[Wishbone]

OMG Rusev's face rofl XD

[Dark One]

That referee is a fucking communist.

[Wishbone]

... Well, that was... interesting?

[Dark One]

OMG Rusev's face rofl XD

Hey! He didn't look like he was waiting for the bus this time.

[Razzamajazz]

iron sheik needs to manage rusev

[KaosDarksol]

as a real American I was rooting for Swagger, but yay tipsters points!!!

[slik]

YES

[RawRocks]

what a fucking shit finish.. fuck you WWE.

[Heisenberg]

Goddammit

[Dark One]

SOMEBODY CALL CAPTAIN AMERICA.

[Wishbone]

JBL with the sudden face turn

[road doggy dogg]

little kid: "YOU SUCK AT WRESTLING!"

[Emperor Smeat]

So no post-match flag waving either?

[Droford]

Well thee goes using that finish in the Lesnar/Cena match

[Wishbone]

Hey! He didn't look like he was waiting for the bus this time.

Instead he looked like he was on the shitter after taco night

[erickman]

so lana is not going to give us a happy ending

[Volare]

What a hell of a match, damn SS is kicking ass this year!

[Razzamajazz]

the fuck?

[Dark One]

Hogan now?

[Wishbone]

So they're just playing the nation's anthem? Why was this a "flag" match then? Why not an "anthem" match?

[slik]

Rusev's road to becoming food for Cena continues!

[Dark One]

If there was ever a time for Hoke Hogan to come out a leg drop someone in 2014, it would be right now.

[Lock Jaw]

Pretty good match. Though I feel like now was the moment to have Rusev lose.

Although, I guess with Swagger not tapping, and Rusev kicking Zeb, if they continue this feud it has even more "heat".......

I just pray they let Swagger get a win here and be the one to hand Rusev his first loss. It won't be as "big" as happening at Summerslam, but it should definitely still happen.

[Volare]

lol Fans have to put up with it, we get a Mtn Dew commercial :)

[Cool King]

I like that Rusev won, as I love the Russian National Anthem.

[Razzamajazz]

WHY USE THE DALE CALL IF THEY DON'T SHOOT HIM?!

[Droford]

I want Rusev/Lesnar somehow

[Lock Jaw]

Here it is:

[road doggy dogg]

match of the night coming up

[Wishbone]

Feel like they're using Summer Slam to build up Night of Champions honestly. Seems like Night of Champions might be "the Summer PPV" this year just because of the Network needing more subs.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Great match and awesome segment. Really makes me want to see Swagger finally make Rusev tap in a blowoff match, feel like they may save Rusev's first defeat for somebody else though.</font>

[slik]

Here it is:

Took less than a hour

[road doggy dogg]

everyone pos rep LJaw for boners international

[Razzamajazz]

currently sitting on the shitter with my laptop watching this match

[Emperor Smeat]

Rusev's road to becoming food for Cena continues!

Wouldn't be surprised but at least Swagger not tapping out at least should mean one more chance for Swagger to end Rusev's streak

[Lock Jaw]

Took less than a hour

Was probably sooner, but I was busy watching the Swagger/Rusev match.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>As much as I hate that this match is a lumberjack match, if any two guys can make it fun it's these two.</font>

[Droford]

currently sitting on the shitter with my laptop watching this match

shitterslam?

[KIRA]

SOMEBODY CALL CAPTAIN AMERICA.

I don't trust him to succeed call Batman

[Cool King]

Sandow is dressed as an actual lumberjack.

[Dark One]

Hahahaha

Sandow is dressed up as a lumberjack. Incredible.

[road doggy dogg]

damn @ all the guys relegated to being mere lumberjacks

[Wishbone]

Cody looked extremely happy to be there

[Droford]

Sandow dressed up as a lumberjack

[road doggy dogg]

yessssssss love Bill Simmons

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Sandow is the only one dressed up. He's a man! Such a man!

[Wishbone]

I don't trust him to succeed call Batman

Or Superman- I mean Cena.

[Dark One]

Oh hey, Michelle Beadle. Think she called AJ a fuckface during her match?

[Innovator]

SIMMONS

[Wishbone]

Sandow is the only one dressed up. He's a man! Such a man!

Should keep the Lumberjack gimmick and use that theme

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Looks like Bill Simmons doesn't like LeBron or Seth Rollins.

[RawRocks]

Bill Simmons and Michelle Beadle ringside .. surprised ESPN didnt go after the WWE TV rights and put it on ESPNEWS every week.

[Wishbone]

It's so weird that Dean Ambrose has become one of my favorite superstars

[road doggy dogg]

can't wait to hear next BS Report and Bill talk about SS

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

SETH IS AN ARCHITECT!

ART VANDALAY!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Kofi and Big E not standing next to each other, and Xavier Woods not out there at all. That group is officially done.</font>

[Innovator]

Lol what the fuck is Sandow wearing?

[road doggy dogg]

lol love Ambrose

[slik]

technically the lumberjacks should dislike them both

[Wishbone]

<font color=goldenrod>Kofi and Big E not standing next to each other, and Xavier Woods not out there at all. That group is officially done.</font>

To be fair, did they really think a "black power" stable would work in 2014?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Love Ambrose so much.</font>

[slik]

BO

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: just noticed what Sandow is wearing

[Innovator]

Jeans, argyle sweater, winter hat

[road doggy dogg]

lol Slator "whoawhoawhoa bro"

[Emperor Smeat]

That was a nice spot

[Droford]

its been awhil since someone actually got suplexed to the outside

[Innovator]

Is he Dexter?

[slik]

this match is great

damn good show so far

[RawRocks]

WHAT A MATCH!

[DaveWadding]

KORPORATE KANE

[Wishbone]

These lumberjacks aren't doing their jobs very well

[road doggy dogg]

Well the lumberjacks failed miserably with their singular task.

[KIRA]

wow I usually am kinda meh for lumberjack matches but I love this

[slik]

THE CORPORATE KANE means business

[Wishbone]

Gotta give Ambrose and Rollins props for making a lumberjack match intersting

[road doggy dogg]

THE DAEMON CORPORATE KANE

[DaveWadding]

LOL @ Sin Cara getting stomped

Man, that bump by Rollins.

[road doggy dogg]

fuck yeah Goldust show him what's what

[Wishbone]

This is wonderful

[RawRocks]

AMAZING!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

That's a DQ.

[Emperor Smeat]

:D massive brawl occuring

Match has been amazing so far

[road doggy dogg]

match of the night coming up

still stand by this

[Mercenary]

Awful match

[slik]

That was probably the best lumberjack match in history

I can't really think of a good lumberjack match before this

[Droford]

1-4 in tipsters. yay

[Fenix122]

BAH GAWD! IT'S MAYHEM

[Wishbone]

Guess Rollins kinda had to win this to remain relevant, but damn if I didn't get excited when Ambros hit the curb stomp

[Dark One]

I'm super impressed at how well they used the stip. I take back what I said back in the Smackdown spoiler thread about a Lumberjack match being a stupid fucking move.

[Wishbone]

Ambrose deserves Roman Reign's push damnit.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Jesus Christ. I will happily eat crow for thinking it was a terrible idea to have a Lumberjack match.

Just fantastic. They aren't topping that tonight.</font>

[Lock Jaw]

Probably the best Lumberjack match I have seen.

Not sure why Ambrose picked it if he was just going to try to brawl around the arena and circumvent the lumberjakcs.

[road doggy dogg]

Ambrose deserves Roman Reign's push damnit.

yes x 1000

Reigns is nothing special...

[DaveWadding]

JBL is winning the Mt. Dew drinking contest. Cole still stuck in the starting blocks.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Asian ref must not be able to read the rules of a Lumberjack match. Lumberjacks aren't allowed to attack the wrestler in the ring.

[road doggy dogg]

Tazz Dan guest interference?

[slik]

Jericho-Wyatt up next, whoever planned out the match order was on their A game tonight

[Lock Jaw]

Here it is:

http://i.imgur.com/4aRexIF.gif (http://wrestlingwithtext.com/my-brief-and-uninsightful-recap/wwt-live-short-wwe-summerslam-2014)

Just notice Jerry "The King" Lawler looking up at the end of this gif

[Fenix122]

I was not super excited by this PPV earlier today but so far this is completely blowing me away. Great matches so far

[road doggy dogg]

really need to poop but want to watch this match real bad

[Wishbone]

Hmm... not sure Jericho vs Wyatt should be going on after that. Feels like a major letdown honestly.

[Droford]

Time to debut a new Wyatt Family member

[road doggy dogg]

this match features two of my all-time fav entrances. so much yes.

[Wishbone]

What is Bray wearing?

[Wishbone]

Time to debut a new Wyatt Family member

Bo Wyatt?

[Dark One]

I still love the cell phone lights in the crowd. It's a nice call back to all the camera flashes when Austin or Rock would hit the ring and pose on the turnbuckle.

[road doggy dogg]

Dexter Morgan apron, nice touch

[Wishbone]

Oh it's the leather apron

[KIRA]

that butchers smock

[road doggy dogg]

Jericho is the best

[Lock Jaw]

Big surprise is the new jacket

[Wishbone]

Hey! New jacket for Jericho

[Droford]

he's got a new jacket

[KIRA]

Ambrose deserves Roman Reign's push damnit.

He really does Ive been loving solo Ambrose

[Wishbone]

They're really pushing that damn "Slam City" bullshit.

[road doggy dogg]

#ARMBAR sign... they win the sign battle tonight

[Dark One]

#ARMBAR sign... they win the sign battle tonight

The real question is do they have hundreds of them?

[Wishbone]

Don't like Bray's green pants

[Wishbone]

Did Jericho just punch Bray's hat into his face?

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING ADVERTISING SLAM CITY DURING THIS MATCH?

[Poit]

"Go back to Toronto Jericho" sign. :lol:

Oddly enough that's not a bad look for her

[Wishbone]

That bruise on Jericho's leg is pretty damn bad

[Droford]

is my stream bad or is Bray's tongue green?

[KIRA]

Oh com'on Bray is flexible enough for a liontamer right?

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Hell of a bruise on Jericho there.

[Wishbone]

Ouch

[Wishbone]

Been having to refresh the page on the Network repeatedly tonight

[el bobbo]

My feed just went back to the divas match.

[Wishbone]

I don't understand why someone doesn't just kick Bray's teeth down his throat when he does that upside down spider thing

[Lock Jaw]

WHAT IS DEAD MAY NEVER DIE

[Emperor Smeat]

One day someone is just going to kick Bray when he does that spider walk

[Dark One]

Good call by Bray on realizing his foot was too far away from the rope and getting his shoulder up too.

People can hate on him "saying nothing" all they want, but dude's got great instincts.

[Wishbone]

Really wish we could have gotten a Wyatt vs Undertaker feud for WM before the streak was ended :(

[Droford]

Bray should have ended taker's streak. Deadman vs Deadman

[dronepool]

Yes!

[Lock Jaw]

I feel like that is maybe how his match against D-Bry at Royal Rumble ended.... Sister Abigail into barricade, and then in the ring..... probably wrong.

[slik]

Great match

5 for 5 so far on this show

[Droford]

2-4 in Tipsters! things are looking up

[road doggy dogg]

another good good match

PPV has been great from the get-go so far

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Maybe it wasn't a bruise. Might just be the red paint on Bray's arm.

[erickman]

it is a heels night rvd and zigler are the only faces to win sofar

[Wishbone]

Maybe it wasn't a bruise. Might just be the red paint on Bray's arm.

That's paint on Bray's arm? Thought it was a tattoo :wtf:

[RawRocks]

You'd think the two dudes in the Takis commercial were having an orgasm.

[Droford]

if he's the eater of worlds he should have the whole world in his belly, which would explain a few things

[road doggy dogg]

Hope this match isn't as terrible as it could be... don't kill the PPV with this

[Wishbone]

If it had been anyone but a Bella in this feud it would be amazing on every level.

[road doggy dogg]

lol @ the bro doing a bro face when she called her a bitch

[Droford]

I really hope Nikki doesn't turn on Brie, its too obvious even for WWE

[Wishbone]

I mean can you imagine if Punk had stayed and taken Bryan's place? We would have AJ Lee vs Stephany McMahon.

[DaveWadding]

BETCH!

[Droford]

If it had been anyone but a Bella in this feud it would be amazing on every level.

Eva Marie even?

[Lock Jaw]

Pretty hyped for this match :shifty:

[Wishbone]

Eva Marie even?

... Good point. Statement retracted.

[DaveWadding]

That was the worst Yes Lock in recorded history.

[RawRocks]

The McMahon-Bella feud is why the WWE needs to go back to an Attitude-era type set up.

[slik]

Steph looks good

[road doggy dogg]

steph looks hawt

[RawRocks]

Stephanie the Stripper

[Droford]

what's up with the 4 fingers?

[road doggy dogg]

who is Ronda Rousey

[Wishbone]

Every time I read "Brie Mode" a piece of me dies a little inside.

[Emperor Smeat]

Steph attire looks like the Divas version of Rollins gear.

[DaveWadding]

who is Ronda Rousey

UFC fighter. Krispy's next ex wife.

[Wishbone]

Don't know why, but I'm getting a Minnie Mouse vibe from Brie's ring gear tonight

[road doggy dogg]

oh.

[Cool King]

who is Ronda Rousey

MMA woman who is in Expendables 3.

[road doggy dogg]

hahha that was awesome

[Wishbone]

Really hope Brie stops using the YES Lock when she finishes this feud

[Droford]

Nein Nein Nein!

[Jura]

what's up with the 4 fingers?

Ronda Rousey is a wrestling fan and she is in a group of other female MMA fighters that are dubbed the four horsewomen or something like that.

[Lock Jaw]

#StephsLegs

[road doggy dogg]

So, when you put it in context of this being a terrible time filler, it's actually quite impressive. Steph is handling herself.

[Cool King]

Stephanie is looking great tonight.

Reminds me of her Attitude Era days. She looks like she hasn't aged either.

Though I will say that when I first saw her attire, I thought she looked like some kind of sex mistress.

[Vastardikai]

UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion, Former student of Gene LeBell, and Krispy's next ex wife after she divorces Vastardikai.

:shifty:

[Wishbone]

Almost wanna see Steph win here and become a semi-regular competitor in the Diva's division for a bit

[rockman725]

Stephanie is looking great tonight.

Reminds me of her Attitude Era days. She looks like she hasn't aged either.

Though I will say that when I first saw her attire, I thought she looked like some kind of sex mistress.

She can be my sex mistress any time...twice on Sunday! :wave:

[road doggy dogg]

m|m Stone Cold Brie Austin m|m

[Heisenberg]

Steph looks good

steph looks hawt

Oh hell yeah

[Poit]

So, can someone explain what "Brie Mode" is?

[Wishbone]

If Brie hits the running knee I'm done

[KIRA]

I'll be damned this is entertaining

[DaveWadding]

Ugh, Brie Bella is so terrible.

[Wishbone]

So, can someone explain what "Brie Mode" is?

Crappy pun version of "Beast Mode"

[road doggy dogg]

So, can someone explain what "Brie Mode" is?

I'm guessing it's a play on "beast mode" or something?

[Jura]

Triple H angry that another person mounts his wife.

[Wishbone]

Nikki gonna hit an AA on HHH

[DaveWadding]

So, can someone explain what "Brie Mode" is?

According to Total Divas (and I can't believe I know this), it's how crazy she acts when she gets drunk. At least, that's the original meaning.

[Poit]

Sigh.

[road doggy dogg]

Hope THE DEMON KANE comes and fixes HHH's mess

[Droford]

here comes the heel turn

[Cool King]

I KNEW IT!

[Wishbone]

How did this happen? I'm actually kinda enjoying a Bella match

[dronepool]

Oh shit

[road doggy dogg]

shock and/or awe

[RawRocks]

There it is.. Bella split

[Wishbone]

Aaaaannnnd there went the enjoyment...

[slik]

Better match than expected.

[Cool King]

Damn, Stephanie's ass.

[DaveWadding]

Awfullllll

[Lock Jaw]

Referee half dead from being dragged out of the ring

[Droford]

ugh..

[road doggy dogg]

Nikki has large breasts.

[Emperor Smeat]

Had low expectations but that was good overall.

[Wishbone]

Somehow I went from fully hyped for a PPV to "meh" in the span of 5 seconds...

[erickman]

good ole jr called that

[road doggy dogg]

Referee half dead from being dragged out of the ring

tbf HHH yanked him a good 10 feet, impressive draggage

[Droford]

at least I'm 3-4 in tipsters..3 straight..woo

[slik]

Instantly dreading Brie and Nikki cutting dueling promos and wrestling one another

[KIRA]

nephew:is it wrong that I get a boner when SMH does the pedigree?

me:Kinda.....eww dude get away from me!

[Poit]

According to Total Divas (and I can't believe I know this), it's how crazy she acts when she gets drunk. At least, that's the original meaning.

So, her wrestling is drunken rage or something?

[Wishbone]

Instantly dreading Brie and Nikki cutting dueling promos and wrestling one another

Diva's division going back to piss break central

[Seth82]

that match with Brie and Steph was far better than it had any right to be imho.

not surprised at all that Nikki turned heel.

[Lock Jaw]

Been waiting for Nikki Bella heel turn against her sister ever since it was teased on NXT.

[KIRA]

It'd be a better story if (NIKKI)she was a reluctant heel

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The Brie/Nikki promos will be atrocious, but this was the obvious next step to the angle.</font>

[Lock Jaw]

Eva Green hot too

[DaveWadding]

So, her wrestling is drunken rage or something?

No her wrestling puts us in a drunken rage.

[Droford]

The Danielson family has a pedigree by a McMahon streak at summer slam going..2 years

[rockman725]

I should have put that one down in Vegas. could have gotten a few bucks. saw that a mile away months ago

[slik]

did we just have a STD spotting?

[road doggy dogg]

I have a bad feeling Orton / Reigns will be the worst match of the night, it's been A star all night.

You know, there's a pretty good chance of that actually happening.

I hope Reigns proves all my naysaying wrong, though.

[Dark One]

We've got an hour for this Totinos bullshit, Orton/Reigns, and Brock/Cena?

Those are going to feel rushed as shit with entrances included.

[Volare]

I got quiet cause I got into this too much.

[Wishbone]

<font color=goldenrod>The Brie/Nikki promos will be atrocious, but this was the obvious next step to the angle.</font>

Eh, they could have used it as an opportunity to call up someone from NXT as Steph's "enforcer" or something. Just feel like the Nikki heel turn was just too damn obvious, even for pro-wrestling.

[DaveWadding]

3 way tie in Mt. Dew drinking competition now. King is the de facto leader by virtue of having the cap off.
