The belts mean so much in this company, 3 of them are on the pre-show.

Didn't even realise this is the 30th SummerSlam. They haven't made it a big deal at all.

Crikey they're sending these matches out early. Couldn't give a strawberry float the building is partially empty.

I like how gradually they've completely given up differentiating these cruiserweights. The purple lighting, the purple ropes, the custom ring canvas, the LED boards...all gone. And the viewership for 205 Live is in the toilet. It's failed in WWE for the 3rd time since it's inception in 1997.

So the point of Neville losing the championship in the first place was...?

Only reason I can think of why he dropped it in the first place was to move him out of the cruiserweights, but it looks so pointless now :lol:

Lawler seemed genuinely annoyed about that Bobby Heenan jacket.

This is literally The Rock Concert turned into an entire gimmick. It's even the same style of script.

I get the impression WWE are having all these shark cage matches all of a sudden because they're trying to flog their shark cage action figures...

I wonder if Carmella could cash in on the RAW Women's Championship match as a curve ball...

What a horrific set of Money In The Bank winners we had this year.

I'd rather see a new Fashion Peaks episode than this match (again).

I wonder if this is the beginning of the end of Big Titties and the gang.
