Though I hate the fact that it isn't Henry/Orton at Summerslam (And I mean hate it), I'm not too bothered by Orton/Cena. They haven't been in a one-on-one feud since 2007. Also, it beats another HHH/Orton match.
Now that I've got that out of the way. WHY NOT MARK HENRY?!?

I personally prefer Orton / Cena. Main reason? Cena actually has a shot at, you know, winning - and hopefully he does.

After last night it loks like DX vs. Legacy is bound to happen.
Also like to see:
Kofi Kingston vs. Evan Bourne (given at least 10 minutes) Christian vs. Shelton Benjamin Kane vs. Khali Chris Masters vs. MVP Jeff Hardy vs. CM Punk (loser leaves WWE TLC Match) Cryme Tyme vs. Hart Dynasty Big Show and Chris Jericho vs. Shaq and Mark Henry Rey Mysterio vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. John Morrison vs. R-Truth vs. Finlay - IC Title Scramble Match

Not sure about most of the most of the mid card, except DX vs. Legacy looks like a lock. I predict that the top 2 Smackdown matches will be:
Jeff vs. Punk Loser leaves WWE Ladder Match Mysterio vs. Morrison vs. Ziggler for the IC Title
Ladder works best for the WHC match because not only do you have Jeff's history with ladders, but Punk is the only 2 time MITB winner. And it was winning that match that enabled Punk to take the title off Jeff at Extreme Rules, where Jeff had just beaten Edge in... a ladder match. So the storyline started with a ladder match, and ends with a ladder match.
I guess when the phone calls went out to Shawn he felt he was only ready to do a tag match if he was going to come back earlier than he originally planned.

Punk/Hardy in a ladder match for the World Championship would be awesome. I'd order SS for that very match right there. Good call.
Dx vs. Orton/Rhodes/DiBiase would make for great main event match too.
When exactly is Batista returning? Cena vs. Batista II would be another strong match up.

Batista doesnt return until November, and its already going to be Cena vs Orton for the WWE title

I, too, am not bothered by Orton/Cena. At least it's not HHH.
A DX reunion would be nice too. If they want Summerslam to be a big deal again, a DX reunion is a good way to go.

I am PRAYING that the WWE take this route with the Triple H/Priceless feud;
Have Triple H LOSE to Rhodes/DiBiase, (yes, you read that right, LOSE, as in, NOT WIN, a HANDICAP match of all things) and then announce that HBK is coming back for Summerslam. ANNOUNCE it. As in, Shawn doesn't even show up on tv until Summerslam itself. It adds interest and something to look forward to at the PPV, and it would increase buy rates.
Of course, I fully expect Triple H to beat Priceless next week, only to succumb to a post match beatdown where HBK returns and makes the save.

See, I think Legacy will suddenly turn competent and either beat Trips or get themselves DQed in order to properly beat him down, and then the next week Michaels will return with the assist. Mostly since I see this being a total rehash of the Spirit Squad feud.

Looks like it is shaping up to be another boring pay per view.

No look HHH clearly needs to win, then Legacy can jump him the next week, and then HBK can come out of save him

How would Trips winning make sense? He has to lose or at the very least get beaten down next week so that they can at least pretend that Legacy's a threat. If he can beat the two of them by himself next week, why the hell would D-X even be needed?

Definitely an old one, since it has Edge and Taker on it.

Can somebody take some of these stars and construct a Super Driver-esque video out of them? It'd be great.

Okay, so... What was the point of changing the images for Trips and Cena? And randomly moving MVP, Shawn Michaels, and Triple H for no apparent reason?
Well, okay, I can see why for Trips - to put him under Cena, so the two of them have the center of the poster. That one I can justify by his place on the card, but still, what's with MVP and Shawn Michaels?
