I always thought Summertime by Janis Joplin would be the perfect SummerSlam theme. The slow bluesy gravel of her voice and the lazy days lyrics in contrast with the frenetic fast paced video of ing ring action.

The WWE '13 sim version of Cena v Bryan has Bryan winning by submission. I'd almost class the ability to tap out Cena as a glitch, to be honest.

Soooo erm after last nights Raw I guess
Bryan vs Cena
Punk vs Lesnar
Christian vs Del Rio
RVD vs Orton
Sandow vs Rhodes
Big E and AJ vs Ziggler and Kaitlyn
Mark Henry vs Dean Ambrose
Uso's vs Rollins and Reigns
Could be a brilliant overall card this year
Oh and maybe Bray Wyatt vs Kane???
STACKED!!

Weird how Sheamus has nothing for Summerslam yet. He should either challenge ambrose or tean with Henry and Show against Shield.

I really can't believe how piping hot the card is looking for this. And we still have three weeks of buildup left. Man, I hope things can stay hot like this after SummerSlam.

We usually have a month of residual hype, and then it's into the Fall-slump, but we'll have our yearly uppercard-test feud, so that's something to look forward to.

The fall slumps were only because of the big angles flopping. At least so far, it doesn't appear as much that it will be the case with Bryan vs. Cena.

In fairness, 'Summer of Punk' (all 2, or perhaps, 3 of them) and 'Nexus Invasion', pre-Summerslam, seemed like can't-miss angles, and, well..actually, do I need to continue?

Well I think it's one of those things where we have no choice but to trust that they've learned their lessons. There are definitely moments, especially in the last few years, when WWE showed they do get it. They'll put on a fantastic show, make new guys into stars, or just let the workers do what they do. Nothing is ever going to be perfect or please everyone, and although I do agree that the angles you mentioned lost tons of steam after strong beginnings, I think if everyone is doing their part (including the fans), WWE can really shine.

Now that SD has aired I can finally talk about this now! Card = stacked, not a Del Rio fan at all but Christian brings the absolute best out of him! And I want Orton vs RVD added to the card as well (it is the second[ish maybe, between SS and Rumble for me] biggest ppv of the year, it deserves the best card possible) with 15 min given But back to my main point

I really hope that RVD and Orton somehow get added into Del Rio/Christian to make it a fatal four way.
I'm okay with Christain/Del Rio as it will be a fun match, but I'm not exactly inspired by it.
Plus, Christain/RVD/Orton worked very well together in that triple threat so why not throw them all together and make a fun multi-man for one of the biggest shows WWE put out.

any images of the 'Slam set been released yet? I'd imagine we won't get anything about that until the sunday of the show. It's not a big Mania production.

Just as a measure of hope, they definitely learned their lesson with Nexus and (aside from the McMahon stuff) they haven't added anything to Daniel Bryan vs. John Cena. Not saying that it's a guarantee that WWE will make the right decisions at SummerSlam, but they're certainly putting their best foot forward with all of their angles. Though I will say that this is one of those times where Cena needs to lose for there to be any hope of change.

I like both guys so I don't really care who wins. Though I'll probably be rooting for Cena.
