bono Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Is there really no thread to discuss the biggest event of the summer?am i missing the thread somewhere  Im still in two minds whether to buy it or not. Should be a good show  Sting has been spotted in the building by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Murtz Posted August 17, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted August 17, 2014 This has been the best Summerslam build up since probably 2005. Hopefully it delivers. Cena/Brock almost certainly will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Looks like the best PPV card in ages, from top to bottom. Everything's got a story behind it, and a lot of the main matches haven't been done to death on TV. That's the great thing with special attraction talent. This show is a massive step up from the last couple of PPVs. Â Here's the brilliant Cena vs Lesnar half-hour "prelude" video from the network: Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQeb21UUZvU Â If you're on the fence about buying it, that should convince you.

RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Expecting Lesnar/Cena to be as brutal as the Extreme Rules match 2 years ago sans the weaponry, also think, despite the stip, that Ambrose/Rollins will be the showstealer. Curious to see Stephanie back in the ring for the first time in I believe 11 years tonight as well though I fear the match may go on far too long, certainly longer than Paige/AJ which would be a shame   FYI the Preshow match tonight is RVD v Cesaro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted August 17, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted August 17, 2014 The top matches look really good. Lesnar vs Cena is one of the few big time atmospheres you can get these days, so that should be great. Will be watching this. Â Anyone chatting it tonight?

King Pitcos Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 What chat do we use now? Still the same one but doing all the unblocking and security settings stuff? Â Expecting Lesnar/Cena to be as brutal as the Extreme Rules match 2 years ago sans the weaponry, also think, despite the stip, that Ambrose/Rollins will be the showstealer. Curious to see Stephanie back in the ring for the first time in I believe 11 years tonight as well though I fear the match may go on far too long, certainly longer than Paige/AJ which would be a shame Paige and AJ are both useless normally, so they shouldn't go any longer than a handful of minutes. Stephanie and Brie shouldn't, either. Unless Kane, Bryan, Nikki and co are getting involved and they make that interesting. I just hope it's not another Bret vs Vince or Lawler vs Cole.

Paid Members GlennCullen Posted August 17, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted August 17, 2014 I'm down in Cornwall for a break so for the first time in years I'll be off work the Monday after a WWE PPV, buzzing. Card looks really strong and the main should be absolutely brutal. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted August 17, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted August 17, 2014 The build for this was tremendous and it should lead to some heated matches. Hopefully they've got a bit of sense about them and they throw all sorts into the Stephanie/Brie match - done well, I can see it stealing the show. Â It's a cracking line-up, this.

Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted August 17, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted August 17, 2014 As someone without Sky and therefore doesn't watch WWE programming, the build-up has been tremendous. The video packages for Brock vs. Cena have been some of the best in recent memory and has an MMA feel to it where they're just selling the match on two big guys clashing for the top prize, and it works. Â I'm also bizarrely intrigued by Stephanie vs. Brie. That's had a great build up too with the arrest angles on Raw and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyc Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 A few months ago the prospect of another match between John Cena and Brock Lesnar didn't really grab me but that's changed over the last few weeks. I'll give credit to the WWE for doing a fantastic job of making this match feel big time.  Even though it hit its high point around a week too early the build to Stephanie McMahon/Brie Bella has been superb overall and I think the match will deliver something beyond what most people are expecting from them. I'm going for Stephanie to win thanks in part to a heel turn from Nikki Bella.  Seth Rollins/Dean Ambrose and even Roman Reigns/Randy Orton have the potential to be the show stealers also, as does Bray Wyatt vs. Jericho.  I agree that the build to this show has been fantastic and the card is full of potential show stealing matches. It's a stacked show and I'd be surprised if it fails to deliver with such a strong lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Of Swing Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Only thing I'm not looking forward to is the Network begging making the commentary team even more annoying than they normally are. Other than that it's a stacked card that should deliver the goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
