Not sure I'll be around for the whole show, kind of depends on whether the Mariners decide to actually be competitive with the Astros for once, but I'll watch what I can. It's SummerSlam night.

I know WWE is awful in general, but I can’t imagine being a pro wrestling fan and wanting to watch a random late July baseball game over the first WWE PPV in non-Vince era.

But I say that as someone that would never ever ever eh-eh-ever (Jericho voice) watch a baseball game on tv that’s not the playoffs.

There’s nothing magical happening tonight. I’m optimistic about HHH, but I don’t think he’s supernatural and can turn a bad company into a good company in just a week. I view this show as more of a baseline measurement to compare the future with later.

But like I said, I intend to watch as much of it as the moment seems to call for.

It seems that this ppv was put together by Vince so I'd actually call the next ppv the first without Vince.

I'm always in for a Brock ppv

I’m going into it assuming it’ll be mediocre, but I’m in anyway.

Good grief, they're starting with this one? They had the best match at WrestleMania. Guess I'll need to give this my attention right now.

Becky Lynch looks like Heatman from Mega Man 2

Yeah I can't remember another outdoors SummerSlam since Wembley in 1992.

Had stream problems late in that match, but what I saw was really good.

Yeah, let's skip the hugs unless that means Becky is going face again.

Let's have a Nexus-style beatdown.

Alright, cool post-match. Event is off to a good start.

Ciampa is aligned with Miz somehow? That’s weird and makes no sense.

I don't know that I've ever actually seen someone score a pinfall after hitting the opponent with the opponent's own finisher (assuming the two wrestlers didn't share a finisher).

HHH, it’s never too soon to undo these Vince first name removals.

So Theory is going to have a failed cash in after Reigns beats Lesnar huh?

Honestly, this is the only result that would make that pre-match briefcase attack okay given that Lashley went over. If HHH either doesn't like Theory or wants to repackage him (with two names) then fine. Otherwise they're just weakening Theory for no apparent reason.

WWE is usually good about not humoring the crappy relatives of legendary wrestlers for all that long.

This Dominik Mysterio thing sure seems to be going on for a long time.

No disqualification match, but only one legal man in the ring…

That does not make sense.

They always enforce rope breaks in no DQ also. They either don't notice their own obvious plot hole or (more likely) they count on most of the crowd not to.

In the flashback sequence showing last Monday Raw or whatever, was Rhea wearing an Eddie Guerrero “who’s your papi?” shirt?

Also, I know there’s spelling controversy on the spelling of Eddy; I can never remember which is preferred.

I just picture a Scott Hall type character looking at the ref and smiling and saying “…or what?”

Dammit, Reigns-Lesnar is Last Man Standing? Please do away with that match stipulation forever and ever.
