[8/20] WWE SummerSlam Thread: The Summer That Never Ends; 2 Hour Preshow at 5 pm ET

Okay that might have been the deadliest RKO I've ever seen. Rusev killed himself even more than RVD did on that one.

I think that's my new fave. That shyt was viscous.

fukk Randy all day though.

It would be impossible for Braun to do that, cause he can talk very well, and comes across as legit. He shouldn't even be compared to Corbin. Corbin and Cass are the ones that are in the same category. Potential is there for both, but they have a lot of work to do as well.

Can anyone in the know fill me in on why Corbin lost the brief case then lost to Cena.

Is he being punished for some backstage fukkery?

After a relatively uneventful loss to John Cena right on the heels of a devastating failed MITB cash-in, speculation is rampant that Baron Corbin has backstage heat, possibly for his twitter antics. Today on WOR at http://f4wonline.com, Dave Meltzer touched on this issue in a very insightful episode.

Dave stated that after losing to Cena in an unremarkable match that Corbin is definitely being "punished." Dave said that the booking of Corbin in the match did not make him come off as a featured or important performer, but rather "just a guy." After yesterday reporting that backstage is very high on Bobby Roode, and speculating that Roode would be positioned as a top-5 wrestler on whichever brand he is called up to, Meltzer today speculated that he wouldn't be surprised if Roode is called to SDL and gets Corbin's spot. Meltzer commented that the Cena match didn't even appear to be botched or messed up in any way; it was not laid out to be a good match.

Is it just me or did baron Corbin back on a few pounds of fat? He seemed more flabby than from what I've seen before.

I remember seeing some Performance Center video and Matt Bloom aka Albert getting on Corbin for not working on his abs. Clearly.

They should throw Cass in the Miztourage as Miz's bodyguard to help him get over.

And this right here, this is Big Cass and he's a chubby D-Lister and you can't teach that

I can't even disagree

How would a program that's been built for weeks with multiple guys NOT be better than a "feud" where the only interaction was 4 days prior ??

Because Roman is a team player that's why. He always puts folks over. That's what I love about him. When he takes those Ls he takes them...no complaints. Cena has to win every damn thing but Roman sells every match he's in.

almost everything you just typed could be applied to cena as well, shyt cena gets criticized for being such a team player/boss's pet. also cena just lost to shinsuke clean for a championship opportunity only for shinsuke to lose

Ce-Goat put no one over in his prime unless they were cashing in

He lost to A-Train Clean

 

[Rell Lauren]

Apparently Rusev asked for his release last week. Could explain what happened at SummerSlam.
