she was named as the new GM of Raw by Vince McMahon, which led Bryan to get angry and destroy the wedding decorations in the ring.

On the August 6 edition of Raw Ziggler faced Alex Riley, but lost due to being distracted by Jericho. On the July 27 edition of SmackDown, Jericho (wearing Ziggler's gear) threw Ziggler in the ring to be Brogue Kicked by Sheamus. On Raw 1000 during a six-man tag team match, Ziggler hit his tag-team partner Jericho, causing him to lose the match.
Ten months later, on the July 16 episode of "Raw", Mysterio made his return attacking Del Rio with a 619. During a house show, Mysterio faced Miz again, but during the match, Mysterio was injured, forcing him to undergo surgery and remain inactive, which was blamed on storyline to an attack by Alberto Del Rio. In 2011, The Miz and Rey Mysterio feuded after Mysterio defeated Miz in a tournament finals to crown a new WWE Champion.
Since April, World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus entered a feud with Alberto Del Rio around the championship after Del Rio defeated Sheamus by disqualification on the April 6 episode of SmackDown, after Del Rio faked being hit with a steel chair, winning a championship opportunity in the future. On the August 10 episode of SmackDown, The Prime Time Players defeated Primo & Epico by disqualification after Kingston and Truth, who were at the commentators table, attacked Washington, earning a WWE Tag Team Championship match against reigning champions Kingston and Truth at the pay-per-view. On the July 16 episode of Raw, Kingston and Truth successfully defended the WWE Tag Team Championship against the Prime Time Players. Therefore, Mysterio received a title match against Miz at SummerSlam.In Money in the Bank, after The Prime Time Players were defeated by Primo & Epico, The Prime Time Players confronted WWE Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston and R-Truth and tried to attack them, to which R-Truth threw a bottle of water at the Prime Time Players' manager Abraham Washington, starting a feud between the two teams. During the August 10 episode of SmackDown, Mysterio defeated The Miz in a non-title match. After his return, Mysterio declared his intention to become Intercontinental Champion.
However, Del Rio demanded one more match, which he got after defeating Kane, Rey Mysterio and Daniel Bryan on the July 27 episode of SmackDown, setting up a match between Del Rio and Sheamus at SummerSlam. When Del Rio returned, they immediately resumed their feud, facing again at Money in the Bank, where Sheamus again defeated Del Rio. During the following weeks, the two continued their feud, which directed to a match at No Way Out, in which Dolph Ziggler replaced Del Rio (due to Del Rio suffering an injury on the June 6 episode of SmackDown), where Sheamus again retained.
Ambrose would make his debut later in the year as part of the stable The Shield. However, Foley was not cleared to compete by his doctors, he announced his final retirement and the match was scrapped. Ambrose had accused Foley for being the cause of a lost generation at WrestleMania Axxess and would to continue to insult him on Twitter. On the August 13th episode of Raw, it was announced that Jersey Shore personality Pauly D would be the social media ambassador for the event.WWE legend Mick Foley was scheduled to face the debuting Dean Ambrose at the event. However, the following week on SmackDown, after Del Rio defeated Chris Jericho, Sheamus asked for the match to be reinstated, which was accepted by Booker T.
