Current women’s U.S. champion Tiffany Stratton, Jade Cargill, Chelsea Green, Charlotte Flair and Lash Legend will compete to hold that interim title in a ladder match. It’s a stacked field in what could be one of the more interesting matches of the night. When it comes to ladders, the women’s stars have proven they are willing to go above and beyond to get the belt or the Money in the Bank briefcase.
Prediction: Chelsea Green captures the Interim WWE Women’s Championship.

The Intercontinental Championship may be the second-most prestigious singles title the WWE has to offer. Bret Hart vs. Curt Henning has been pointed to as one of the best matches in SummerSlam history and that was for the Intercontinental Championship in 1991. Penta and Chad Gable may reach that moment in Night 2. Penta has been the champion since March but Gable is coming in as the hero who apologized to Luchadores after he lost his mask as the Original El Grande Americano. Gable, in his home state, might put on a show.
Prediction: Chad Gable wins the title for the first time

Whenever Danhausen is in a match, you can expect some kind of silliness and there’s no doubt that will be the case on Sunday. Dominik Mysterio wants the money he paid to “curse” one of his opponents back from Danhausen. As their rivalry heats up, the money Mysterio is in need of will be on a pole for this one. Danhausen has been a fan favorite since joining WWE and will be over with the crowd in Minneapolis.
Prediction: Danhausen with a winhausen.

The No. 1 contender spot for the Undisputed WWE Championship is on the line when Sami Zayn and Finn Balor step into the ring. Zayn held the title for nine days before he lost to a returning CM Punk. Balor has been on a winning streak since he joined SmackDown. The fire in Zayn may be enough to propel him in this one, but Balor has the championship pedigree behind him. It’s really a toss-up on who wins this match.
Prediction: Sami Zayn gets the win here.

Williams is putting the title on the line to vanquish Corbin, but one can’t help to think whether Hayes will be lurking to get some revenge.
Prediction: Trick retains the title.
