WWE SummerSlam 2025 Discussion

@Supremo that's a lovely Hocus Pocus reference. Top work.

People gibbering about Cody vs Cena being a tough one to call. Is it? Probably nailed on Cody win for me. Cena to renounce his evil ways by year end, lose to Gunther then hang em up.

Probably see Punk winning the Silver Medal from Big Gunt at one point, might not necessarily be this weekend though. Seth to cash in on Punk and that will be the final absolute end of it between them. Before they move toward Punk vs Cody and Rollins vs Reigns on the way to Mania 42.

Night Two (“Fuck yeah!”)

Are these match graphics airbrushed onto the side of a travelling fun fair or something?

Your whole write up got me excited for the show where I previously wasn’t. But I also need to watch this Hogan/Vader match asap. Where is it from?

[Dr. Alan Grant]

Vader time

Bash at the Beach 95. 
 

Bonus feature: Their Superbrawl V match earlier the same year is more highly regarded and is also on YouTube:

Let’s not forget the strap match at Uncensored where for reasons unknown Hogan was permitted to win by strapping himself to Ric Flair and dragging him to all four corners instead of his opponent.

It wasn’t fair to Vader, but it most certainly was not fair to Flair.

After looking at the graphics and cards for each day there's a fair bit too get excited for and high chance of delivering over both.

I personally see Cody and punk winning the belt obviously with shit tones of shenanigans for both.

I don't think there going with Seth doing the cash in to screw punk after pushing Seth getting injured only three weeks prior which does not constitute it being a shock return cash in at all, it is being questioned if it's a real injury or a work from most outlets which would get a groan response not a collective shocked response from most people.

What happened to Cardi B hosting? A few months back they kept running that "I'm hosting! Two nights!" trail without actually naming who it was, I had to Google her. 

And now not a whisper. She been Travis Scotted?

They've not advertised her recently which is odd

But she does still repost things about WWE and  Summerslam and there has been a bit of back and forth with Chelsea Green on socal media 

And this was something from a few days ago

Green spoke to ClutchPoints about the upcoming Netflix behind-the-scenes series, WWE: Unreal. During the interview, Green addressed her ongoing beef with the “Drip” rapper. While she is not “planning” any sort of confrontation, she will if necessary. In fact, she has gear ready for the occasion.

“Look, I'm not planning anything,” Green said. “However, if Little Miss Cardi decided to step in my way of my SummerSlam dreams and goals, well, then maybe something would happen. So, I'm just anxiously awaiting. I've got gear in case anything happens.”

So it seems she may still be involved and likely going to do something with Chelsea Green as a way of getting her on the card as well

But it is odd they've stopped all the advertising of her as being guest host

I think Cody definitely wins. Whether they do the double turn is another story. Either way even if Cody doesn’t turn I think Cena comes out of it as a face again. 
 

I feel like Gunther will retain. Hasn’t long won the belt back and the feud with Punk has seemed a bit rushed. I see there’s been talk of the Reigns/Uso against the Bron’s main eventing Night 1. That would suggest something big to end the show. Whether that’s a turn for Jey or a return of someone to align with Heyman. 
 

Some good stuff on both nights and some dross so should be an interesting weekend!

A person walking out and raising fingers with no real purpose, perhaps? Hyped up!

I think they showed a graphic of her on Raw when they were running down the times of all the shows over the weekend (Kickoff, Countdown, Post Show etc.) so I’m assuming she’s still hosting.

Surely not that would be unreal if Roman goes last with such a rushed build instead of the world title match completely destroys the importance and significance of the world championship which they haven't done since making it because Roman wasn't dropping anytime soon.

Also it cannot end in someone turning on Roman and laying him out closing the show, he's gone from a unbeatable/master of everything to someone who's easy to read and completely human like everyone else on the roster.

You can only drag out the unbeatable stuff for so long. At some point someone needs to have hurdles and challenges. He's still massively over. No one can be booked like he was forever.
