Lookingthroughaglass is a jewel in the rough
Default WWE SummerSlam

Anyone here going to watch WWE's SummerSlam. Well to anyone who is knowledegable about the wrestling industry. I want to hear your thoughts on this event. it is obvious that WWE's needs Hogan to sell this Pay Per View, but the question is can Hogan get last years buy rate or more. Last years SummerSlam had one of the biggest buy rates in years for WWE and that was only because of HBK vs. Hogan.

So now this year they have Orton vs. Hogan. That does not have the same appeal as the HBK vs. Hogan. It will sell, but the question, how much will it. The rest of the card looks like this

Cena vs. Edge for the WWE Title
Batista vs. King Booker for the Heavy Weight Title
RVD vs. Big Show for the ECW Title
Rey vs. Chavo
DX vs. Vince and Shane.

All in all it seems like a pretty solid card. Anyway I can't wait for SummerSlam. Bye for now.

The Cena and Batista matches'll be good, well worth watching
Have they built up a storyline between Rey and Chavo with Eddie dying? Just wondering, if they have that could be good too...

Chavo cost Rey the title last night at Great American Bash, so the next few weeks will be the build up for the match

Cena will take the title, but it's hard to take to "kick someones ass" with 5 moves ...

I have forums for this, in case you guys care. wrestlinginferno.com ...

What are you implying that Cena does not have enough moves?

Cena's best move is when he bends over and lets Vince fu** in his ass. Cena does not deserve the title. I think that Edge should retain the title at SummerSlam, then go on to fued with Triple H. However; I doubt that will happen as Triple H nixed the idea. He wants to fued with Orton first. So I say look for Cena and Edge to fued for a few more months.

I also forgot to add

Ric Flair vs. Foley to SummerSlam. I hope Flair knocks the rest of Foley's teeth down his throat.

Everybody wants to hate on Cena. I don't get it, I have always thought Cena was one of the best since his introduction.

I think a lot of it is WWE. They actually dictate movesets sometimes. They won't allow certain moves, and even won't allow certain people to do more than a few moves (Cena.)

Besides that fact, Cena is a white meat babyface and fans haven't liked that since the 80's. They have grown to like the anti-hero, Austin, Rock, DX, etc. Cena is a straight laced "eat your vitamins" kind of guy. (Granted, it's only a persona, but you get my point.)

If they let him be the "Prototype" character he was in OVW, he'd be fine.

Exactly since it is "entertainment" they are pretty much told what they are supposed to do so they can't just while out and do anything they want.

He will win, but he does need more moves. He has punch, tackle, sidewalk slam and his 3 finishers.

I guess I would agree. He needs some air moves.

Cena will never do "air moves". He's too big of a guy to do that. That's reserved for guys like Angle, Michaels, etc. Ever see Triple H do a moonsault? No, didn't think so. It just wouldn't look right, even if it were possible. (Big Show knows how to do it but doesn't -- obviously for a reason.)
