Next week, WWE is going to be competing with Monday Night Football. For a build up to next week show they present to the fans, botchamania. Let's start with my favorite part of the whole show, the highlight wheel. Triple H, adding another W in WWE. Of course being the kind of guy that I am, I had fun with it on my twitter timeline. @big_dusty. You can catch it there.
Through out the night WWE showed vignettes of #GrowingupBella which went over like an atheist joke at a church convention. The story would work, if the performers knew how to work. With Brie and Nikki stinking up the joint literally, why push them in our faces. And with that give Nikki a title shot? Word? That storyline needs to end, it doesn't need the title.When something is not working it's best to nip it and call an audible. To involve quality talent like AJ and Paige in that story is dumb. Beyond dumb, actually.
Best part of the show to me was John Cena showing some attitude. I liked the spot at the end where Cena gave Roman the tag so he could get the win. That was best for business. And Cena getting in HHH's face and AAing Seth Rollins on the table while staring HHH and Stephanie down. Too bad that couldn't save the show. As for the rest of the show I'm going to be honest I didn't really watch because i was watching the Miami Hurricanes lose to Louisville. Bleh.
Going by my timeline on Twitter, the rest of the show wasn't that better. I missed Heyman's promo which I'm sure was epic. Heyman has been the highlight of Raw for months. Anyway, Raw is promoting Michael Sam, first openly gay drafted player for the NFL next week. Also for next week Jericho vs Bray Wyatt in a cage. And Roman Reigns vs Randy Orton. Next week has potential, but one would think they would use this week to build up next week.
This reminds me of bad husbands. That screw up week after week, and when they go to far, they bring chocolates and flowers and do everything right thinking that one thing would fix all the issues. Not so. Do right every time. Maybe that makes too much sense.

SUMMERSLAM: SHUT THAT KID UP!!
Ladies and gentlemen...my name is Daniel Richerson, and Summerslam just went off the air. What a night it was. Starting off with the IC title match. Miz vs Ziggler. I honestly had to rewatch this match because during the match my cpu froze and I had to restart my cpu. Mr. Ziggles won.
So then you had Paige vs AJ Lee. These two wrestlers that happen to be in the divas division tore the house down. Paige definitely got some men's attention during this match. AJ put up a heck of a fight and had her submission move on and Paige countered it with a crazy version of a DDT and got the 3 count. New champion. Also Michelle Beadle was at ringside. If you know the story between AJ, CM Punk, and Michelle Beadle, then you know why I say that Beadle had a hand in AJ losing. WWE book it!
Now the flag match. This match was a match I feel that Swagger should win because of all the mess that's happening in this country, USA needed something to cheer about. First let's talk about the how it began. Russev waved his flag, and Swagger was waving his flag and Russev attacked Swagger which caused the flag to fall to the mat. JBL was pissed when that happened. JBL loves America. So in my mind I thought it would be a mistake if Russev won. Sure enough Russev won. I understand heat, but this may be a bit much. The match itself, it was solid, but nothing to brag about.
Dean Ambrose vs Seth Rollins was a match when I saw it on the card I thought it was going to be a show stealer, and for most of the match it was. It wSent in to the crowd. It was a great match back in forth. Then the waste of time Kane had to make an appearance. Kane ruined what was a classic match. Ambrose hit Rollins finisher and had the pin and Kane interfered and caused an fight among the lumberjacks the ring. And the finish was Rollins hitting Ambrose with the MITB briefcase. I hated it. Kane ruined the match. I hated that spot.
Bray Wyatt vs Jericho I thought on paper had a lot of potential. Turns out the match was boring. A few high spots here and there, but over all it was a bore. The only good thing that happened is Bray got the win.
Stephanie vs Brie was a fun watch. Stephanie ring attire was...sexy. I'll say it. Stephanie looked sexy. Brie looked anorexic. Brie looked hungry being in the ring with Stephanie. Nikki turned on Brie and Stephanie got the W. I saw that coming. Jim Ross saw that coming too. It was a good match for what it was. Stephanie was actually getting more cheers than Brie until Triple H came out and Nikki made the turn.
Roman Reigns vs Randy Orton. During the pre show Ric Flair said Randy Orton was the best in the business today. I thought Flair was drunk. Orton showed out in this match. I still won't call him the best, but he's definitely in the top 5. Who do I say is the best? AJ Styles. Just my opinion. Anyway back to the match. The crowd went Cena on Reigns for some reason. They started to boo him. I actually like Roman. Yes, he has a lot of work to do, but he has the look. Roman won and he should've won. Like it or not, Roman is the next it guy.
And now...Brock Lesnar vs John Cena...total domination by Brock. John Cena went out like a jobber or "enhancement guy." I have to give my respect to John Cena. He's a top guy. He didn't have to go out like that, but Cena was like screw it, I'll take the loss. Brock Lesnar handed Cena 16 German suplexes. 16. My Goodness. Not to mention there was this little kid chanting, "Let's go Cena!" Everybody on Twitter wanted this kid to shut up. And thank God Brock made that happen. Also that poor mark of a sign guy. He tried to start one of those slow claps for Cena, and needless to say it didn't work. Justin Credible wasn't a fan of how Cena lost, but like I said, I like the way Cena lost. It was different, and Cena needed something different in his career. 15 time champ, he's had his time. He's a hall of famer, no doubt. Is Cena done? I don't think so. But with Nikki going heel, we just might see--just might see--Cena go heel? Just saying...
