WWE SummerSlam 8.19.18 "Lesnar vs Reigns IV, Let The Coronation Begin"

[Kidd Dibiase]

fans couldn't even enjoy the moment, ruined it with that who's your daddy chant

 

[RammerJammer]

I'll give WWE credit, the show was good last night

- Rollins vs Ziggler was a dope opener
- New Day vs Bludgeon Bros was straight, didn't care for the finish
- Strowman vs KO was a squash, would've rather seen someone else in KO's position but it made Braun look strong
- Becky turning on Charlotte was good but if they think she's gonna get booed then they're idiots
- Joe vs Styles was actually better than I was expecting and the ending just upped the ante in the feud
- I thought Miz vs Bryan went on a bit too long but the right guy won, Miz is about to be a next level heel
- Demon Finn returning was a cool moment, good call by them making it a squash
- Nakamura vs Hardy was pointless imo, shouldn't have even been on the card
- Rousey vs Bliss was a 4 minute match, Ronda toyed around with Alexa then ended her, served it's purpose
- Lesnar vs Reigns wasn't bad, they clearly brought Braun out to tame the crowd, shytty ending though but at least Lesnar ain't champ no more

I enjoyed this SummerSlam more than the last two years

I'm still laughing at that Le'Braun shyt.

Breh comes out like I'm not going to do what everyone does (cash in after the match), but instead let you know ahead of time that I will still cash in after the match.

Then gets mollywhopped to the point he can't even crawl to get the briefcase

• There are reports of backstage heat on Velveteen Dream due to the “Call me up, Vince” tights he wore on that show, including from Brad Shepard on Twitter. Dream tweeted and deleted a response to them, per Ringside News.

the little things always turn out to be big when it comes to the black superstars.

No swerve to lead into the Survivor Series feuds.

They aren't thinking that far ahead, Hell in the Cell is their next priority. That's why AJ/Joe ended in a DQ and I'm sure they'll continue Bludgeons/New Day as well.

It was approved or they wouldn't have let him wear it. So don't get mad at him, get mad at management.

Wtf was her paint supposed to be?

Smokey eye, with the smoke coming out her eyes?

He's two years older than you.

IC was not clean, there was interference, then interference to stop the interference, both of these men were wildly distracted right before the pin. I'm just the type where I want PPV matches to be bell to bell no fukkery, either a face or heel gets a real rub, and you can set up rematches for next month on weekly TV through storylines. I loved the squashes btw.

That's mostly what Takeovers give you.

 

[Broad Street Bully]

Turned it off as the Balor/Baron match started to watch Ballers but ended up falling asleep on that but I see I aint miss shyt of any significance. Same story.

 

[Rell Lauren]

Braun's character is barely treading water. He was used as a prop so people wouldn't leave.

Imagine them doing that in any other era

It’s looks like these that make me believe that the WWE Glam Squad are nothing but low tier, amateur makeup artists that didn’t make it in the fashion world or Hollywood

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Wait was it you that sent the bat to the arena last week to scare Ronda?

That reverse psychology. Probably heard he was getting that call up, looked at the recent call ups, decided to put it on his tights and now he’ll take the heat and just bide his time in NXT till they have actual plans set for him when he gets on the main roster (i.e., when Vince croaks or is distracted by XFL)
