Vengeance Fallout
RAW: The Undertaker made his return to the WWE to confront Chris Jericho and call him a punk that doesn't respect his elders and needs an ass beating. Jericho responded by calling The Undertaker an old washed up piece of crap that needs to be out of the WWE. This leads to Ric Flair booking The Undertaker vs. Chris Jericho at Summerslam.
Lita assaulted Trish Stratus with a chair the night after Vengeance and beat her up each week thereafter, becoming more and more brutal each week. Ric Flair booked the two in a hardcore match at Summerslam as Lita's last shot at the championship.
Billy Kidman claims that Rey Mysterio got lucky at Summerslam and that he could easily win at Summerslam and challenges Mysterio to a match which he quickly accepts due to being a fighting champion.
Edge has a celebration ceremony after Vengeance which was attended by many people including The Big Show who planted Edge with a Chokeslam and held the Intercontinental title high in the air signifying that he is coming for it and nobody can stop him.
Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle continue their feud by cutting promos on each other each week due to not being able to touch one another until Summerslam. Angle came close to snapping the week before Summerslam but was able to show restraint.
SMACKDOWN: D-Von Dudley and Al Snow demanded another shot at the World Tag Team titles and The Hardys said that they would gladly defend them again because they are the greatest tag team in the world.
Kane retired the Hardcore Championship on the July 25th edition of Smackdown and was promptly attacked and laid out by Raven. Raven would cut numerous promos on Kane in the following weeks before challenging him to an Inferno match. Kane gladly accepted by saying that he can't wait to burn Raven alive.
Vince McMahon announced that the new match is called the Elimination Chamber and would feature 6 Smackdown superstars facing off for vacant WWE Championship. Triple H would defeat Diamond Dallas Page to qualify. Maven would defeat Big Bossman to qualify. Bradshaw would defeat William Regal to qualify. Booker T would defeat Albert to qualify. Chris Benoit would defeat Justin Credible to qualify and The Rock would defeat Rikishi to qualify.

RAW: Lita once again claimed that she was the great women's wrestler in history and said that she would become the longest reigning Women's Champion surpassing the Fabulous Moolah!

Chris Jericho returned from his loss to The Undertaker at SummerSlam to assault The Big Show and stake his claim for the Intercontinental Championship but Mr. Perfect would also claim that he deserves a shot and a triple threat match was booked for No Mercy.

During a tag team match, Matt Hardy assaulted Jeff Hardy from behind and beat him down. He claimed that Jeff was holding him back from achieving what he was meant to do, win the WWE Championship. He said that he will face Jeff one on one and he will show no mercy!
Bradshaw told everyone that there was nobody left for him to beat and that everyone in the Smackdown locker room are a bunch of schmucks. This led to Kane making his return and assaulting Bradshaw and planting him with a Chokeslam before telling him that his reign as champion would soon be coming to an end.
