WWE 'SmackDown' Watch FREE Live Stream Online: 'SummerSlam' Looms As Dean Ambrose, Brock Lesnar Ready For Battle, Live Coverage From California

With SummerSlam looming, the WWE presents "SmackDown Live" this week from the Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield, Calif.

The Blue Brand is continuing the buildup toward SummerSlam, which is set to emanate live on Aug. 21 from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

The main storyline heading into this event is between Dolph Ziggler and WWE Champion Dean Ambrose. "The Lunatic Fringe" will defend his gold against "The Showoff" at "The Biggest Event of the Summer."

Bray Wyatt and Erick Rowan have entered themselves into the feud and it's likely all four Superstars will collide this week in a tag team match.

Another prominent figure on "SmackDown Live" is Randy Orton, who is gearing up for his inter-promotional match with "RAW's" Brock Lesnar on Aug. 21. "The Viper" invaded "RAW" last week and was attacked by Lesnar on "SmackDown" last week, leading to Mick Foley having Daniel Bryan on the flagship show this past week.

While Lesnar isn't expected to be a part of "SmackDown Live" this week, it's likely Orton will pick up some momentum with just 12 nights until their big clash.

Another high-profile bout that will be biult up this week is between John Cena and AJ Styles as they are set to go head-to-head in their second one-on-one match at SummerSlam.

The "SmackDown Live" midcard is also shaping up as The Miz prepares to defend the Intercontinental Championship against Apollo Crews at the second-biggest event of the year. Daniel Bryan also revealed that the tag division and women's division should be getting new titles soon, and progress could be made toward that movement this week.

"SmackDown Live" may also get a new Superstar as free agent Heath Slater will battle Rhyno this week and if the former 3MB member wins, he'll be offered a roster spot.
