WWE removes Tiffany Stratton vs. Blake Monroe bout from SummerSlam card

WWE had originally scheduled a Women’s United States Championship match between rising star Tiffany Stratton and Blake Monroe for SummerSlam in Minnesota. The match was later dropped from the event. One cited factor is the knee injury to Rhea Ripley, which forced WWE to create an interim Women’s Champion match and reshuffle the card. Stratton instead qualified for a fatal‑five‑way ladder match that will crown an interim champion.

A separate commentary piece listed several current WWE champions and argued which titles should change hands or be retained at SummerSlam, highlighting figures such as Penta El Zero M, Austin Theory, and Trick Williams.
