It's time for the biggest event of the summer, as Summerslam celebrates it's 25th anniversary. This show has seen many memorable moments over the years, from the Ultimate Warrior ending the Intercontinental title reign of the Honky Tonk Man, to TLC 1, to Shawn Michaels triumphant return to the ring, to Brock Lesnar capturing his first WWE Championship less than 6 months into his WWE career. Will this years show be just as unforgettable?

I honestly have no idea if Brock or Hunter will win

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I honestly have no idea if Brock or Cena will win

Who's Cena wrestling?

 

[Postman Dave]

Triple H is gonna die.

 

[Gentleman Jake]

Trips may lose at Slam but the blow off is gonna be epic

 

[Lover Boy]

HHH/Lesnar is gonna be awesome.

 

[The Viper]

A few months ago (right around when Lesnar returned), I watched my Global Warning Tour DVD and in the middle of the Rock/HHH/Brock main event, I was thinking to myself, "it's a real shame that Brock and HHH never had a one on one match". Thank fucking goodness it's finally happening. I can't wait.

 

[Lover Boy]

I don't really like HHH that much so personally I hope that Lesnar destroys HHH. I also quite like Heyman.

 

[Sabretooth]

Who's Cena wrestling?

Sorry I meant Triple H

 

[Postman Dave]

Both World title matches added.

Will I order my first Summerslam in 3 years? Not looking good so far, although the allure of Triple H's death by Brock is hard to resist.

 

[Postman Dave]

card updated, with 5 matches added & one World title match removed.

I can see a swerve happening with the Del Rio/Sheamus booking. Dunno what though.

 

[Sabretooth]

WWE.com has confirmed that WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels’ arm was broken during a brutal attack by Brock Lesnar on Monday’s Raw and he will not be at this Sunday's SummerSlam.
