Has summerfest started yet? (SummerSlam Thread) THE BIG DOG!!!

[Droford]

Wwe never fails to overdeliver on nxt takeovers and underperform their main ppvs

[KIRA]

How is it that Jeff Hardy threw his body around like a sock monkey but his brother is the one who has the spine fusing together

[Jordan]

These guys have great chemistry.

[slik]

Maybe owen needs some inspiring messages from THE BIG DOG!

Please, go for it!

[THE BIG DOG]

According to someone at the event, the crowd for Miz-Bryan was a lot more active or louder than it came off on stream.

Seems WWE really is messing with the crowd mics to get it ready in time for the Reigns-Lesnar Boofest.

Nobody will boo THE BIG DOG!!!

[Jordan]

Oh man that was a good spot with the missed nut shot.

[slik]

Shinsuke looks good in black pants

[Jordan]

Nobody will boo THE BIG DOG!!!

Hey, Big Dog welcome to the biggest part of the summer. You should get focused on your match!

[Jordan]

Damn that was a straight stunner that time, brutal.

[Jordan]

THAT'S THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING!

[Dark One]

WTF Jeff, why?

[Emperor Smeat]

Ouch

[Evil Vito]

Jeeeeeeeeeeeesus the Swanton on the apron was a really dangerous spot nobody should be taking ever.

[Droford]

That was brutal to watch

[Jordan]

Good match. Tough spot on the card for it but they did great.

[slik]

Shin with the clean pin!

That was a good match

[RP]

great match that no one in the crowd cared about

[Dark One]

Randy Orton gonna make an unconscious Jeff Hardy shake his hand.

[Savio]

Randy is about to unleash the <s>Viper</s> Trouser Snake

[RP]

crowd is dead

[GD]

lol WTF Randy

[Jordan]

Okay. That was weird. Seems dumb.

[Jordan]

Randy is about to unleash the <s>Viper</s> Trouser Snake

:rofl::rofl:

[rockman725]

That's a great heel move on Randy's part. good call on that

[KIRA]

Jeeeeeeeeeeeesus the Swanton on the apron was a really dangerous spot nobody should be taking ever.

RIGHT that was sick and unnecessary imo

Wonder how WWE will ruin that good feel moment.

[KIRA]

Are people just too afraid of Ronda Rousey to tell her she looks ridiculous

[Ezra]

Let's see just how rehearsed this match is. Ronda looks like a borg or something from Star Trek.

[RaginRonic]

So Ronda Rousey is channeling Pizzazz, from the 1985-1988 Jem & The Holograms animated series, with her eye makeup, I see. XB

Well.....that was way more straightforward than I thought it was going to be.

LOL wow that was great.

[RP]

This isnt a fair match for Alexa. Ronda is used to taking beatings from her boyfriend.

I am so happy and proud of Ronda Rousey. Genuinely emotional right now.

This is going to sound harsh but they pretty much are leeches when it comes to trying to hog spotlights or attention.

They already failed big time before trying to achieve fame on their own.

[OssMan]

Why did Brock Lesnar squeeze Paul Heyman's jowls

[Jordan]

Glad they didn't do some kind of Bella beat down on Ronda. The three of them couldn't handle Ronda if they tried.

This rivalry has "stirred our emotions for three years?"

Brock wins, cash-in happens, Braun takes over as babyface.

Roman wins, cash-in happens, Braun takes over as tweener.

[Evil Vito]

It must be the ultimate statement on WWE's booking that they got Brock Lesnar when he was basically the coolest, most credible, biggest get possible, and the absolute best thing they could get out of it is to ruin him so badly that they've ended up running a storyline based on "God, how can we get rid of Brock Lesnar?"

I was wrong.

The darkest timeline is going to be Roman pinned Braun, meaning he still hasn't beaten Brock, which means Wrestlemania 35 will be headlined by Brock vs Roman 87

WWE were well aware everyone was going to hope for Braun to come out and cash in after that match, so they sent him out early to had him taken out mid-match to nip it in the bud.

Weak ass main event. NXT blew this away with the exception of AJ vs Joe, Rollins vs Zigler, and Miz vs Bryan.

[Splaya]

FUCK THAT SHOT. THEY TEASED ME

[Theo Dious]

That was a brilliant ending. Kept the crowd from shiting on the whole match without making Roman look like a turd.

[Evil Vito]

Better show than I was expecting. Main event was a train wreck but I expected nothing less. The few matches I was looking forward to delivered, so on the whole I can't complain. It was just way too long.

[BigCrippyZ]

This was the first WWE event I've seen "in full" since last years Mania. 2 things were "entertaining":

1. Styles v. Joe,

2. Bryan v. Miz

Everything else was mediocre at best and far from "entertaining". Perhaps the company should reconsider it's purpose and name.

[xrodmuc316]

Not really sure why they had to murder Owens just so Braun was fresh enough to get murdered by Brock.

Otherwise that was a pretty enjoyable PPV.

[BigCrippyZ]

Not really sure why they had to murder Owens just so Braun was fresh enough to get murdered by Brock.

Otherwise that was a pretty enjoyable PPV.

1. To get him on the show, 2. because they had no plan before hand, they simply booked the match with no plan, and 3. this company's "creative" direction is a joke and straight up trash.

[OssMan]

[DrA]

That was the right way to do it. Reigns needed to get his win against Lesnar, so you couldn't put Braun in the match, so just put him out at ringside to get beaten up and stuff.

[Emperor Smeat]

Event itself was decent overall. Some really questionable decisions and not worth the earlier start time but it did have some good to great matches.

But why did he need to destroy Owens? It makes sense if they want to have him cash in and truly put him over.

That's not what happened though, he did nothing but get knocked down by Roman then get destroyed by Brock.

Let K.O. give Braun a fight. Braun could still beat Owens but be beat up a bit himself. Then it at least makes sense that he isn't able to cash in after getting attacked, instead of looking like a turd compared to Brock again.

[Ezra]

I am bummed about Miz and Bryan. This should have been built and done at Mania. I guess they are just worried about Bryan not resigning.

[Ezra]

And thinking about it, I know they are blowing the fued with Owens and Strowman off but it would have been nice if Strowman had recovered, went to cash in the case and Owens came out of nowhere, grabbed it and took off not allowing Braun to cash in. Owens can't be Braun but he can sure screw him out of what he wants.

[DrA]

I didn't see that match so I can't comment on it. Maybe those details could have been handled better, but there was no other way they could have done that ending, Reigns had to win that match against Lesnar and not have it shit on with Braun cashing it in on him.

[OssMan]

lol, mad funny episode...

[Vastardikai]

Let me guess, the whole point of Strowman was to keep the fans from walking out and missing the coronation...

[OssMan]

Overall not a disappointing show because my expectations were that it would be bad, and it's slightly surpassed my expectations. I was entertained for most of the show but it was no where near greatness.

Agree, last two episodes were kinda weak but this one came back super strong.. loved Dr. Nira Cain-N'Degeocello coming back giving birth, and this was by far the strongest Ex Con Second Chance

[Emperor Smeat]

Let me guess, the whole point of Strowman was to keep the fans from walking out and missing the coronation...

Funniest thing is they his coronation be really short because they quickly realized the crowd was going to turn hard against Reigns once the cash-in wasn't happening.

They waited almost 4 years to finally get Reigns' big moment done and ended up half-assing it like everything they've done with his booking.

Wow! Just realized Roman Reigns is a 4-time world champion with 3 reigns as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion and current (maiden) reign as Universal Champion.

[Big Vic]

Such a great payoff to this storyline that started in 2014.

[slik]

The best is how it was booked so Brock lost the title because Brock was distracted by Braun, not because Roman was "the better man".

[Danny Electric]

Enjoyed the show more than I thought I would probably because I watched it over two separate times. The problem is that with the pre show includes it’s a 6 hour show, most people don’t have the attention span for that. I know they need to get as many of the wrestlers as possible on to the show and continue or end the feuds that have been building up but it would be much better if they cut down the amount of matches and put more focus then on to what is there .

Also for their own sake they may need to put the Takeover events the night after the PPV or on a separate weekend cos they keep getting upstaged.

Overall there was some great matches over the weekend with some unnecessary segments ie the Braun/Owens match.

False Danny. They need to put the Takeover events on a separate weekend because they keep upstaging the actual PPV they are before

[Jordan]

I wonder what the numbers are on how many fans watched Takeover vs Summerslam.

[Loose Cannon]

I wouldn't think it'd be close, but do they even make those numbers public? and you're just talking about people who watched over Network right?

[Danny Electric]

That was an idea I said , maybe just worded wrong 🙂

[Splaya]

Ok. Sorry buddy

[Loose Cannon]

i didn't even realize Roman won the belt before. feels like he's been trying to win for 10 years and not in a Mick Foley sort of way.

[Danny Electric]

No need to apologise , most likely my bad use of English.

[Innovator]

-Won a tournament then got cashed in on.

-Beat Sheamy on RAW.

-Had his huge coronation moment by beating HHH at Mania 32 for the title.

[Danny Electric]

So how is Braun going to use his briefcase to win the belt. I don’t see him failing to cash in the year after Corbin failed cos it would taint the MITB match.
Either that or he does an angle where he throws the briefcase in the rubbish cos he’s a monster and he doesn’t need it , then it gets picked up by a mystery person. Then they can play an angle when different wrestlers will walk out to the ring during Romans matches to keep us guessing who it is.

[Evil Vito]

His first reign was all of 5 minutes before he lost it to a Sheamus MITB cash-in.

His second reign was like a month and he lost it to Triple H when they put the title on the line in the 2016 Rumble match.

And this third reign was only like 2 or 3 months, he lost the belt and then immediately got a Wellness suspension.

So they've all been completely uneventful.

[slik]

I think Braun will cash in tonight possibly

ALSO remember Brock has been booked for the "RAW after SummerSlam" for a while. Tonight is Brock's real 'swan song' until he decides to one day return again.

thank god. he and Heyman have been so stale.

Reigns has had some shitty runs for sure. hopefully the writers figure it out and this reign lasts more then a few months. If not and Braun cashes tonight, then i think they've thrown in the towel with him as a long reigning champion for now

[Shisen Kopf]

I hope John Cena comes back to challenge Roman for the belt. That would rule.
