This newly updated match was setup following an in-ring promo segment involving Lynch and Valkyria.

Lynch then called for Valkyria to come out to the ring, which Valkyria did. Lynch then issued a new stipulation of if she wins, then Valkyria can never challenge for the title again while she is still champion. Valkyria responded accepting but only on the condition that their match be held under No Countouts and No DQs rules and there must be a winner. Lynch responded reluctantly agreeing to the terms to make it official.

AJ Styles vs. Dominik Mysterio for WWE Intercontinental Title at WWE SummerSlam 2025
Monday’s WWE RAW show also featured one new match announced for the card of SummerSlam 2025, which takes place on August 2-3 at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
This new match announced was a WWE Intercontinental Championship match of AJ Styles vs. Dominik Mysterio (c).
This new match was initially setup over recent weeks shows over Styles’ bad blood issues with Mysterio and Styles doing everything to ensure Mysterio would get medically cleared for his promised title match. During tonight’s show, Mysterio tried to weasle his way out of being medically evaluated to determine if he could be medically cleared.
In a follow-up, Styles pretended to be a medic and attempted to give CPR to Mysterio at ringside after Mysterio got laid out by Raquel Rodriguez by accident during the Women’s Tag Team Championship match. This led to Mysterio panicking over Styles being near him and scrambling away to the back.

In another follow-up segment, an irate RAW GM Adam Pearce demanded that Mysterio get his medical check up or be forced to vacate his title, which Mysterio reluctantly went to get his medical test.
In another follow-up segment, Styles and Pearce were seen waiting outside the doctor’s room waiting for the results. This led to a a medical staff member coming out stating that they need more time for the results which resulted in Styles and Pearce being angry over why it was taking so long. This led to Mysterio showing up and attacked Styles laying him out. Mysterio stated that he was cleared and will see Styles at SummerSlam.
DOMINIK MYSTERIO JUST LAID OUT A WWE MEDICAL STAFF MEMBER!
