MAJOR SummerSlam News - 2 Legends booked to return
 

Woah...

Surfer/Biker? Please say yes. Omg that would rule.

BOOK IT

Most likely I think The Undertaker interferes in the Lesnar/Rollins match to keep the belt on Rollins and to set up Taker vs Lesnar II at Summerslam. Makes sense; avenges the streak and Lesnar putting Kane out of action.

Really lame if Taker "gets his win back" from Lesnar though.

If Kane wasn't written out of the show, a return of THE DEMON KANE to tag with The Undertaker as The Brothers of Destruction would be pretty dope and a good final run for them both where they can work as a tag to hide their limitations. Kane and The Undertaker vs Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose would be cool at some point.

If Undertaker is aligned with the authority we kind of have a Corporate Ministry thing going don't we?

For Sting, I dunno. I'd hate to see him go 0-2 for his WWE career, so booking him is more difficult. I don't know who I'd want to put him over though.

Put Sting over Adam Rose.

For some reason, the thought of Sting vs Stardust popped into my head. And I don't mind it.

I don't mind Stardust vs anyone.

Yeah Sting vs Stardust would be grand, heck make it a Triple thread with Neville so the match would be good too.

That's a good idea

I think they might just go with Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker. Not sure where they go with Sting, exactly, but I wouldn't be opposed to seeing Sting avenge his WrestleMania loss and beat Triple H in a short match at SummerSlam. Either him or Bo Dallas in an impromptu match.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, first things first...if they really want to take this year's event to the next level, they need to re-name it to SummerFest! :shifty:

Oh, and have Jeremy Piven as the host of the show.

At this stage in his career, Undertaker's mouth is essentially just a vehicle for other wrestlers to deposit their semen. My hope is that Taker retires pretty soon.

I think they will do Taker/Sting for the spectacle at Mania, so this is to set up two mini feuds to put over both guys big at Summerslam to lead into that match. Don't think a win over Stardust does anything for Sting in this scenario.

Maybe Taker over Seth (who can carry a match) and Sting over Triple H (with a slight Rock distraction)

Still say putting him in the HoF the night before WM 33 and having him get one last win to make him 24-1 @ WM all-time, having wrestled 25 matches at the show is the way to go Have him share a brief emotional moment with his final opponent in-ring, then have the cameras follow him as he slowly saunters up the ramp one last time before raising his right fist high into the air, and looking back at the crowd one ladt time before walking backstage.

Then the following night on RAW, give him the Flair-style retirement with a nice video package, maybe a small speech from The Deadman himself, and a bunch of the guys coming down to the ring to say goodbye to him once more before he "officially" retires.

That would be pretty good.

I'm wondering if Taker's last match at Mania' should be against Cena......with Cena going over.

Cena basically plays the role of HBK while Taker plays the role of Flair.

'Taker shouldn't even have 1 loss, let alone suffer a second. He should win @ WM 32 & 33 (assuming no injuries keep him out of either or both; he IS 50, after all) and retire 24-1. Otherwise if Cena (or anyone) wins a theoretical match with him @ WM, he has a more diminished résumé for the HoF than his 1 loss has already done.

lol Taker's HoF resume is not in any danger of being diminished. Come on.

Wait? What? Wow

Why does everyone think Cena needs to continue to add things to his resume?

<font color=goldenrod>Why would Taker suddenly care about avenging his WM30 loss when an entire WM has passed by in which Taker fought somebody completely different and won?</font>

Well I mean it was kind of his crowning achievement in the company. He's never struck me as the kind of guy who cares about money, titles or popularity.

The streak is his crowning achievement. It happened... and it's over. He doesn't need to keep winning matches now to "protect his legacy" or anything.

Observer on the current matches planned for Suumerslam involving the big surprises:

he lost clean to

<font color=goldenrod>Exactly. There's nothing for him to avenge, he lost fair and square. And even if he DID want to avenge the loss, you'd think he would have done it the next year rather than going "oh wait, gotta take care of Bray Wyatt first."</font>

Unless he turned heel and is working for The Authority or something.

Then again, that wouldn't really be him avenging his loss.

I don't know. All I know is if they did this massive build over a year and a half for Lesnar just to have him lose to Taker, Vince, Triple H and Stephanie all need to fire themselves.

I'm guessing they will go with the angle being that Brock and Heyman poked the bear one time too many when they overtly insulted Taker and proceeded to insult Kane and shattered his ankle.

THE CORPORATE MINISTRY IS BACK

Faarooq and Bradshaw will replace J&J Security

Him avenging the loss is probably what they are going to use even though they've been using the same routine to get him to show up for years now.

Someone randomly summons his name either in a mocking or demeaning manner and Taker suddenly appears a week or so later. Like Vito said, Taker could have easily had his chance earlier in the year but since Bray summoned him, Taker forgot about everything Lesnar related at the time.

Since Heyman summoned him last, now Taker suddenly remembers why he hates Lesnar.

Was just reminded of how The Shield put Taker out of action after WrestleMania 29 and he didn't do shit about it. That makes the idea of him helping Rollins out as part of his revenge on a guy who beat him clean even more silly.

Actually, Taker should have showed up after the pre-show match to beat down King Barrett as revenge for leading an army of men to bury him alive. Seems like the first guy you'd want revenge on.

They could easily use that he attacked his brother Kane as the reason for his newfound motivation.

Rollins attacked Kane too.

Or just the fact that Paul has mentioned 21-1 every time he gets a mic.

I read the vigilante Sting will tag team with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose to face off against the Wyatt Family. Good way to hide Sting's limited ability.

Reigns and Ambrose vs. Wyatt and Harper should be decent.

Rumored card for Summerslam at the moment according to the dirtsheets:

well that certainly reads like a lackluster show.
