Goldberg beats Dolph Ziggler. After the match, Ziggler mocks Goldberg's strength and tells him he does not have the strength to fight him man-to-man. Goldberg gets back in the ring and hits Ziggler with another Spear.

Sunday, August 20, 2017

SummerSlam 2017 - The LIVE Results



When asked by Kayla Braxton about not successfully cashing in the Money In The Bank Contract last week, Baron Corbin blames it all on John Cena. Tonight, he will hurt Cena horribly, saying that there are consequences for sticking one's nose where it doesn't belong, especially with people like him.

In an interview by Kayla Braxton, SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon insists that he will call the United States Championship match right down the middle. As long as he is only accidentally touched, there will be no problem, but if either man hits him on purpose, he will hit back.

The Miztourage (The Miz, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel) beat Jason Jordan and The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) following a hot tag from The Miz followed by a Skull Crushing Finale to Jason Jordan.

Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins are in the Social Media Lounge. Seth and Dean say they don't need a tag team name, as everyone will call them "champs" after tonight. Seth does, anyway. Dean says he has a carefully sorted list full of names. Seth says it will be electric in the arena tonight. Dean says he is feeling 100% confident.

Jinder says he fights for the hope of 1.3 billion Indians, and that he will topple Nakamura tonight.

No Mercy is live Sunday, September 24th!

Before the next match, Enzo Amore says Big Cass is a bad boy, but says it was Brooklyn, New York's own Lil' Kim who said that money, power and respect is what you need in life. The only time he gets all three of these things is when the microphone is in his hands, and says the difference between him and everyone else is that he has played the cards he was dealt, but he had the balls to tattoo a microphone on it. He says everyone's better off if he was locked up on Riker's Island instead of the shark cage. He also says that Big Cass should be glad this is a shark cage and not a shark tank. He also says he would put his worst day on the microphone against Big Cass's best day in the ring, but cannot hold it against him as he is seven feet tall. He says that is a hell of a set of cards to be dealt, but says there is no heart behind them. As he continues to speak, Big Cass shows up, and Enzo Amore is locked in the shark cage.

Big Cass beats Big Show. Near the end of the match, Enzo Amore takes off his clothes, oils himself off, puts some gloves on and slithers out of the cage from between the bars.

My predictions for SummerSlam 2017

Roman Reigns vs. Samoa Joe
vs. Braun Strowman vs. Brock Lesnar (c)

for the WWE Universal Championship

Well, it had to happen, didn't it? We have three strong, angry and deadly guys gunning for the Universal title all at once...so let's put them all against Brock Lesnar, who is also strong, angry and deadly! That'll work! Yeah, this won't be a five-star match. This will be a war.

My prediction: Roman Reigns is probably taking the Universal Title.

Natalya vs. Naomi (c)

for the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship

Natalya has earned herself a shot at the Blue Brand's women's title...and had made this a war about tradition, saying that Naomi has absolutely no respect for it. Naomi, in the meantime, had placed a piece of herself in the SmackDown Women's title, and plans to blaze her own path as a champion. But she'll have to get past Natalya...and maybe even Carmella, who still has the Money In The Bank Contract...

My prediction: Naomi will probably retain.

Will Carmella cash in? Probably. If she does, she will take the title.

Sasha Banks vs. Alexa Bliss (c)

for the WWE Raw Women's Championship

This was supposed to be Bayley vs. Alexa Bliss for the title, but Bayley injured her shoulder during a match with Nia Jax. This led to two Women's Triple Threat Matches, with the winners of both facing each other one-on-one to become the new #1 contender. This led to an amazing match between Sasha Banks and Nia Jax where Sasha got the win with the Banks Statement. The only question now is...can she win it again?

My prediction: Alexa Bliss will probably retain.

Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Jinder Mahal (c)

for the WWE Championship

Well, that didn't take long! "The King of Strong Style" already has a shot at the WWE Championship after being on the main roster only a few months. Jinder Mahal, however, will be his toughest opponent yet, and he had some fierce competition before that in the form of John Cena just to get here. Who is going to win this championship match of international proportions?

My prediction: Jinder Mahal will probably retain.

Neville vs. Akira Tozawa (c)

for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship

Now that Austin Aries is no longer challenging for the Cruiserweight Championship despite having four chances to get it (and no longer working in WWE, for that matter), Tozawa ended up being the recipient of a grand-prize winning entry into the "beat Neville for the belt with the purple strap" sweepstakes. On the Raw before SummerSlam, however, he and Neville had a match for the Cruiserweight title...and Tozawa won. Now there is a rematch at SummerSlam...

My prediction: Akira Tozawa will retain.

Kevin Owens vs. AJ Styles (c)

for the WWE United States Championship; SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon is the special guest referee

The United States title has had "Hot Potato" played with it for a little while as of late...but when AJ Styles took the United States title back from Kevin Owens to become a two-time United States Champion, Owens had only one of his shoulders down. Not surprisingly, Owens has a rematch for the title because of that, and now we have these two going at it for the United States title again. Also, at the request of Kevin Owens, there is a special guest referee...and it's Shane McMahon! However, Shane has been less than unbiased as a ref in years past, especially in the Attitude Era, and Styles does not trust Shane. Shane has made it clear to him that he will call the match at SummerSlam down the middle, but if Styles lays a hand on him again, it will get physical. Only time will tell...

My prediction: Styles might retain.

The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) vs. The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) (c)

for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships

Yep, we're having the rematch for these titles at SummerSlam.

My prediction: The New Day will retain.

Randy Orton vs. Rusev

Here's a match we've never ever had before...and it's been three years since Rusev debuted on the main roster. Rusev wanted an opponent...now he's got one. This might be fun...

My prediction: Randy Orton will probably win this one.

Big Show vs. Big Cass

with Enzo Amore in a shark cage suspended above the ring

The feud between Big Show - who has been on the side of Enzo - and Big Cass has come to a head. These two will square off one more time, but this time, Enzo is in a shark cage in order to ensure a definite winner. (Of course, Enzo might drop something from above the ring, so you never know.)

My prediction: Big Cass will win this one somehow.

Finn Balor vs. Bray Wyatt

Oh, Bray Wyatt. Apparently you have something against somebody for one reason or another again. This time, it's Finn Balor. And it's for basically the same reasons as Seth Rollins last month. Oh, boy. All of a sudden, this match happens at the Raw before SummerSlam. Wyatt won, then he poured a bucket of blood on Finn Balor, because he's Bray Wyatt. Finn Balor then gets with Kurt Angle and gets a rematch for SummerSlam, and says that even though Wyatt has his demons, he has his demons, too. Demon Balor rides again!

My prediction: Finn Balor will win this one.

John Cena vs. Baron Corbin

And we have this match which we have had yet to see as well. During the aftermath of Cena vs. Nakamura, Corbin decided to attack Nakamura, but Super Cena stepped in and save the day. Now Cena and Corbin are going to go at it for real...

My prediction: Baron Corbin will win this one.

Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins vs. Sheamus and Cesaro (c)

for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championships

Well, this is interesting. After weeks of a tease of a mini-Shield reunion where the remnants of Dean and Seth's trust towards each other were tested, Dean and Seth finally got back together as a team when they helped each other after a brief pushing and shoving match that was interrupted when they received a beating from both Sheamus and Cesaro. Raw General Manager Kurt Angle was quick to make a tag team title match out of this, and now we have a match for the red brand's tag titles

My prediction: Sheamus and Cesaro will probably retain.
