Update time:

Stuff leading to SummerSlam
Edge challenges Randy Orton to a feud-ending match after the Viper mocks him for his loss against HHH at King of the Ring. Orton gets to pick the stipulation otherwise it's no dice. He settles on an I Quit Match. Both men vow to walk out the better man at SummerSlam.

Evan Bourne's additional testimony against the reign of Steve Austin as GM gives Ted DiBiase enough backing to present his case to the Board of Directors. Austin challenges him to be a man about things. DiBiase, insulted, challenges Austin to a match at SummerSlam. Austin denies the request and walks away. However, over on SmackDown!, the continued unrest of the SmackDown! locker room over the Rock's lack of control over the Kofi Kingston situation along with the Rock forcing Cody Rhodes into another confrontation with Shawn Michaels (where Michaels is hospitalized), inspires Rhodes and DiBiase to trick both Austin AND the Rock in the ring on Raw where the two Legacy teammates decimate the two general managers and challenge them both two a tag match at SummerSlam. The Board of Directors makes the match official naming it the Three Wishes Match. If Rhodes and DiBiase win, they are each allowed to make three demands from their respective GMs that cannot be refused under penalty of termination. If Austin and Rock win, they are allowed three decisions each that cannot be rebuked by the Board or challenged by Rhodes and DiBiase.

Mr. Kennedy wants to form an alliance with Shelton Benjamin believing the two share a bond as two great former champions who constantly get shafted. Benjamin rebukes him under the belief that he got to the top without someone attached to his hip. The two agree to settle things at SummerSlam.

John Morrison wants The Miz in the worst way even after practically destroying the Awesome One at King of the Ring. Miz agrees to a rematch but only under the condition that Morrison is fired if he goes off the deep end again and gets DQ'ed.

Chris Sylvain's victory at King of the Ring allows him to challenge HHH for the WWE Title at SummerSlam. He claims he only confessed to being behind Kofi's mishaps because he was asked to by the real anonymous mastermind. The two made a deal; Sylvain would confess in order to get the security removed from ringside and the mystery man would ensure Sylvain's victory at King of the Ring. Sylvain admits that he doesn't really know who this person is but quite frankly he doesn't care as he now has what he wants. He and HHH go back and forth over the coming weeks about being the top star on Raw. Sylvain even goes as far as to claim that it won't be a match at SummerSlam; it'll be the most brutal passing of the torch ceremony in history.

SmackDown!:
Kane turns heel on newly crowned champion Jason Collins with the justification that Collins betrayed him by taking the World Title at King of the Ring. Kane could've cashed in Collins anytime but he didn't and now he paid the price for actually showing mercy. The two vow to destroy each other at SummerSlam.

Ian Moore defends his WWE Intercontinental Title in a feud-ending cage match against Cash Stevens on the SmackDown! after King of the Ring. He retains, however, immediately after the match, a returning Shad (who has last seen being wheeled off to the hospital at Judgment Day) assaults Ian Moore and then frantically hands a piece of paper to the referee. The referee talks with the announcer and the timekeeper. It is then announced that there will now be an Intercontinental Title match between Moore and Shad right now. Everyone is puzzled. Shad takes advantage of Moore's beaten state to pick up the win and the title. The next week Shad explains that he's had the right to challenge for the Intercontinental Title ever since he won a four way back in December but Kofi Kingston had knocked him out the night he was supposed to have his match. He got caught up in the business of Kofi but always kept his title shot in his back pocket for a rainy day. Moore immediately demands his rematch and receives it. However, Kofi Kingston storms in from the back and assaults Ian Moore during the match and causes a DQ. Kingston pulls out a hood and claims he found it in Moore's locker room. The next week, Moore claims he's had enough of Kofi. He questions Kofi's belief that Moore is responsible for all of his misery. If it had been Moore and he had hired Shad to act on his behalf, why would Shad return and rob him of the Intercontinental Title? Moore says it doesn't matter because he's taking matters into his own hands. He wants Kofi Kingston at SummerSlam. If Kofi's mission to beat the truth out of everyone on SmackDown!, it's Moore's mission to beat some sense into Kofi. Kofi comes out and tries to apologize but Moore shoves it back in his face claiming his paranoia has gotten the better of him and his narrow-mindedness is going to cost him. Moore doesn't care anymore if Kofi believes him or not. At SummerSlam, it's about setting things straight.

Jack Swagger is challenged by Batista to a match. Swagger accepts under the belief that his all-around wrestling style is more than a match for Batista's power game. Swagger will be the apex predator on SmackDown! after SummerSlam.
