I would love for faces AND heels to try and take a shot at Lesnar.

Brock is basically Apocalypse and we are entering the Age of Lesnar

My intuition keeps on repeating, what the f*** did I just witness last night back to me since waking up. That was insanity and I loved it! It was a gamechaner and a needed one, hopefully it will get them out of their funk. Having the Raw stage for Summerslam didn't make me happy, that is one thing I absolutely hate from the budget cuts. They need to get back on track and spending again for PPV sets, you know...to make them feel special.
But other than that every match except for Orton/Reingns (but even that had a great final stretch in the final 2 minutes) varied from decent/good/great/spectacular. Easy 9/10 overall from me, especially my expectations heading in and with it being compared to last years (with 2 MOTY candidates). A worthy successor for sure to that one

Fell asleep during Orton vs Reigns. Woke up after Cena vs Lesnar.
I don't like Orton or Reigns.

I'm still pissed that I saw a former world champion sitting at ringside and the WWE no-sold it

So weird seeing Lesnar smiling and out of character after all the promo vids we've seen of him.

WHAT HAPPENED AFTER SUMMERSLAM WENT OFF THE AIR AND MORE by Mike Johnson @ 1:18 AM on 8/18/2014 After Summerslam went off the air, the Los Angeles crowd booed John Cena as he was walked to the back chanting, "Thank you Lesnar" and singing, "Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye" at the former champion. I know that a Cena Heel Turn wont happen
But I hope this is the start of maybe a new CHARACTER for Cena
Get rid of the colored shirts, the Slogans, the Catchphrases. Just have him off TV for awhile, and have him come back an absolute no nonsense destroyer
Because if he comes back the same he'll only get booed further, this seems like the perfect opportunity to do something with a BEYOND Stale character.
It needs to finally get to him and cause him to snap. This is a perfect opportunity, WWE. Turn him and create more interest in the product. Heel Cena can do the dastardly things Brock won't be around to do week after week. Heyman can gloat about how his client was the 1 in 21-1 and the 1 to finally break John Cena.

I love Cena, but letting Brock win was the way to go. It's going to be a bit before Bryan returns, the two of them going at it will be epic.

f*** all of the hullabaloo about him being cheesy, Cena helped make Brock into a legend and also possibly cemented his own last night.
He can come out on Raw tonight smiling, skipping and dressed like Scarlett O' Hara for all I care, I can't help but respect the man.

He's definitely cheesy, and if he does undermine the whole match last night by no selling it, that'd be the dumbest thing possible.
That said, kudos for taking that ass kicking.

I'm sure this was mentioned a lot here during the show but I'm not reading through 185 pages- did anybody else notice lumberjack Damien Sandow actually dressed like a lumberjack? I'm stunned none of the commentators mentioned it, I laughed my head off.
P.S. superb show.

I love each and every Ambrose vs. Rollins match I've ever seen. Someday I'll be longing for the good ol' days of seeing these two go at it.

Summerslam Backstage Pass is on. Not bad so far, I like the Bellas' stuff here, interesting to see the set up from before the show.
