Montana's SummerSlam Review
I'd like to start out by saying this was a alright/average PPV. I think it under delivered in some areas, but overall entertaining. (on a side note, Peep AKA WWeMark got 3 of 8 wrong, even though the wwe is predictable and the odds were like 50/50)
Kane vs Finlay
Not bad, Not good. These guys did a solid match for about 10 minutes, nothing we couldnt have seen on SD though.
Umaga vs Kennedy vs Carlito
Again, ok match, I thought Umaga would pin Carlito, and carlito would stay in a fued with Umaga. Not sure why they jobbed kennedy out.
Rey vs Chavo
Match of the night Imo. No clue what was up wtih the silver paint, but the match was solid. I'd rate this as high as 3.5 stars. Great wrestling/high flying match, and i think chavo stepped his game up for this one.
CM Punk vs Johnny Morrision
I think EVERYONE thought Punk would win. This may be a little far fetched, but could we see CM Punk on Raw tonight? Nah. that won't happen. But thats the only logical explaination to why punk wouldnt have won this. poor ending. Less than 3 stars.
Diva Battle Royal
Too long
MVP's Challenge
I thought this was pretty good. I thought austin may appear, and did so. It kinda looks now like MVP just might be the next rock. He's getting major exposure, and is easily the best overall talent on SD. Keep this in mind ....MVP + Austin equal ratings.
HHH vs Booker
I feel asleep to honest...HHH looks way too skinny. What i saw, these two looked like they had very little chemistry, i heard this was a good match, but i saw most of it, and did not think so at all. I think DQ would have been teh right thing here.
Batista vs khali
Again, missed this one too, but i'd say Khali should have cleanly won.
Ortonvs Cena
This was a good match, but not great. This was the blockbuster match of the era, and probably could have went 5 more minutes. Again, these guys didnt have a lot of chemistry in the ring, as Cena looked pale, and old, while Orton look tanned and fresh. This one could have gone either way. I'd imagine they'd have a rematch. 3.25 stars. ( Any more than that, would be based strictly on dream match factor)
Overall, this was probably a 6/10. The matches were alright, the segments were great, but the way it was booked, and the endings was just plain bad. Im still shaking my head how John Morrision beat CM Punk. Oh well. Its the wwe.
