Top 5 most memorable SummerSlam moments of all time
Another advantage to bringing back the second world title is the excitement of having the champions confront each other during a pay per view like WrestleMania like HHH and JBL did back at WrestleMania 21.
Many people were anxious about the women’s division on both brands, following the brand split.
The reigning WWE Champion has a huge match ahead of him this Sunday as he defends his gold against Dolph Ziggler at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. I feel that they have one more match in them, even after Summerslam, though. It doesn’t really do anything else, however.
American Alpha, The Hype Bros., and The Usos d. Arguably one of the most dominant performances ever seen in a WWE ring.
In any event, as of press time, WWE is advertising 11 matches for SummerSlam, none of which have been announced as either kickoff show matches or the main event match that closes the night. “I’ve yet to take everyone’s finisher in the WWE, but I’m sure there will be some that I’m not very excited about as I am others”.
Ugh, the more things change the more they stay the same.
WWE announced on Wednesday that Alberto Del Rio and Paige have been suspended for 30 days after violating the company’s Wellness Policy. Natalya knocks Naomi to the floor and then rolls up Becky. Of course. They were saving Eva Marie’s debut for Summerslam.
Missing titles aside, SmackDown has the look and feel of a show that matters just as much as the program that comes on the night before. Cesaro’s success would lead him to an impromptu United States Championship match against Rusev, and Sheamus interfered with a Brogue Kick to prevent Cesaro from picking up the gold. These two are such incredible performers the question isn’t how great will this match be, its how will they make their return matches even better.
But which other bouts would we love to see take place inside the squared circle?
There is only so many times you can do Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks before it starts to become stale and lackluster.
Possible, but I can’t see Ziggler closing out the show.
Apollo Crews won a triple threat match against Baron Corbin and Kalisto to earn an Intercontinental Championship match, and The Miz couldn’t care less. The Miz keeps the belt and moved on to a more worthy challenger.
The Miz also gets nervous.
The championship matches will be enticing, despite the fact that all titles will remain on their respective shows.
Prediction – AJ Styles can’t go down the path of the names above. Each wrestler has one win a piece as AJ Styles got the win at Money in the Bank and John Cena got the win at Battleground. However, if Cena wins this match I’ll have a hard time justifying it.
Rusev retain with help from wife Lana to set up a rematch and some sympathy for Reigns – finally facing an opponent the crowd is booing instead of him.
This will be the match of the night, but not the match of the weekend. The post-match angle surprised me because I thought Cena would end up being the one left down. He also hit 2 more F5’s on his was to becoming the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. If Ziggler defeats Ambrose, he will definitely prove it. Ziggler said Ambrose is going to have to admit that he was the factor that pushed Ziggler over the edge to win the title from him.
We have a long match on RAW, that was quite good – pay-per-view worthy, even. I think for me, it’s a three way tie between Rollins Vs Balor, Sasha Banks Vs Charlotte and Nakamura Vs Samoa Joe.
Houser: It wasn’t that long ago that you came up; what is it like that you built the brand for yourself as Seth Rollins and you’re about to take on a younger talent in his first big match? Some would say that if you didn’t watch NXT, just saying “The Demon King” wouldn’t really explain how cool his getup at SummerSlam would be.
