The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Summer & Lola’s Rivalry Explodes – Become Bitter Enemies Over Kyle & Theo?

The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers reveal that the show could use another fierce female rivalry. Y&R fans have watched Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) battle it out, but that seems to have run its course. Phyllis and Abby need to focus on their own projects and put their feud behind them.

However, Y&R bypassed a great rivalry that would’ve made a ton of sense. Why on earth was Lola Rosales (Sasha Calle) so understanding about Summer Newman (Hunter King) and Kyle Abbott’s (Michael Mealor) quick reunion?

Kyle at least waited until after the split to sleep with Summer – but just barely! Summer came up to Kyle’s hotel room that very night and got busy with him.

Nevertheless, Lola’s been civil about all this and has even had some friendly moments with Summer. The Young and the Restless viewers will recall how Lola and Summer bonded over bartending and a movie they both liked. This is pretty much the least soapy route possible.

Why are The Young and the Restless writers trying to turn Summer and Lola into gal pals? We’re all for friendships on soaps, but Lola has plenty of friends and Summer should find other ones. You normally can’t apply real-life logic to the soap world, but this is one time when it seems fitting.

If your spouse left you for an ex and they landed in bed together that night, would you be friends with either one of them? Most people would say no! It feels like Y&R wants to portray Lola as someone kind and understanding, but should that mean Lola never has any enemies? Why shouldn’t Lola have some layers and rivals like everyone else?

As for Summer, The Young and the Restless also portrays her as a softer character these days. Just look at what’s happened to Summer’s feud with Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes).

They’ve softened Summer to the point that Mariah just seems mean for no reason. It’s like Mariah’s being thrown under the bus so Summer can look like the nice one who rises above it.

Of course, Mariah and Summer’s battle is on hold now due to Sharon Newman’s (Sharon Case) cancer. This is the perfect time to get another war going. Could Y&R finally let Summer and Lola’s rivalry explode?

It’d be simple to do since Summer’s back with Kyle AND she’s still wary of Theo Vanderway (Tyler Johnson). It’s easy to imagine Lola getting fed up if Summer keeps giving Theo a hard time.

Lola held her tongue when it came to Kyle and Summer’s reunion, but there could be big trouble if Summer starts something over Theo. That’s the new man in Lola’s life, so she may think enough is enough. Everyone has their limits, even Lola!

Theo would thoroughly enjoy watching Lola defend him in showdowns with Summer. Many Y&R fans would probably enjoy watching that, too. Entertaining rivalries are a huge part of soaps, so Summer and Lola should really become bitter enemies. It’d be entirely appropriate under the circumstances, so let’s hope the show makes it happen.

We’ll deliver updates as other Y&R news rolls in. The Young and the Restless spoilers say the return of new episodes will bring some surprises, so stick with the CBS soap. Don’t forget to make CDL your go-to source for sizzling Young and the Restless spoilers, news and updates.
