John Cena has been medically cleared and the title for title match between him and Rollins at SummerSlam has been made official, he could be back on Raw on Monday, and debut some new merch...

Taking bets on what the shirt color will be. I'm guessing red.
 
Sorry for the double-post but I just saw this on Facebook. Looks like Cena's new colour is orange!

So the Raw before SummerSlam was pretty good, loved John Cena's promo at the contract signing and Lesnar's homecoming was pretty cool until they had Undertaker show up and take him out like he did at Battleground which was the wrong way to end the show IMO, not much in the way of in ring action, the match between Nikki Bella and Sasha looked promising but it was a bit of a mess, two more matches made for SummerSlam, I've lost count of all the matches now as there is so many, no kick-off show match announced yet..

I've got 10 , not bad as a 4 hour event
 
How are they going to fit it all in?? I know they have got that extra hour but Cena/Rollins and Lesnar/Taker have got to take up at least 40 minutes of that...

IMO two of these 10 fights ( tag team w/Amell and Ziggler-Rusev ) wouldn't last more that 15-20 mins together , divas match sadly could have not enough time to be a good one ( max 10 minutes ) , plus ( propably ) Jon Stewart segment , IC title match and we have about hour off show
 
I wish it wasn't 4 hours. I'll want to watch it or at least fast forward through some but won't have time before the Arsenal Vs Liverpool match. Only have around an hours between getting home and kick off.
 
The only match that has my attention is Kevin Owens vs. Cesaro.

I don't know why but Summerslam this year, feels a lot like filler to me :/
 
The NXT show the night before somehow has 10 matches too!, its that show only two hours though??

Big weekend in Brooklyn coming up, there's NXT Takeover, SummerSlam and Monday Night Raw all coming from the same arena, and all three nights sold out....
 
Now watching Wrestlemania 2000, I don't have the network btw I collect all the dvds. Got every 1999 to 2001 ppv on dvd, all original. I think I may have asked this before but does anybody collect the wwe dvds?

I do but not as hardcore as some people.
 
So like I said before it is a big weekend for the WWE with two big events and Raw coming from Brooklyn, the first of the two event is the NXT Takeover event this Saturday night and here is the card for it

Apollo Crews v Tye Dillinger

NXT Tag Team Championship
Blake and Murphy (c) v The Vaudevillians

Samoa Joe v Baron Corbin

Tyler Breeze v Jushin 'Thunder' Liger

NXT Women's Championship
Sasha Banks (c) v Bayley

NXT Championship-Ladder Match
Finn Balor (c) v Kevin Owens


They will tape three matches at the show and they will be shown on NXT next Wednesday and those matches are an eight man tag team match, Carmella v Eva Marie and a Fatal Four Way Divas match between Becky Lynch, Charlotte, Emma and Dana Brooke, former Indy Wrestler Uhaa Nation makes his debut under the name Apollo Crews...
 
I cant wait, they should have more NXT events the night before the main PPV as it has proved popular so far given both events are sold out, if work permits me on Monday I will watch the NXT event right before SummerSlam on Sunday night so i'll have six hours of Wrestling!

You mean to tell me you're skipping the preshows?! :lol:
 
No preshow has been made for SummerSlam yet, a preshow has been made for Takeover but no match so its just Renee Young and a panel of people talking...
 
So got in from work last night and decided to stay up to watch Takeover which proved to be a good decision as it was a great show with a great crowd and congrats to everyone involved, follow that SummerSlam!

Anyway, here's the card for tonight..

Kevin Owens v Cesaro

Three team Divas tag team match
Team B.A.D v Team PCB v Team Bella

Stardust and King Barrett v Stephen Amell and Neville

Grudge Match
Randy Orton v Sheamus

Tag Team Championship-Fatal Four Way Match
The Prime Time Players (c) v New Day v Lucha Dragons v Los Matadores

Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose v Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper

Intercontinental Championship-Triple Threat Match
Ryback (c) v Big Show v The Miz

Title vs Title-Winner takes all
Seth Rollins (WWE WH Champ) v John Cena (US Champ)

Brock Lesnar v The Undertaker

No idea what's happening to Ziggler v Rusev, but its not on the card as far as I know..

Takeover was a great show. Watched it this morning. Also announced that NXT is coming to the UK!!

7 dates and I'm going to try my hardest to get to one. Haven't managed to get to an event yet but I'd love an NXT one to be my first.
 
Cant watch SummerSlam tonight as I have work in the morning but will watch it when I get home...
 
Don't think I'll watch RAW tonight. Didn't even bother watching Summer Slam

Just seen it, great show with some great matches....however the two main events, even though they were both awesome matches they both had ******** finishes, I don't even know if the false finish in the Taker/Lesnar match was meant to happen or not or they did it to continue the feud, anyway Taker looked good and I loved how he mock laughed at Lesnar, Taker did actually collapse on his way backstage and there are fan videos of it but the general feeling is that he did that to sell, also did Lesnar blade like he did at WM??

As for the other big match, again it was great and maybe match of the night but don't get me started on the finish!!, I mean, a D-List celebrity affecting the outcome of a big title match?!? WTF WWE?!?!?!?

Other highlights were Owens vs Cesaro and the Divas match was good too, the rest was ok or meh but Ziggler/Rusev was a bit crap with a double count out which nobody cared about..
