We've noted that Brock Lesnar vs. Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Heavyweight Title was not penciled in for SummerSlam but there was one idea going where Lesnar would win the title at SummerSlam, only to see Money In the Bank winner Cesaro cash in and take the title from Lesnar.
Obviously everything is up in the air with Bryan's status for Money In the Bank on June 29th but The Wrestling Observer reports that word this week is that Bryan vs. Lesnar is indeed one of the long-term plans right now for a SummerSlam main event.
The Lesnar vs. Cesaro feud, which would be part of Cesaro's babyface turn, would take place after the Bryan match at SummerSlam.

Regarding Sting's status with WWE, The Wrestling Observer noted that word came out this week that the deal that WWE offered him ultimately ended up being similar to the standard $10,000 Legends contract without any other guarantees.
Talks between the two sides were going very smoothly and it's said that they are still in negotiations.
According to expert Michael Louviere Jr: $10,000 is just a base salary for making appearances and possibly wrestling one or two matches. Plus he'll be inducted into the HoF. The negotiations would be for the percentage of royalties he'll be receiving for DVD sales(especially the DVD that will be just about him), merchandise sales, and WWE Ambassador appearance fees. He actually stands to make quite a lot of money. The base salary is really nothing to him because he's still pretty rich considering he hasn't lived a very flashy lifestyle in a long time. Money is an issue, but not a major one. The issues he's stated time and time again about signing with the WWE, is not trusting Vince. A creative control issue if you will. Well, now that Triple H is the one negotiating with Sting and is the one basically running the show now,things would turn for the better very soon because of these two reasons:
1.) Triple H has done wonders in bringing back Legends who were pretty much done with wanting anything to do with the WWE and Vince McMahon. Case in point, Bruno Sammartino. He was a legend that wanted absolutely nothing to do with the WWE because of how Vince ran the company after his father passed away. Triple H, against incredible odds, brought him back into the fold. Sting is just as hard a sale as Sammartino.
2.) Triple H respects the legacy of professional wrestling. He is, and always will be a traditionalist when it comes to the business of pro wrestling. He won't short change a wrestling legend like Sting. He knows what the company stands to gain by having one of the greatest wrestlers ever, to sign with the WWE. Sting is probably the second greatest pure babyface behind Hulk Hogan.
