Nevertheless, his experience reigned supreme as he managed to execute a perfectly timed Codebreaker for the win.But, Bray Wyatt overcame Chris Jericho at SummerSlam – despite the fact that his disciplines Luke Harper & Eric Rowan were banned from ringside. When the action moved outside the ring, The Eater of Worlds hit Y2J with an earth-shattering Sister Abigail into the ringsidebarricade, before delivering an encore of the frightening maneuver in the center ofthe ring for the three-count. Nevertheless, the animosity between Jericho and Wyatt continued and both Superstars were ready to settle the scoreinside a steel cage on the season premiere of Raw.

Later that night, Randy Orton attacked aninjured Jericho in the trainers room, setting the stage for their battle at Night of Champions.
