SummerSlam Night 1 — #38

Taking place in New Jersey. Met Life Stadium

Cole and Wade are taking care of the announcer’s desk, with Alicia Taylor handling ring announcing duties.

*MATCH 1 — Roman and Jey find themselves in an electrifying tag team showdown against Braun Breakker and Bronson Reed, with the ever-watchful Paul Heyman hovering at ringside. Clutching Roman’s shoes, Paul’s presence adds an air of intrigue to the match. The atmosphere at MetLife Stadium is electric, with cheers and shouts echoing as fans struggle to catch a glimpse of Jey weaving through the crowd. A playful high five is exchanged with a cameraman, capturing the camaraderie amidst the chaos. As soon as the bell rings, the match spirals into pandemonium. Roman attempts a high-flying maneuver that looks daring, and for a moment, it seems like it could end in disaster, but fortunately, he sticks the landing. In a heart-stopping moment, Roman instinctively pushes Jey out of harm’s way, absorbing a spear from Braun that echoes throughout the arena. The match unfolds at a wild and frantic pace, displaying raw intensity and fierce competition. Ultimately, it is Jey and Roman who emerge victorious, standing tall amid the cheers and excitement of the crowd, despite the chaos that preceded their win.

*MATCH 2 — The first title defence of the night, Roxanne Perez/Raquel Rodriguez putting the titles on the line against Charlotte/Alexa Bliss. I expect these titles will change hands tonight. Lexi and Charlotte seem better settled, along with the experience, as both have held the tag title. (I love the fact they are having some giggles along the way in this) This has been a good match, not too much funny business, Alexa/Charlotte have both had their moments. That was great, friendly fire could have gone wrong, but Alexa takes out Roxy, Charlotte takes out Raquel, with Lexie the legal star for the win.

*MATCH 3 — Sami Zayn is facing Karron Kross in singles action, but Scarlet is in Karron’s corner. This is one of those matches where anything can happen. Scarlet pulled out the steel pipe. This has been an OK match, nothing special. Scarlet gave Sami the pipe, and he threw it out of the ring. Sami finished off Karron, getting the win. Sami looked at Karron/Scarlet, telling them that it’s over.

Cole is narrating a salute to Hulk Hogan, especially what he did for Summer Slam.

*Match 4 — Tiffany Stratton defending her SmackDown title against Jade Cargill. This match feels rushed in a way. The girls have not been given time to tell the story. Jade held her own, but I don’t think she’s just quite ready for the singles title just yet. Tiff is 14 – 0 in 2025.

*MATCH 5 — Randy Orton/Jelly Roll facing Logan Paul/Drew McIntyre in a tag match. As much as I want Randy/Jelly to win, I have a feeling it will be Paul/Drew getting the win. (I will give Logan the credit that he is good, but that is it)I have the match muted. Paul is nothing but a bully, along with Drew. I was never really a fan of Drew to start with. (Jelly has lost 230 pounds)This could have been a decent match, but they just let Drew/Logan dominate the match. Doing whatever to take Randy/Jelly out of the match for good. Now it’s a two-on-one match with JellyRoll on his way to medical.

*MATCH 6 — Main Event time with Gunther defending the Men’s World Heavyweight title against CM Punk. This could be a good match if they are given the time to let things develop. Gunther is trying his best to take Punk out, making sure he keeps the belt. Things have started to see-saw between, who have always gotten too full of themselves. Just as CM gets a rally going, Gunther seems to almost always shut him down. I have no clue how CM is finding ways to stay in this match, but he is. Gunther is wondering what he has to do to finish this match. Gunther started to celebrate, but out of nowhere, Punk pushed him off the announce table. Never seen Gunther busted open like he has been. It took 2 GTS, CM Punk was able to pin Gunther for the win, which lasted all of 10 minutes as Seth Rollins’ Music hit. The knee injury was a setup to throw everyone off. With a well-placed Stomp, Seth is now the World Heavyweight Champion.
