Short match but I enjoyed it. Good to see that Punk and Cena both walk into SummerSlam with wins.

One hour to go and three big matches have already occured. Maybe Morrison will talk, Contract signing and something to do with the Divas.

You could tell Del Rio didn't want to go with the GTS, clearly covering his face before the move was even executed.

I see Ziggler vs. Riley, JoMo Promo, Beth Phoenix out...

This is good, an hour left yet so much to do.

I forgot about Ziggler, definitely see them having an altercation tonight to book a match for SummerSlam.

That is what needs to happen. When HHH comes out for the contract signing he needs to announce a couple more matches for SummerSlam.

Wrestlemania on NBC this weekend.

Lucky Americans. I wish Australia would do something like this.

I really don't like WWE's build for their PPVs anymore. They only build a select number of matches and then the rest are put in the burner.

Andrew I gave up on a Cena heel turn after the whole Nexus thing last year, if it was going to happen, it would have been then, just don't see it anymore.

Yeah you make a good point Keith, I just don't really like Face vs. Face matches for big events like Wrestlemania and I cannot see Rock being the bad guy...

Only time will tell I guess.

Beth with a new pose at the entrance ramp.

Either promo or killing a diva. Either way is good for me

I wish they would announce them a lot earlier as well so that there is at least a week or two to build them all.

Beth Phoenix is coming to the ring for a match.

Eve comes out to face Beth Phoenix. New song, I don't mind this song at all, nice beat to it.

Beth will destroy.

The crowd are always dead for Divas these days.

There are no divas that appeal to the masses like Lita and Trish were able to do.

Until a face starts doing a lot of cool moves like they used to the fans won't cheer them.
