According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio, Smackdown was rewritten hours before the show aired. This is why things that were being advertised all week such as Daniel Bryan’s career-changing announcement didn’t happen.

During the show, Shawn Michaels and the Miz were confronted by Dolph Ziggler. Dave Meltzer reports that there are no current plans for Shawn Michaels to wrestle at SummerSlam and a match between Ziggler and the Miz isn’t currently in the works. This segment was a result of all the rewrites that took place hours before the show.

“This show is a completely different show than the one that was written. Because Vince McMahon had shown up at 4 o’clock and decided he didn’t like the show and they redid the show. Vince redid the show at 4 o’clock. So everything changed. That’s why everything that was advertised – The [Daniel Bryan] Speech, Shawn Michaels announcing and all that stuff that they talked about all week – didn’t happen because Vince changed his mind.” – Meltzer, Dave 07/25/2019

As noted, this was the first week where Eric Bischoff sat in the production meeting.
