Riley is not safe. The spinebuster was sloppy as hell, and the punch looked like a real punch.

Just reading what happened it sounded horrible. They need to split Vickie and Dolph, it should have happened months ago as they have done all they can with that partnership.

Have they announced anymore matches?

Anyone else think that the commentators have been much better tonight compared to last week?

WWE video package highlighting the Punk vs. Cena feud.

Ziggler jumped too high so that was Ziggler's fault for Riley's botch there.

Vickie needs to manage Tyson Kidd asap because that kid is fucking talented and under-rated and put on the best match I've seen on TV (Bryan vs. Kidd). If you didn't watch Smackdown last week, watch the match.

No matches announced, I expect Morrison/Truth to a double countout so they announce it for SS

Vickie managing Kidd would be a good idea. Gives him more heat and she can do all the talking for him.

Morrison vs. Truth and the contract signing must be all that is to come. I still expect Triple H to announce some more matches before the contract signing starts. They have to announce more SummerSlam matches tonight.

Four matches for Summerslam.

I expect Morrison/Truth happening so that's 5.

Smackdown announces one more maybe Bryan/Barrett or Rhodes/Zeke for the IC to make it 6.

They recapped the SummerSlam card with no additions. Only four matches but all four matches should be good.

Truth coming to the ring now for his match with Morrison.

Surely Mysterio, Miz, Del Rio and Kofi need to be on the card as well.

And here we have another free give away, how odd, surely WWE have enough other options to face these guys.

Still just the four matches for Summerslam.

I don't get it either. They must assume that the two world title matches will draw in the buyers and that everything else on the card is just a bonus.

Surely they won't leave it at four matches after tonight. Would be better if they announced it on RAW rather than on wwe.com that way more fans find out about it.

Keith - As I said, this match needs to end in double countout for it to continue Sunday.

Quick start to this match with Morrison hitting quite a few big flashy moves.

Morrison already hitting the Standing Spanish Fly.

I'm digging the move but it's dangerous, could be easily botched.
