Pretty much the only criticism I have for the show was that for the second PPV in a row we didn't see either the US or IC Champions.

I'm not the biggest Cena fan, but he did work hard and wrestled well. I can't stand his fucking drop kick though. I laughed when he did it last night.

So far, I've been enjoying every show these last couple of months, which has been awhile. Now with Punk being screwed out of the WWE Title as well as Cena, I just wonder what the storyline will be when they insert KOW, if/when they sign.

This show was AWESOME. Very enjoyable and had a great time watching it.
6-man tag was an ideal opener. Consisted of 6 guys that all have history and they got this crowd going. Sheamus/Henry was a really good big man match. They had to be careful how they booked this one, and it was perfect. The crowd loves Sheamus, and I think they would have went insane if he made it back in the ring and hit the Brogue Kick. Great way to put Henry over without making Sheamus look bad. Kelly/Beth had a really solid divas' match. Best one in a looooong time. I'm sure Kelly has definitely improved, but Beth is just great. It's obvious that a NOC rematch is in the works, and that's good news. Bryan/Barrett was great, and I was glad they gave it time. I previously stated that I didn't wanna see Bryan/Barrett on the card, but I'll eat those words now. Great job by both guys. This was the first time in a long time that Bryan was able to open up the moveset, especially against a bigger opponent. I loved the Wasteland/Guillotine/LeBelle Lock exchange towards the end. The flipping lariat was sick too. :y: Orton/Christian. Wow. Fucking great match here. They built up to the big spots in this match perfectly. Each weapon usage made sense and just kept getting more vicious as the match was going on. Orton/Christian have wrestled one-on-one at 4 straight PPVs, and they managed to keep each one of their matches fresh, exciting, and create a new story each month. I loved how the story telling came full circle from their first Smackdown match in May when both were babyfaces. Orton hit Christian with the RKO as he was countering Christian's sunset flip attempt in a standard one on one match. Now 4 months later, after Christian has turned into a total asshole and pushed Orton, their feud ends with the same exact counter but on steel steps to put an exclamation point on it. Really awesome :y: Cena/Punk was another homerun. A perfect "part 2" to their MITB match. This is what a main event should be. Insane crowds, great build up. It was just perfect. This match reminded me of the big main event feel that Undertaker/Austin had 13 years ago in MSG. The "foot on the rope" thing seems very tired to me, and I did feel that this match should have been given a proper finish, but it wasn't given a proper finish for a reason. They are setting up for more, and I'm all for it. I think it'll be revealed that Triple H saw the foot on the rope and just ignored it anyway because he wanted Nash to be the one to screw Punk out of the Championship because of what he's said/done over the past month. Lots of questions to be answered after some awesome wrestling. :y: One of the best Summerslams ever IMO |
Danielson seemed to step it up last night or some cogs seemed to fall and click into place with him. During the match it seemed like he was the champ and you were inside HIS ring. So I was shocked to see Wade win.

The match of the night for me was Cena and Punk. The atmosphere was ridiculous and I was literally on the edge of my seat the entire match. There wasn't one person who wasn't invested in it.
|
lol @ "this is the worst SummerSlam ever"
|
Yeah I'm wondering how it was "one of the worst of all time," a big name returned, there's actual plot going on?
|
I didn't jump out of my chair like some people might have but this really was a very good show. I think their moves make sense, I don't think Cena and Punk can keep having matches either without having some of the meaning taken out of things. This is big for both guys. Although I really think Cena is drowning as far as the crowd goes.
|
Really thought HHH was gonna pedigree Punk when he raised his hand, so when he didnt i turned off the tv
Fucking idiot |

No re-match for the C-man? |
Anyone else praying for Nash vs Punk on the mic tonight?

Not a religious man, myself.

Christian obviously gets a rematch but I really doubt they could go another PPV match after this. Maybe have him get his rematch on SD! with the stip that if he loses, he can't get another shot as long as Orton is champ. He loses straight up or via some Mark Henry interference. Maybe Sheamus runs in too leading to a fatal fourway.
If they go one on one on PPV again, I feel like something like HIAC wouldn't make too much sense. Christian can't beat Orton. They're really stressing that. And in a brawl setting like last night, Orton was somewhat dominant. If they wanna make it seem like Christian has a chance, it would need to be a TLC match. Roll with the "it's my specialty" thing. Even then, I think they should put it on SD though. |
