Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great week so far as we get set to this weekend in sports. Here we go!
WWE
This week's WWE Raw was the final Raw before SummerSlam 2011. The main focus of this week was the contract signing between the two disputed WWE Champions CM Punk and John Cena. Also the two WWE Champions were in respective singles matches with John Cena defeating Jack Swagger and CM Punk defeating Mr. Raw Money in the Bank Alberto Del Rio. Therefore, the two looked very strong going into Sunday. Also, World Heavyweight Champion Christian made an appearance via satellite to promote SmackDown since he has an "announcement to make". Tune in this Friday to find out what is the announcement.
Here is the video of the contract signing:
Also, here is the WWE SummerSlam 2011 match card:

MLB
After a devastating weekend in Boston, the Yankees returned home and turned things around on Wednesday as they have defeated the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 2 out of 3. For the Mets, they have ended their bad weekend by defeating San Diego on Monday and Tuesday. However, they have fell short the last 2 days, which makes the series 2-2.
This weekend, the Yankees will host the Tampa Bay Rays in a 3-game stand before heading to the road to Kansas City for Monday. The Mets will be in the West Coast for the next few days as they face the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 1st half of the West Coast Tour this weekend.
NFL
It's official. NFL is back in business as yesterday marked the first day of Preseason games. Speaking of which, this Saturday the New York Giants will head to Bank of America Stadium to face the Carolina Panthers and on Monday the New York Jets will head to Reliant Stadium to face the Houston Texans. The Giants-Panthers game will be televised locally in the New York DMA on WNBC while the Jets-Texans game will be telecasted nationally on ESPN (also simulcasted on WWOR).
That is all I have to say for now. Have a great weekend!
