Summer scandal on “Miz TV”
There has been more than enough drama when it comes to the heated rivalry between Dolph Ziggler, Rusev and their respective partners, Lana and Summer Rae. This ongoing conflict reached Jerry Springer–esque levels on Raw, however, when Summer accused The Showoff of trying to seduce her after getting out of the shower in his locker room.

Saving tables on SmackDown
The New Day are not only the WWE Tag Team Champions, but also table activists. The outspoken trio is using their position as WWE’s top tag team to support a rather interesting cause: saving the tables. And their main nemeses in the fight to protect furniture around the world are none other than The Dudley Boyz.

Xavier Woods, Big E & Kofi Kingston will kick off Thursday’s hottest show and should have plenty to say about their recent foray into philanthropy, as well as their rivalry with Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley. What do the positive Superstars have planned? Will the Dudleys look to break a few more tables on SmackDown? Find out tonight at 8/7 C on Syfy.
Counting down to Divas history

With a No. 1 contender in place for the coveted butterfly-emblazoned title, what effect will this have on the Divas Revolution? And will the self-proclaimed “genetically superior” Diva, or anyone else, be able to prevent “The Fearless” Nikki from becoming the longest-reigning Divas Champion in WWE history on Sept. 14?

Can Neville put a stop to Stardust’s villainous rampage?
At SummerSlam, Neville and “Arrow” star Stephen Amell gave Stardust what he asked for and showed him a couple heroes when they defeated the strange Superstar and his tag team partner King Barrett. The villainous Stardust remained undeterred, however, instead taking out his royal cohort the next night on Raw.
