alright hot take time...

thats the most shocking thing of 2017 for me.

 

Think Nak may actually win at SS

 

Daaaaaang, Shinsuke after one finisher, clean, middle of the ring on Cena. I love it.

 

I'm glad I tuned in, was as certain as anyone else it would end in tomfuckery. Did not expect anything like that.

 

Then get cashed in on is my bet; set up a Nak/Corbin feud for a few months

 

This is carrying over on the network

 

And gets cashed in on

 

Thats now AJ, Bray, and Shinsuke he's put over clean in the last year. Too bad they wasted the Bray one.

 

This happened off air apparently

 

cena v corbin at summerslam

 

Its on the Network

 

CORBIN JUST DRAGGING THOSE 4 KILOTON STAIRS

 

Gonna be the opening match or something; just like Randy/Seth to throw people off the scent.

 

There's gonna be like 20 matches at SS

 

Shinsuke with his best showing yet, getting fans invested.... just to have to carry Jinder to "meh" stars at Summerslam

 

Nak with a WWE Title match at a Big Four PPV is amazing...except that I wish it were against pretty much anyone else

 

Summerslam?
1) Fatal 4 Way for Universal
2) Jinder vs Nakamura for the WWE Title (lmao what)
3) Owens vs Aj w/ Shane as special ref
4) Jordan vs Miz for IC
5) New day vs usos for SD tag (this could use a stip of some sort)
6) Shesaro vs Sheild for Raw titles
7) Hardys, Revival match...maybe club
8) Bray vs Balor
9) Bayley vs Bliss raw women
10) Natalya vs Naomi SD womens
11) Orton vs Rusev (why?)

maybes
12) Corbin vs Cena
13) something for the other women to do?
14) something for Zayn, Kanelis, Aiden, Big Cass, Drifter, Fashion Police, Hype bros, jobbers
15) Cruiserweights

holy shit. Summerslam is going to be long as fuck

 

Metalik is still employed

 

Preshow will probably have like 3 matches

 

Just with whats official and highly likely, theres 12 matches, which is what they had last year

Official
1. Univ Title Fatal 4-way
2. Jinder v Shinsuke
3. AJ v KO
4. Naomi v Natalya
5. Bayley v Alexa
6. Neville v Tozawa
7. Orton v Rusev

Highly likely
8. Usos v New Day
9. Cena v Corbin
10. Bray v Balor
11. Cesaro/Sheamus v Dean/Seth
12. Miz v Jordan

That leaves off the Hardys, Revival, Club, Sasha, Nia, etc from RAW. And Sami, Breezango, Becky/Carmella, etc from Smackdown. Makes the Orton/Rusev thing seem kind of dumb, since if anything, thats a match you save for the next PPV since its had no build

 

the most matches summerslam has ever had was last year with 12 (thats including preshow).

are we really going to have 15 matches this year?!

 

Im thinking Natalya/Naomi goes to the pre-show unless its a cash-in. CW match too. I just dont see any way, unless they drop 4 pre-show matches, that they dont either leave off a bunch of women, or leave off Sami, etc.

 

There is no way the Hardys are left off Summerslam. A lot of these matches have no heat and will probably top out at ten minutes I feel

 

is the cruiserweight a LOCK? I mean i guess so. If that's the case and Cena/Corbin is most likely...that's 13 matches i have that are all but definite. And that still leaves a TON of talent off.

I mean i guess in a way i'm okay with not having everyone on the card, but there are a lot of pretty known wrestlers not in anything.

yokozuna memorail battle royal? haha

 

that's certainly true. Jinder vs Nak doesn't have to be a long match... neither women matches sound like wrestling clinics either. but that's still a wholeee lot of match.

Rusev vs orton...that feels like a waste
