***WWE SummerFest 2024 8/3 7 pm ET***
Punk v Drew has been the single best feud in years and really hoping for some insane triple turn leading to Drew v Punk (c) at WM
With Drew/Punk, the Judgment Day eventual split, and waiting for Roman's return, there's some good **** going on now.
May be the first one I watch live since the Rumble where Sami turned on Roman. Curious to see if Dom turns on Rhea and/or JD turn on Priest, costing him the belt. I don't expect to see Roman tonight, but maybe Jimmy Uso or Heyman cost Solo?
I’d be a little surprised if Roman comes back tonight. Especially considering cody isn’t main eventing it seems too early and that all it does is upstage him
I can see the usos coming at solo and setting up that feud before roman v solo
So Logan Paul has defended the US title twice in 273 days, but they had to strip Rhea because she was going to be out three months.
I haven't watched WWE for over a year, but I randomly found out summerslam is tonight so I figured I'd sign up again and see what's going on.
I decided I wasn't going to give WWE my money or attention until vince was out for good, but since I haven't paid any attention for the past year or so (except for following it through 2+2-threads), I'm just not going to check if that's the case and assume it is.
So hoping the pre-show will catch me up somewhat on the story lines.
I've never heard of Bron Breakker but at least the rest of the line-up are familiar names.
The great thing about logan paul is that I don't have to rely on story lines building him up as a villain to hate him. **** that guy and his prime can.
To the ‘haven’t watched WWE’ crowd I will say you’re missing out. The product has been at its best since the attitude era if we’re being honest
Though it’ll never stop tilting me that they censor the crowd chanting ‘holy ****’ or ‘you ****ed up’
The censoring is mostly a FOX thing and I think they might be kinda pissed off that WWE is leaving them and purposely screw the show in the editing.
I have seen good things about the product in the threads recently which is partly why I decided to resub (though it's mainly because I'm sitting here with nothing better to do this evening).
I've missed wwe though, so looking forward to catching up.
I miss Alexa Bliss even more though... is she still around?
She had a baby Bliss. Should be returning soon, but not tonight.
Everything here has had a strong build and should be worth seeing, other than Bayley/Jax. And even there, we might get a cash in.
Wife so pissed at me for putting on summerfest
I apologize for nothing

I guess I could watch late on Hulu, but I just kind of don't subscribe to a live TV service unless it's football season.
I'm a bit dubious that it can win me back, but hopefully they put on a killer show tonight that causes me to want to tune in a bit more. Following WM with a Raw that started with that super awkward Cody/Rocky promo segment was not ideal for continuing the momentum.
The Cody rock segment was the stupidest **** I’ve ever seen, I’ll give you that
And we start a wrestling show with two songs from Crusher Blackwell.
Well this is the first time I've seen Dom with an Eddy mustache.
I hate that I feel like Dom has to turn on Rhea here.
So Rhea is still awesome - happy some things do not change.
We’re trying to have a kid. Rhea helps. Wife doesn’t need to know that
Rhea has always looked good, but this is another level.
