The Summer of Jinder is almost over

aw yis. our champion

OH BOY! A SONG AND DANCE ROUTINE!

I`m watching

This is the only acceptable reason the pyro was taken away for such a grand show jinder just gave us.

Lol this was probably his SS entrance but do to time constraints they got cut

Please rise

Everybody hinders jinder

damn statue nazis need to show some respect

Feel bad for these performers. I can only imagine the pep talk they got backstage.

Production lackey - "Look, we appreciate what you do. But know that when you go out there, you're gonna get booed to death. Just keep smiling!"

hope they don't ever let Nakamura talk again.........

Creative probably gives Jinder the same script each week and the past week's date crossed out for the current date.

I feel like there's no way this is a good match but it'll probably be early and not remembered anyway

This showdown makes me sad. I love both hibachi grills and Indian food.

Obviously.

How many times have there been a wwe title match between two people not from US/Canada(fully aware Jinder is from Canada but not storyline)

Nothing like getting the ugly Americans to boo another country's nationality and national anthem.

BOO THE BROWN PEOPLE. BOO THEM ALL!!!

I'm more interested in Natalya/Naomi than Sasha/Alexa

Did Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio ever fight for the WWE Title? I know they fought 70 times for the Heavyweight title.

Glow girl gotta lose this Sunday.

Don't want her to, but that belt is hideous. Should have never touched it.

I got into 1999 and gave up :|

Natalyas belt will be covered in cat hair

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! ELLSWORTHLESS IS BACK!

DAMN IT!

I bet they don't do a women's MITB next year

Carmella and Ellsworth rule...

They are really telegraphing Carmella isn't going to cash-in or have her first attempt fail with Carmella constantly stating she's leaving SummerSlam as champ.

Probably do one with RAW next year and maybe afterwards its as a mix brand match on one of the Big 4 events or MitB ppv.

I wonder if Tamina and Nia could switch and no one notice?

:wave:

I would.

So what did I miss?

the thread showing jinder the respect he deserves. about it.

Not much. Mainly Jinder giving the same weekly promo but with Nakamura interrupting him and Natty beating Becky with Carmella giving the same weekly promo afterwards.

Also the Usos want to fight New Day later tonight.

I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!

Idea!

Braun & Rusev become a tag team.

Nobody can stop them.

I hope the human flotsam in that arena had integrity to recognize The MAHARAJA as their better when he came out.

Poor Gable.

He really got screwed with Jason Jordan going to Raw.

So goes a talented Gable at least he got to keep the theme.

Pretty cool RKO OUTTA NOWHERE moment

Randy seemed so alive when he was a Wyatt now its like hes going through the motions again.

Shane McMahon joined nWo Hollywood brother

Shane sweaty

Was washing dishes did I miss fashion peaks?

beat shane up match?

Wouldn't be surprised if Shane pulled the PG version of this against Owens. Extra points if a random zoom to Owens face also happens.

yesss

:lol: Woods

I love that they actually acknowledge the New Day line up change as significant

Isn't this match also happening at SummerSlam

Yes. The roster is huge and all they could do was give you a mini summerslam

Has there been a PPV in the last 5 years where at least one of the PPV matches didn't see one participant defeat the other on TV the week before? It's remarkably lazy.

Pretty much just Lesnar singles matches since he almost never wrestles on tv.

:lol: Viktor

Breezango are the best thing in the history of professional wrestling.

wonder if this match will end in a Singh Bros run-in

Corbin a moron

If Corbin was smart he would've just cashed in

also that was Jinder's best match as champ, credit to Cena

lol baron x2 idiot moves in a row

:lol: if they legit have a title change to end Smackdown

damn

WHBHHWAHAHHAHHA

Cena gonna cost him the match

JINDER!!!!!!!!

OMG they actually wasted it.

:lol: that was dumb as hell.

Lolwtf haha

smh

LOL FUCK BORING CORBIN

so...wouldn't have corbin still had a match against a champion cena at SS if he would have allowed him to win? ..or would have shin?

FUCK CENA.

LMFAO that was hysterical

At least this means Corbin won't be champ this year.

Cenas a dumbass if he lets Corbin win he'd have a title match..Jesus Christ there was so much stupid in the last 5 minuted

So now it's Cena, Sandow and Corbin on the list of guts who failed to cash in successfully.

I feel like I should be pissed off.....but MITB is so played out that I don't mind people losing their opportunity occasionally. At least it wasn't a Sandow where he lost clean.

Wonder if Damien Sandow is smiling right now. He's no longer the only guy to actually fail his cash-in.

I think the match was non-title.

Also Jinder is easier to beat than Cena.

Damn Corbin just wasted his MITB

Best 10 minutes of wrestling that I have ever watched. Thank God Cena was on or I would have skipped the entire show and missed the cash in.

Love the AA from the second rope too.

The one plot hole I can see is that, presumably, Cena just cost himself a title match.

But I guess you can explain that away with Cena not wanting to take away that opportunity from Nakamura who beat him fair and square.

Cena was laid out. He probably had no idea what was going on and wanted to beat Corbins aww. Stop making such w big deal out of it everyone.

I can't stop laughing at how much I loved that.

The best thing WWE has done, excluding Fashion Files, all year. So fucking funny.

Hopefully this means the WWE has seen how boring Corbin is.

If MITB is gonna still be a thing, they need to change it up now and then. Just having a heel waltz in for an easy title win got incredibly stale a few years ago.

This at least establishes MITB isn't a guarantee for success. It breathes new life into the gimmick.

Did you forget that Cena also failed his cash-in? Think it was against Punk. I do remember him giving a week's advance warning, and they gave that as the main explanation for his loss. Big Show interfered and got him DQ'ed.

Within 2 days, WWE gave away a title change (Cruiser), a high profile match with clean ending (Bray vs Finn), and an official cash-in instead of waiting a few more days for SummerSlam.

Fuck Dave Meltzer!

Cena won by DQ and only failed by a technicality since he didn't get the belt. Before today, Sandow was the only one to actually fail by pin/submission.

Disagree...it's mostly meant for opportunistic moments for guys to cash in and it should stay that way...doesn't mean every cash in needs to be successful per se, but no real reason to try to fix the way it is now when it's clearly not broken.

That was some grade A faggotry.

The titles look like shit partially because of it. it's lazy and doesn't actually get guys over now. It's broken.

Also, BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Fuck Corbin.

And Ken Kennedy with an asterisk.

:Vince voice: "BUT HE'S TALL!!! AND MENACING!!! LOOK AT HOW TALL AND MENACING HE IS, DAMMIT!!!"

What exactly is the scale for grading "faggotry"?

Personally I loved the ending. Didn't see it coming and it made me laugh.

On a character note it made sense. Corbin was so obsessed with costing Cena the match he forgot he could have just cashed in. He made his way back up to the ramp, looked backed and then it dawned on him.

He saw Cena out of the corner of his eye as the title match began and his goal once again became Cena. That lust cost him an easy title victory and I am hoping Corbin goes banana all over Cena at SummerSlam.

I hope Cena squashes Corbin and he starts jobbing to Mojo Rawley.

Me, if I NEEDED Corbin to win a belt, was do it at Summerslam.

Wait for Lesnar, Strowman, Reigns, and Joe to kill each other. Cash in on whoever wins, or more specifically, survives.

After all, does it specifically say it HAD to be for the WWE World Title?

Wasnt the Cena the 1st to fail?
