Thought this was a cool article. WWE.com takes a look back at the history between Cena and Bryan from their Velocity match to last Monday night. Really interesting read. Apologies if it has already been posted but I had a look around and couldn't see it anywhere. The history of John Cena and Daniel BryanAmazing!!!

I hope they don't make Cena an Underdog.
Honestly nobody believes bryan wins
I kind of hope he wins via cool rollup and not submission

I think SummerSlam has the makings of a classic this year. Between Cena/Bryan, Lesnar/Punk, World'sStrongestSamoans/Shield, and others to be announced, this could be the best SummerSlam in years. And that includes a great 2011 PPV!

I wish they would have used Fight by Jim Johnston again for the Summerslam theme, after originally using it for SS02. It fits the intensity of the matches perfectly this year, especially Punk/Lesnar which would be great to play in the final minute of their video package. Fight by Jim JohnstonAnd if I was WWE I would put aside money to buy the rights for The Ecstasy of Gold by Ennio Morricone (both for the ppv/dvd) and use it for the Cena/Bryan video package promo. When I hear it I can imagine clips of both Bryan and Cena going back all the way to their Velocity match, Nexus vs WWE, sound bytes showing Bryan's obsession with being WWE Champion (his Ecstasy of/for Gold) mixed in and just the two beating the f*** out of people in archive footage. I think PPV themes should be as epic as possible, especially for the big 5 (I now count MITB as one of the big one's) and the two I have mentioned above certainly fit the criteria. Although its a nice little tune I don't get the same feeling with this years theme, they have chosen much better one's in the past.

I want WHC Scramble Match Del Rio vs RVD vs Sheamus vs Christian vs Big Show Same here. With no clear-cut contender yet, this could be an easy way to get some people on the card, and stretch out a one-on-one match for the title to Night Of Champions with whoever Del Rio screws over late in the scramble.

I want WHC Scramble Match Del Rio vs RVD vs Sheamus vs Christian vs Big Show Sounds like a plan. Pity the WWE doesn't share our enthusiasm for scramble matches.

I think Del Rio vs Rhodes would be an interesting WHC match. Rhodes earns the title shot on Smackdown and they could hype the possibility of Rhodes/Sandow being a future World Title match. Del Rio retains and Rhodes and Sandow blow off their feud at the next PPV.

I'd like if they'd just do a massive scramble or whatnot for the WHC, considering there's so many directionless acts, especially the champ. If you plop 6-7 guys in there, you could jumpstart a couple of feuds leading into Autumn/Winter.

I wouldn't mind a fatal four way between RVD, ADR, Christian and Cesaro.

Definitely seems like we're going to see Del Rio defending in a multi-man match at SummerSlam. I could see either a Fatal 4-Way with Christian, RVD and Orton or a Scramble with Sheamus added or even a Six-Pack Challenge with Big Show as well.

ADR starts being stalked by a masked wrestler. It's hinted that it's someone from his pre-WWE days in Mexico. ADR finally agrees to a Belt vs Mask match. He loses. The next night he jumps The Masked Man and when he rips off the mask, It's Ricardo. OK, I can dream.

Seems like Christian is definitely one of Del Rio's challengers. Possibly Orton. I don't see anything else for Randy unless him and Sheamus go one on one. So it looks like ADR, Christian, Orton and after tonight possibly RVD. No matter what though. Del Rio is retaining. He's coming home in September with the World Heavyweight Championship.

The Summerslam theme is starting to annoy me now, I wish they would go with the rock that they used to go with in the 2000's for PPV themes, or (as I said earlier) they should have brought back the great Fight by Jim Johnston 11 years later after its original use.

I actually like when WWE uses songs that are out of the box for PPVs like WrestleMania and SummerSlam. I think they should always have two themes for those PPVs, one rock song for hyping feuds and one for promoting the PPV in general.
