WWE SummerSlam lineup: Updated card for the biggest show of the summer
– The decision to not bring in MVP was WWE’s choice and not MVP turning them down. Last month, I guessed 8/9 correctly, and will try to improve on that this time, will a few controversial choices.
Crews is another star that has arisen in the New Era and Miz, for the most part, is a boring champion considering many times you forget he even has the belt. Fortunately, Dean Ambrose chose to interrupt, as did Dolph Ziggler. This is of no fault of either the Miz, who has been excellent as a heel recently, or Crews who has show his tremendous athletic abilities consistently since his move to the main roster. Now let them add to that instead of just talking about one another on different shows. Less than two years later, Lesnar would leave the WWE before any kind of youngest champion vs. youngest champion match could even become a thought in anyone’s head. Grabbing a mic, AJ Styles cut a promo on how he was sick of Cena, claiming that he’ll be the new face of the WWE after Summerslam. I know this is professional wrestling, but the result of certain matches can not occur outside the realm of reality. I think that ENZO AND CASS need the win more to escalate them to the top of the tag team division and Owens and Jericho are better off apart anyway. After cashing in Money in the Bank at the show of the same name, most assumed he would be beaten for the title by either Seth Rollins or Roman Reigns at WWE Battleground. This is some unstoppable force vs. immovable object action right here, and we’re going to find out which can go harder.
After Summerslam Cena gets to take some time off and when he comes back the loss won’t hurt him. One thing I can say about the Reigns Vs Rusev match is that Raw has promoted their mid-card title match far more than Smackdown. Rusev needed a credible opponent to legitimise his title run and cement him as one of the companies top heels.
The final featured bout is for the WWE World Championship as Dean Ambrose defends the belt against Dolph Ziggler. Styles and Cena will put on a hell of a show and I have loved the way their feud has built up.
The card is absolutely stacked, no less than eleven matches have been announced. Although I feel he will lose clean, Ziggler has gained some crucial momentum in the last few weeks of which he deserves.
WWE Superstars Kevin Owens, Daniel Bryan, Natalya, Carmella, Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso will visit One World Observatory positioned on top of One World Trade Center, the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, to tour the exhibits and learn about the historic building. Ambrose said that if Ziggler somehow does beat him for the title, Ziggler’s life won’t be magically transformed and the critics won’t be silenced.
-New Day vs. Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson for the WWE Tag Team Championship. Now, this is the most vulnerable the team have been and I am actually going to go the shock choice; THE CLUB. Then again, fighting to avenge their partner might be enough to help them retain at the same event they won the titles in 2015.
He soundly defeated John Cena to become world champion once again – on a part-time schedule – and he ended The Undertaker’s famous WrestleMania streak with a famous win at the 30th edition of the event. He seemed invested in the story, and was not going to take no for an answer.
Brock Lesnar and Randy Orton will finally face off in a match that’s “15 years in the making”, as WWE constantly reminds us. Therefore, commonsense tells me that LESNAR will win.
This match isn’t all about the conquering Beast, though, as Orton could absolutely win this thing. His finisher, the RKO, is one of the most popular, if not the most popular finishers in wrestling, and it’s certainly capable of felling even the largest of Jimmy John’s sandwich monsters, no matter how many times said monster hoists you up in a suplex and violently throws you across the ring. Other than that, Lesnar should continue to be dominant and win, and there may be a special appearance from either Bray Wyatt or Goldberg. Eva Marie appeared during the match, and Naomi confronted her, causing a huge distraction in the ring.
