Hello again this will be my frist review. Just so you know I will not just be doing reviews I like to mix things up a bit and not everyone will be about wrestling but I will try to review every ppv so lets get on with it lol. When going into tonight I had the feeling it was going be a good summer slam but when I usually go in with that feeling I'm usually let down..... But I wasn't actually I enjoyed this card it for the most part held up its definitely worth a repeat view. Now on to the negative I understand that they being the WWE had sponsors but the shilling was way to much it seemed like every 5mins I was reminded about pizza rolls or mtn. dew and some issues with the matches them selves but I will break each match down. Here we go... pre show match Rvd vs Cesaro I actually didn't know much going in to this I may have missed it or they did no promotion for it but I used to be a big rvd fan but that was in ecw.. Tonight cesaro was the star sadly he did not have the best person to work with I was let down it seem when rvd wrestles he is in slow motion winner: rvd match rating from a plus or minus scale rating - now on to the ppv the opening video had this cool grind house feel to it much like the promos we seen before match 1 IC championship match the Miz vs dolph ziggler this was an awesome start to the actual event dolph prove to me that he has it. I actually enjoyed the Miz in this match( this I think is a first) these two can really work well together and I was glad to see ziggler win winner: and new ic champion dolph ziggler rating: + match 2 divas championship aj lee vs Paige now going into its match I had low expectations .....ok when I say low I mean very low expectations I am not a fan of aj and less of a fan of Paige but this was entertaining I like the fact that Paige toyed with aj and the reversals kept me glued to the screen even after the match Paige kept playing the mind games. I have a question to ask who do u think she toying with aj, us or herself? Plus Paige plays a better heel winner: and new divias champ paige rating: + match 3 the flag match rusev vs jack swagger ok I'm sorry but I did not like the fact that WWE changed the rules of a flag match. The rules are usually like capture the flag rules where u either get your own flag or your opponents this on the other hand was a normal match with the winner getting the flag and national anthem played in sorry I couldn't get over that fact but the match did tell a great story and showed that Lana must take acting lessons from Sofia Vargra but still the fact that WWE change what a flag match was took me out of it winner: rusev rating: wrestling + but the rules - now on to match 4 Seth Rollins vs Dean Ambrose in a lumberjack match usually I would name all of the lumberjacks but it was pretty much everyone else including Kane that was not involved in a match. But that was good this match was what I expected a complete melee some people on twitter were put off by it but I and others thought it picked things up a bit the crowd really got into it. After Kane caused more chaos and Seth hit dean with the briefcase and won. Even though dean lost I was happy. This is not by far the end of this war . winner: Seth Rollins rating: + match 5 Bray Wyatt vs y2j Chris Jericho this was what I expected it to be as well and it was nice to see that a match can be slow and have a story that was good and be good after following the last match y2j proves why he is one of the best in the business and Bray Wyatt is definitely the future I was glad to actually see a rest hold in a match and I also like the promo that followed winner: Bray Wyatt rating: + match 6 Stephanie McMahon vs brie bella ok I have to give props to Steph for her skill. She was great for not wrestling in 10 years and after 3 kids so... What the hell is brie's excuse I was never a fan of the bellas and this did not help neither did the fact that Nikki Bella did the heel turn that everyone and I mean everyone predicted and also the fact that I am expected to believe that brie can take out triple h and that Steph was dressed as mistress steph winner: Stephanie McMahon rating: steph's performance + the rest of the match - match 7 Roman Reigns vs Randy Orton I honestly forgot all about this match and after watching it I see why it was hard for me to enjoy but both men did very well Orton really carried this match and was very smooth and showed us why he is one of the greatest WWE superstars but I couldn't help feel kinda like ehh when roman won. Then need to let him grow a little and get more experience before making him wwe heavyweight champion but over all it was a good match winner: roman reigns rating: a hesitating + now on to the main event match 8 for the WWE world heavyweight championship Brock lesnar vs John cena this was a great main event . it was short brutal and to the point and why not Brock is the man who ended the streak this built Brock to be the monster that he is sorry cena fans but this was awesome winner: new WWE world heavyweight champion Brock lesnar like I said above this was great. here is a fun fact as it was pointed out to me on twitter by @iamtheswink that this was the first time since WWE summerslam 91 that all titles defeneded changed hands I hope you all enjoyed this review and I like to thank all of my friends and family for all of there love and support now and for the past 30 years of my life and special to one of my best friends Scott hunter and to Alice Radley for encouraging me to create this blog I would appreciate for your honest opinion on how I am doing with this blog you can email me at [email protected] and follow me on Twitter @natemcgonigal.
