 This is a joke right? Never have I seen something so juvenile and less intimidating for a current WWE pay per view than this. Why does it look so innocent, happy and fun? Sheesh. EDIT: Should have put this in the SummmerSlam 2013 thread, apologies. |

Kane looks a bit out of place here. I'd take him out and use someone who could more accurately convey "fun", like RVD, or even someone who won't be on the card like Alicia, Maddox, Kofi, Bourne, Miz, Riley, Ryder, or even Bo Dallas.

I'm more concerned about Bryan, I mean...I think he looks naked riding that.
Also, did Orton and Punk morph together?

It's hyped as the "Biggest Party of the Summer", so I see no issue with a poster conveying that.

I'm more offended by the horrible photoshop job. I mean they didn't even try to get AJ and Dolph to look like they are on a roller coaster

I mean they didn't even try to get AJ and Dolph to look like they are on a roller coaster AJ looks like she just saw a cute top in the window of a boutique. Ziggler looks like he's taking the most awesome dump in human existence. And based on the storylines, why would Dolph sit next to AJ on a roller coaster? |

The photoshop does suck hard, but WWE really needs more posters that aren't just generic shots of the superstars growling at the camera.
It doesn't have to look like Strawberry Shortcake, but I'd like more stuff along the lines of the New Years Revolution one with DX as the founding fathers, Orton and the dove for No Mercy, or the Royal Rumble poster with the McMahons as Roman emperors ("You screwed Breticus"). Something that indicates it's going to be an exciting show, but not necessarily a super serial one.

Awesome poster, I'm really liking the different approach.

Summerslam ads have often been lighter and sillier to promote the party aspect of it instead of the wrestling. But this poster and the commercial are dull and out of touch. This is just Superstars on a roller coaster. It must have had literally one second of thought behind it. The commercial is even worse. The part where the Prime Time Players eat corn to the sound of typewriters is a joke that's about one hundred years old. Does anyone under the age of 25 even know what a typewriter sounds like?
To be fair the Hell No campfire bit was ok but even that was poorly realized.

I love Kane's expression.
