Cole had me ejected, still holds a grudge for calling him an emotionless robot after all these years

Drew vs Punk Priest vs Gunther Sami vs Bron Logan vs Knight Rhea vs Liv Bayley vs Nia Cody vs Solo
7 matches, all singles. Is this the first Summerslam in history with no tags? Interesting.
Even though I only care about maybe 3 of these actual matches (more interested in angles than the wrestling) credit them for not overpacking the show.
Drew Gunther Bron Knight Liv Bayley (Stratton cash in) Cody

This should be a fantastic show and a very easy watch. Every match is properly built, and there are no matches that are thrown on the show just for the sake of having a match.
WWE deserves praise for how efficient and tight their PPVs are. There's essentially zero filler.

Dom is turning on Rhea. Giggity.
Drew should win, but I can see Seth screwing Punk to break them off a bit.
Roman and Heyman make a return in the main event.

Punk posted this on his Instagram. It was later deleted.

Ignorant question, but who is the short guy?

Rob Feinstein. Runs RFVideo where you’ve seen a bunch of shoot interviews over the years. He’s also a pedophile.
Damn Drew, after I defended you in the other thread, you take a picture with this prick? C’mon.
Here I was just coming to praise Drew’s latest move too.

He had a front row seat on Raw the other night too. Right between Cole and McAfee.

I feel like Dusty and Jelly Roll would have been tight.

A stadium setting adds so much to the presentation for me.

The referee has a camera on his head.
Long live WCW’s Refer-eye cam!

That completely felt like a house show match, but the atmosphere and storytelling made it feel like a much bigger deal.
Good opener. This feud obviously isn’t done.

Bron needed the win. Hopefully has a long reign. Didn’t need to be a long match, exactly how it should’ve been.
Not sure where Sami goes from here. Hopefully getting back involved in the Bloodline would be great actually. Sami, Roman & The Usos vs new Bloodline

“Go back to the mid card where you belong.” - Logan Paul
Coming up next in the…middle of the card…Logan Paul vs LA Knight

How do we make Logan even more of a douchebag? Throw MGK out there with him.
Where’s Kevin Owens to powerbomb this idiot off the stage again?

I think Corey Graves just called Prime, Brawndo.

Knight needs this win here. When was his last meaningful win?

“Why don’t we call him Hogan Paul with that leg drop?”
My goodness. You all need to take back your praise of Cole and admit I was right!!

Logan Paul is pretty good at this wrestling thing.

Logan’s a garbage human being, but by far the best celebrity ever to wrestle.
Foot under the rope for the pin. Unintentional Dusty finish, brother

Really good match except the finish was a bit of a hot mess. But have to give props to Logan Paul, he did some insane things in that match.

While Logan has picked up this wrestling thing quickly
Nia has been wrestling nearly 10 years and is…still terrible

I will say I’d prefer watching Nia wrestle over Tanga Loa

Tiffy put her gear on for that?
What’s the opposite of workhorse champion? That’ll be Nia
