SummerSlam is just a few days away, who will be watching?
SummerSlam is a PPV I order every year, along with Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania.
The event should be pretty good. It has a solid undercard with Miz-Rey and the tag title match. Jericho-Dolph could steal te show if given time, and the triple threat and Lesnar-HHH should deliver.
What do you guys think?

Not sure Lesnar v HHH will be better than the Cena/Lesnar match which was about as brutal as WWE gets these days. Still its definitely the one match I have even slight interest in.
I can understand business reasons for being PG but its hard to be excited about the current product. Especially when the Undertaker's appearances are so rare. Cena seems to be the main target of those who are anti-PG (and Linda McMahon) but Mysterio is far worse as a goody 2 shoes kids character. Still before I started watching ( since September 97) aside from Undertaker my favourite character on one of the old videogames was probably Doink LOL. Wasn't expect it to be like it was (I had envisioned something like what early to mid 90's WWE was so the early DX stuff definitely surprised me and in a good way) but Raw Is War from 97-01 is the best Tv show I've ever seen. Never watched WCW and I didn't even know who Paul Heyman was until he joined JR on commentary. Same with the likes of Heenan and Mean Gene (he was first to come out before the gimmick battle royal at Mania 01 and I thought he was one of the entrants LOL)
When WWE was at its best I had no idea what went on beyond watching Raw and later Smackdown every week. I wasn't that "smart" to the business at all. Other than obvious stuff like guessing Heat was filmed before Smackdown (it was shown in UK from 2000 and it had the smackdown stage at that time) and Metal was before Raw.
By the time I started visiting wrestling sites the product was on a downhill slide so it didn't really spoil that much for me. In other ways it was good finding out so much new information.
One of the worst things right now is Lawler never something I thought I would say. The Neal Steal character's sucking up and ass kissing is actually based on what Lawler used to be only taken to a higher level. Now he just sounds almost lifeless compared to what he was before.
Best thing WWE related right now is AW's tweets on his firing LOL.
