The 2nd/3rd biggest show of the year is this Sunday.  Thankfully, we don't have HHH trying to steal the spotlight on this year's show although we do have the McMahon's running all over WWE TV for no logical reason other than wanting to stay in the spotlight.  They aren't drawing ratings.  They aren't building to a match (in the foreseeable future).  They have no direction whatsoever in what they're doing on television.  And unfortunately, they're not going away as this storyline is scheduled to run through WrestleMania XXX.

As for what we do have... we have the awesome build for CM Punk and Brock Lesnar, the BEST vs the BEAST.  There's nothing STUPID about that.  Punk and Heyman have done a lot of great mic work back and forth, with Paul turning on his best friend Punk, and Brock has come in and completely wrecked house making him look like the unstoppable monster that he should be booked as.  Punk got a little bit of offense on Brock last week, but he still ended up bloody on the outside.  We'll see if Punk gets any offense in tonight on Lesnar.  The result of this match is really going to be interesting on Sunday.

The other main event of the show is John Cena defending his WWE Title against Daniel Bryan.  These two really haven't had any major confrontations thus far outside of some minor teased dissension.  Last week Bryan did refer to Cena as a sports entertainer and he was a pro wrestler.  And Cena said it was disrespectful of Bryan to say he would wrestle anywhere other than WWE.  Cena definitely came off as the subtle heel last week, and that's the way to book this because we know what the crowd response will be in LA for these two.

The real question is, which of these matches will be the actual main event of Summerslam?

In addition to the two main events, we have:

• Alberto Del Rio defending the World Title against Christian
• Dolph Ziggler and Kaitlyn v Big E and aj lee
• Cody Rhodes v Damien Sandow for the World Title Money in the Bank Briefcase
• Kane v Bray Wyatt in a Ring of Fire (Inferno) Match

That leaves The Shield, Randy Orton, RVD, Mark Henry among the big names without matches for the show.  My guess is that RVD gets added to the ADR/Christian match.  And with Orton teasing cashing in Money in the Bank, I would guess they hold him off the show.  I really have no idea what they have planned for The Shield.  The Big Show did return at a house show last night, so the proposed Shield vs Big Show and Mark Henry match may be on.

Everyone was so happy Trips was out of the Summer Slam picture... and the Monday before he's stuffed back down our throats.

 

[Mcflyy]

This all makes it that much clearer that Vince/Maddox are gonna screw D.Bry over.

 

[rrlegend]

Man, Brad Maddox is about to catch NUCLEAR heat at screwing over Bryan at Summerslam

x-pac heat 

 

[Peep Game]

Oh, HHH inserting himself, I was looking forward to that instead of a new guy like Maddox catching heat

[rusty shackelford]

Triple H is a storyline rapist, inserting himself wherever he pleases with no regards for
the wants of the fans or their dignity. Every time he comes on I feel like I need a rape kit.

Don't hate me guys, but I'm terribly underwhelmed by the Wyatt Family.

I'll wait until Bray actually has his match before I fully judge them.
