You know what would have been better? Taker winning decisively wouldn't have pissed me off as much as that stupid ending. Even with shady ending we have people calling for Taker's head, i can only imagine the implosion had he won clean.

...I liked that Brock/Taker match a lot personally. Screwy shit is fine once in a while. It was awkward but it got the story across and I really liked the action.

I wonder if they botched the camera angle? Probably not. If the viewer at home immediately knew what happened, that'd make Brock look like kind of a chump. Saving it for after puts the heat on Undertaker.

Lesnar mark here who wants to see Bork win every match. You know what? I ain't even mad, this is quite an interesting storyline with Taker. Brock still looks strong though Taker is clearly his toughest opponent. Brock needs to beat Taker now.
Good match too
Enjoyed the whole show

help me out here what was awful about this show?
Tag title match Cena/Rollins Divas Owens/Cesaro Lesnar/Taker
were all very entertaining. Everything else was adequate at the very least. Solid show. Not a classic but worth my time in terms of viewing. As a far as the finish goes its a good medium imo. Lesnar still looks strong, Sets up a major blowoff match (Hoping for Survivior series marking Taker's 25th anniversary and not mania 32) Only knack is this heel Taker. Nobody wants to boo this man, even the commentators are kinda giving Taker a pass.

that's a good question who's the booker in WWE now? Jimmy Jacobs?(WHAT? He gets credit for the good stuff)

I hate stupid endings.

Someone on Twitter said this and I think this is a big reason why the show was so bad:
The biggest stories coming out of SummerSlam is the heel turn of a celebrity guest host and two part-timers.

Seth Rollins admitting the match sucked so much he couldn't watch it again. He did? Just said he couldn't even watch it again. Obviously implying it was epic but I'm just kidding around.

At the Summerslam viewing party in the great beyond, Dusty Rhodes looked over at Roddy Piper and exclaimed, "Maybe cool it with the Dusty finishes tonight, if you weeeel".

I also want a head count of people who were mad sting lost, happy Liger won and happy Taker won. One is too many Two outta three ain't bad. On the internet, it's the worst!

Saving it for after puts the heat on Undertaker. Agreed. It was like that murder mystery recap where they show something from a slightly different angle to reveal what really happened. Undertaker had a cord pull the gun behind a fireplace after he fired it...and it was amazing.

...Hell of a point here, guys. Referee was out at that moment. They are seemingly spinning it that he saw Taker tap and saw the referee raise his hand. The ref was doing it to count Brock's shoulder, but they felt he was signaling for the bell.

I'm sorry, the show was bad? I watched the show without this thread and I can't fathom what was bad about it? The matches were good, Cena isn't wwe champ, Owens won a good match, Brock taker was a good match till the end, divas was fine, tag matches were both fun.

Personally, I thought the show was... Okay. It wasn't great, it's not anything I'm going to remember or even really want to watch again, but my biggest disappointment is my headphones gave me a splitting headache.
