Flag match? First Lumberjack goofiness and now FLAGS? Patriotism? FLAGS.
Russo, get out of the work experience kids room, you've done it again!

Most of these matches seem predictable to me (we'll see if that statement holds up in the pick'em topic) but this should still be a great show.

I'm pumped! Just got caught up on WWE, got the network, looking forward to it.
Call me crazy, I want Jericho to beat Wyatt, but I know it won't happen. Putting over the younger talent makes sense, but Jericho isn't dead baby! He still needs an Edge-esque awesome awesome run at the top in recent years.

I love Jericho too but Wyatt needs the win now.

I decided to sim the card and see what 2K14 thinks the results will be.
- Dolph Ziggler beat The Miz with a sleeper hold. - Rusev (as depicted by fellow Camel Clutch enthusiast Scott Steiner) beat Jack Swagger when he just got bored and left allowing him to climb the ladder pole. - Randy Orton made Roman Reigns submit to a chinlock. - Paige (as depicted by Aksana) pinned AJ Lee with a spinebuster. - Stephanie McMahon pinned Brie Bella with the Pedigree. This was completely clean. - Seth Rollins beat Dean Ambrose with that flippy neckbreaker thing of his. - Bray Wyatt (actually have a CAW of him) pinned Chris Jericho with a flying crossbody. - Brock Lesnar defeated John Cena with the triple powerbombs. Cena repeatedly had the match won only for Heyman to distract the ref.

- Randy Orton made Roman Reigns submit to a chinlock. Oh man, if Orton's chinlocks were match enders he'd be 100x more exciting, because there would be an extra 100x in each match where it could possibly end.

Will Ryback be appearing at all? It seems weird that he's never been on SummerSlam under that name.

Is this a good time to once again insert the bit of trivia that Roddy Piper's never wrestled at SummerSlam either? I think it is! I'd be all for Roddy vs Ryback, but I like Piper too damn much.

Reigns will come out in the middle of the match & join Ambrose & Rollins in triple powerbombing him again, before they go back to fighting & Reigns just leaves.

They seriously need to do this with ever PPV. Mean Gene hasn't lost a step. Vince's intro, the old school SummerSlam music, Fink, I loved it.

Eh, screw it, I'll go ahead and watch this show I think. Been in the mood for old stuff so I renewed my Network subscription today, I don't think the card looks any good (to be fair, maybe the build's been good, I wouldn't know, though comments around here suggest not) but after missing Cena / Lesnar I because I was really tired and didn't figure I'd miss much, I should at least see the sequel live.

Does anyone else feel that the hype for this has been, I don't want to say lazy, but uninspired? Don't get me wrong the card looks decent and I shall be watching for sure. It could turn out to be a really good one (not as good as last years, but of course that was my and many others WWE PPV of the year...)
I just wouldn't have minded a bit more effort put into Brock/Cena in a way, a few more face to face interactions etc. I am looking forward to Rollins/Ambrose no matter what the stipulation is, Wyatt/Jericho and a couple of others but I just feel it had the potential to be so much more this year and they are relying on the PPV/ Cena vs Brock both on name alone to sell it.
I don't know....
