Yea there's been no build up for anything but the 2 title matches.
Have fun getting 3-4 undercard matches thrown together and announced like tomorrow.
I'm guessing Miz/Rey, Morrison/Truth, Bryan/Barrett

Think Morrison/Truth is probably done now, considering Truth got such a definitive clean win over him on Raw. I'm hoping Miz and Rey is added but outside of that I'm not really bothered. Would rather then have five really good matches than put people on for the sake of it, just because they're supposed to be on the shows or whatever.

Just watched Smackdown and Hunico looked really comfortable as Sin Cara. I'm almost hoping that they keep him on, I mean, I know Mistico is capable but I'd rather have someone who can do all his moves without trepidation on a weekly basis, instead of him doing them AND adjusting to being in a WWE ring at the same time.

They really should have tried to take that screenshot at a less awkward moment

Best Summerslam in years, by a mile.
Literally everything on the show was good. The opener was an unexpected surprise, which ended up being really enjoyable. Sheamus/Henry was damn good and had a creative finish that put both guys over. Beth/Kelly was good and I loved Beths new attire. Bryan/Barrett is by a mile Barretts best match in WWE and who could be surprised when he's going up against Bryan. Barrett needed the win more, so him getting it makes sense.
Christian/Orton was their second best match ever (After Over the Limit, in my eyes) and was the best "hardcore" match we've seen in WWE in years. The finish made my jaw drop, such a simple yet fucking amazing moment. I wasn't even mad that Orton won because of it. Main event was, interesting. I didn't enjoy the match as much as I did at MITB, but I put that down to me just waiting for the inevitable shenanigans.
I was excited when Punk won, but it was pretty much a lock that he'd get taken out, I didn't expect it to be KEVIN NASH though. I'm not against it, but I do think that they've kind of ruined the 6 weeks of build, making Punk look legitimate only to then have him win the main event, get Jackknifed and hit with the weakest enziguri I have ever seen to lose his belt.
Del Rio is not ready to be champion and I'm glad they're getting his run out of the way now, because he'll be well away from the title picture before Wrestlemania, thankfully. Very good show.

I think Rey is going to win the title tonight since its in San Diego, and thus will set up a Fatal 4 Way at Night of Champions, since Punk/Cena/Del Rio will all have rematch claims.
But yea, it was a good show
