History of the Event:

SummerSlam History

If Jeff has agreed to stay on through SS, then I want Punk/Jeff TLC. One way or another, I will get my TLC match sometime this year

The thing is, has there ever been a TLC match that did not involve a Hardy, Edge, or Christian?

No, all TLC matches have had at least one of them in. With Edge out, Hardy on the way out and Christian not really able to have a great TLC match with anyone on the ECW roster, that's why for me, SS is my last hope for one this year

Man I hope this year SummerSlam is at least 2x better than the past years. Plus since I'm going to the event, I'll know for sure I'll have fun cuz it's none better than being at a live event interecting with others.KevyR

No prob Rob! I'll tweet about it... oh wait, no I won't haha!

Anyways, as the event gets closer, I'm going to need to get some sign suggestion from you guys. Are you guys down?

The first thing WWE could do is NOT put Khali in a World Title match. That's been part of the last 2 SS's.

I don't see that happening at this year's SummerSlam! If he is in the main event, prepare for me to crap all over!

Khali's opponent last year was Trips, but I do not remember who it was in '07?Link256

How about "Another Headlock Randy?"

Must I repeat this consistent joke?

You might be. I agree with the peeps here that he overdoes it sometimes with the headlock. Otherwise, he's pretty darn good so long as he's booked right.

You could always advertise the Union.

Redders1989

I find that highly humorous! I might put that. 

Definitely, I'm make a sign to promote this Union. Something like "Real Fans only at World Wrestling Everything." How does that sound?

My friend bought the tickets and he told me it's somewhere on the Premier Level of the Staples Center on the camera side. I might be lucky enough to be on camera with a sign that is noticeable for them to film me. It's still not a bad view from where I sit cuz that is practically almost the same area I sat for when I went to RAW there 2 years ago.

Tables, Ladies, and Chairs for the World Heavyweight Championship
CM Punk(c) vs. Jeff Hardy

This is all I ask for and they will have my money.

If CM Punk is in a title match this year, it will be the 3rd straight year that he is in a title match at SummerSlam.

Assuming TLC match does occur this year, it will be the 6th time a variation of the ladder match has taken place at SummerSlam.

If it is Hardy vs. Punk TLC, then Hardy should be champ, it makes sense because if Punk beats him at The Bash it will the the fourth time retaining the title in a match against Hardy even if one wasn't clean and one was cashing in Money in the Bank. Storyline wise Rey or Morrison should be #1 contender after Hardy if he loses but I know WWE never makes sense.

Then again I wouldn't complain because that would be a fantastic match.

Well I got an e-mail from the Staples Center venue and they are telling me there is a FAN AXXESS event! I never knew they did one of these, EVER! Is this the first time? They are doing it for two days. 2 session on Saturday and 1 right before the PPV. I'm thinking of going to one of these.KevyR

If I'm right (which I'm probably not), this sounds like the first time they've done it at a non-WrestleMania event. Think they've done one every year for WM since (at least) 18.

I read on some wrestling site that they are trying to make Summerslam the head and shoulders 2nd biggest PPV of the year now so that's why their doing it.TonyStewart_90

• Emphasis the history of SummerSlam
• Have SummerSlam flashbacks
• Time between Night of Champions and SummerSlam should be 6 weeks, not 4
• Have a "Road to SummerSlam"
• Have "dream matches" on the card

I see all of those starting up soon, the only one I don't see happening this year is the 4 to 6 weeks, but WWE will do the right thing for the "WWE Universe", but other then thst I hope to see some great matches at this coming up SummerSlam.

Other than a TLC match, what are the other matches everyone wants to see?Link256

Even tho it won't happen I'd wanna see Orton vs Big Show for the world title. Just anything to keep Cena and triple nose out of a title match for once.

And what would yall think of a fatal 4 way TLC match Punk vs Jeff vs Matt vs Morrison. That's assuming Matt is cleared to wrestler by SS.

I think its safe to say we will end up seeing Orton/H/Cena III at Summerslam.

Oh lord, I hope not! Trips and Cena have been done to death!

What I will say is that, personally, I am not interested in the prospect of more Cena-Trips.

What about Orton Vs. Cena?????? :|

THat hasn't been done that much and WWE can have Orton Punt Cena's head off at the PPV, and then Cena takes a break and then Michaels comes back then the next night on Raw. :)

And why not make it really good by giving Cena the Gold, for one month. :|

What about Orton Vs. Cena?????? :|wwe4ever_in05

The rumor I have heard is Triple H vs. John Cena.Link256
