Summerslam 2015 is rapidly approaching and I thought it
would be fun to have a quick breakdown of the matches on this year’s card. A PPV event that feels like a Teddy Long has
come back to manage the show. Holla Holla!!! Playa!!!
1. Kevin
Owen’s Vs Cesaro
Wow, anyone remember when Kevin Owens was wrestling John
Cena for the US belt, or when he was on NXT as the NXT Champion? Well not
anymore, now he is on the lower end of the card wrestling against Cesaro, now
don’t get me wrong I love both these guys and really want both of them to rise
to the top of the main card. I just can’t see WWE back office letting either of
them get to where both of these guys deserve to be, which is a real shame. Hopefully will get to see some great spots
from Cesaro during this match just to wow everyone with his sheer power!
However if you’re asking me for the winner here, it has
to be Owens as with the exception of his 1 win over Cena his debut has been a
little lacklustre in my opinion. But
should be booking bill good we will see a Kevin Owens win here after what
should be in theory a great match.
2. Fatal
4 Way Tag Team Title Match
Prime Time Players (c) vs. The
New Day vs. Los Matadores vs. The Lucha Dragons
This should be an interesting tag team match; I’m
imagining some high flying antics in this match which again should make for
some fun wrestling. Also good to see more tag teams getting some PPV time, may
lead to an actual fun / interesting tag team division. I’ve always enjoyed tag team wrestling so
will be cool to see if this match leads to more prominent roles on future WWE
shows for the tag team division.
However I’m going to say the Prime Time Players will pick
up the win here, good to see a tag team I quite enjoyed when they first formed finally
getting some decent exposure.
3. Triple
Threat Intercontinental Championship Match
Ryback (c) vs. The Miz vs. The
Big Show
The IC title division has become a little stale, it’s a
shame Daniel Bryan got injured and needed to vacate the title really. Not a big
fan of Ryback or the Miz in all honestly. The Big Show I do like, but if I was
booking him I would try to have him as an inbetweener, just knocking out
everyone, very similar to Randy Orton’s style. I imagine this match will be what it is and
little else, probably will not be the star of the show in all honestly.
Ryback will no doubt pick up the win here, the IC
division needs some stability, so a long term fighting champion may just help
get the division back upto to the status it used to be, back when the IC champ
was the one putting on the show stealing matches or even the best laid out
matches. That would be living the
dream., we will see if Ryback can pull that off.
4. Stardust
& King Barrett vs. Neville & Stephen Amell
I really, really, really hope Amell brings the Arrow gear
to the show and wears it during the match that would be EPIC!! This match is
going to be junk I would imagine, I’ll predict Neville tagging in Amell just to
get the pin fall here. Hopefully though will get to see more and see if Amell
has done some wrestling training leading into the match, surely the Arrow can
take on the evil plans of Stardust and King Barrett.
Fingers crossed the good guy team here will pick up the
win, this match screams “comic book” and as we know the good guys always win in
comics... “You have failed this city!”
5. What’s
left of “THE SHIELD” vs. What’s left of “THE WYATT FAMILY”
Ok, this match feels very 2014 but missing 2 players from
the board. Well I’m thinking the team of Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns will be
able to overcome the new face of fear Bray Wyatt and his former protégé Luke
Harper this time around. Also with Reigns still poised to rocket to the top of
the WWE at some stage soon. I’m hoping 3
/ 4 men in this match will become staples of WWEs main event in the future... I
hate Roman Reigns (JOKE).
I’d imagine that Reigns will be the one to pick up the
win here, I’m also hoping it will be over Harper too and not Wyatt, he has
become a bit of a jobber as of late, feels like he needs to actually win a
couple of matches to try and get him back over as a legitimate threat and not just
a crazy nut case who talks the talk but doesn’t walk the walk.
6. Winner
takes all WWE Champion vs. United States Champion
John Cena (c) vs. Seth Rollins
(c)
Anyone ever seen Alien Vs Predator??? Remember the tag line???
“WHOEVER WINS... WE LOSE”
Well this is exactly what this match is, If Rollins wins
we get our SHIT WWE champion holding both major singles titles in the WWE,
since he has been badly booked with 1 belt, how badly would the booking be with
2 of the fuckers. Also John Cena’s US
open challenge has probably been one of the best booking moves in WWE recent
history for the stalwart of the WWE roster, all ended in a flash by bad
booking.
Then we have John Cena getting yet another WWE title run,
that he doesn’t need, that would make the US title be an afterthought again,
with Cena obviously focusing on the main title rather than his US open
challenge. Plus do we really need another WWE title run with Cena as the champ?
NO! NO! NO!
I’m hoping for a no contest here or a DQ of some kind as
I would really hate to see these championships unified unless they plan to get
rid of the US belt, but highly doubtful.
But as I said, if anyone wins this match, the real losers are us the
fans.
7. Brock
Lesnar with Paul Heyman vs. The Undertaker
Now this match feels a little desperate to me, we don’t
really need this match now do we?
How many times over the last year or so has the
Undertaker had a chance to get some level of payback against Lesnar and now he
decides to come out of hiding to do it, no sorry I don’t buy it. Yeah Lesnar
has been bragging about it but has never really said anything disrespectful
about Undertaker. But this is a big deal
with Undertaker not just featuring in a Wrestlemania match this year and getting
to feature on this PPV. Then of course Lesnar is on show that is a pretty big
deal in itself. However lets face the
facts they needed to keep Lesnar away from the WWE title picture somehow didn’t
they!?
Ok, well this match will end simply with Lesnar picking
up the big win, Undertaker isn’t going to get revenge and the conqueror will
conquer again. Sorry. This match as cool
as it is, does feel a little desperate and forced upon us, it will be a good
match I would imagine, hopefully better than their first encounter back at
Wrestlemania 30.
As always I’ll be hanging with my main man 12VE-Pac over
the Summerslam weekend, so please follow us @bigboss010 and @siteofshite on
twitter with the hashtag #DSCSlam. So I’ll
see you then.
I’m Big Boss, I’m out..... Peace.
