WWE Summerslam 2008 Review

Posted : 15 years, 8 months ago on 18 August 2008 02:08

August 17, 2008 Summerslam took place at Indianapolis, Indiana and this event was good better then last years. The thing is though they advertise Rey Mysterio at the start of the show but yet he was not on the show at all.

So anyway lets get into the event

Montel Vontavious Porter VS Jeff Hardy

This was a good match by both men and the ending just shocked me the match really did show how good MVP is but the ending I never wished happen with Shelton helping MVP to pick up the win. 6.5/10

Santino Marella and Beth Phoenix VS Kofi Kingston and Mickie James - Intercontinental Championship and Womens Championship on the line.

I can hardly call this a good match Santino hardly does nothing he acts like a girl he was pathetic because Beth did most of the work during the match. Now the match with Beth doing The Glam Slam I think it is to Mickie James. Now I wanted Mickie and Kofi to win but Beth is a good wrestler and she did some pretty good moves in the match. Now Santino is a joke and should not of got the Intercontinental championship. 5/10

Mark Henry (with Tony Atlas) VS Matt Hardy - ECW Championship

This match was crap only lasting 32 seconds all because Tony Atlas gets Mark Henry disqualified in order for Mark Henry to keep the ECW Championship. This was just Bull S*it and really why advertise this and why let it happen at a PPV its just pathetic. Though at the end the Jeff helps Matt so that was good. The match gets 1/10 while the part with the Hardys gets 4/10 I would of liked to have seen more of the Hardys.

CM Punk VS John "Bradshaw" Layfield - World Heavyweight Championship

I could not care less what happened I don't really care about CM Punk I don't mind him but this match for me was more like a sleeper. 2/10

Triple H VS The Great Khali - WWE Championship

I knew this match was going to be horrible and it was Triple H was getting beat up most of the way threw the match all of a sudden Triple H does a pedigree and Khali was going it looked pathetic and even the people were shouting to Khali you can't wrestle. Good that Triple H kept the title cause Khali is pathetic. 3/10

John Cena VS Batista

This match was made more of a fuss of then The Hell in A Cell who cares if it was the first game these 2 were VS each other. This match was quite good John Cena looked a bit pathetic with the STFU on Batista looked fake as hell. Though the highlight of that match was Cena jumping of the top rope and getting the Batista bomb. Batista beating John Cena was good great when John Cena loses I can't really stand him. 7/10

The Undertaker VS Edge - Hell in a Cell

Now this was the match I was waiting to see Undertaker and Edge and to the feud was the best led up to this match was brilliant. The whole match was enjoyable and really best match of the year so far. The cage smashed at the side Edge done a spear to Undertaker through the Spanish announcers table. Edge gets chokeslammed through a table. I am going to skip to the end everything Edge done to Undertaker he did to Edge hitting him with a camera Edge getting a spear Edge been hit a One man conโ€“chairโ€“to. The end was just good Edge getting chokeslammed off the ladders and through the ring where fire came out at the end. Both men give a great match it was enjoyable and it was well worth staying up till 4am to watch it. 9.5/10 it is the best Hell in Cell match I have seen in a long time.

Update: Now watching the DVD WWE have made editing to the crowd by trying to cut out the swearing. Another Edit takes place in the hell in a cell match the part where Edge gets thrown of the ladder it goes into a Undertaker video thing with little girls laughing a bit hard to explain but it wrecks the whole thing. The DVD extras are bad you get a boring ECW match the rematch with Mark Henry and Matt Hardy its a waste of time. a 45 second segment of WWE Summerfest and an awful segment with Shawn Michaels which is just lifeless. Hey WWE add something worth next where the hell in Edge's fantastic segments leading up to SummerSlam those needed to be added but anyway they should on on Edge's WWE DVD. WWE need to improve on there DVD extras because they just suck. As for Summerslam it's a great event
