WWE Presents
WWE's SummerSlam 2009
Here is the official countdown brought to you
by the staff at Slam Wrestling!!
Summerslam (or Summerfest if you prefer) is here kids. Yes, the second-biggest PPV of the WWE year is finally upon us.
There's no question that WWE has built the event well. Every match has a well-built story, and despite notable absences it looks like we have much to look forward to. With eight bouts, we're bound to get a few good matches here, so on the surface this is one PPV worth ordering.Here are the matches to look forward to tonight.
Singles Match
Jack Swagger vs. MVP
Matt Johnson
Swagger begins the build up for a main event level feud with Cena following a win here.
I like the idea of elevating Swagger to the main event picture. I think WWE does as well. Swagger gets the decisive victory.
This and the ECW title match should be stellar, assuming they get enough time. Based on what happened on RAW, MVP should get the win.
Pure athleticism on display here with these two potential future world champions. Exchanging momentum in the past few weeks means this could go either way. Hopefully the feud continues and look for potential interference from Chris Masters.
Singles Match
Kane vs. The Great Khali
Matt Johnson
Yikes! Hopefully this is short. Kane wins.
Boring. Khali wins. It would be interesting though to bring 'Taker back as Kane's brother to have bro vs. bro at the next PPV, if only to have the Phenom be a heel for a while.
Bathroom match.
This will be short but definitely not sweet. Expect a slow plodding affair and that's about it. Khali avenges his brother Ranjin Singh and defeats The Big Red Machine.
Tag-Team Match
D-Generation X vs. Legacy
Matt Johnson
Watch DX vs. the Spirit Squad from 2006. Unfortunately, Legacy gets treated like the Spirit Squad here and DX gets the win. Next month Legacy gets weakened even more as DX takes on Rhodes, DiBiase, and Orton in a 2 on 3 match.
Legacy deserves the win, but they won't get it. DX gets the duke.
Okay, I admit I laughed when HBK supposedly superkicked that whiny girl in the restaurant he was working at. Still, that doesn’t mean I really want to see DX back together again – especially if it means that Legacy, two guys who should have great careers ahead of them, will get their legs get cut off. Hopefully DX does the right thing and puts over the youngsters.
Andy McNamara
Oh goody another DX reunion. I hope this relaunch of a now tarnished stable is for one night only as I just can't take more cheesy, lame skits. The sad thing is that Legacy really needs a huge victory to elevate them, but Triple H and Michaels will make them look like punks. I will be shocked if Rhodes & DiBiase are given the "W".
Intercontinental Title
Rey Mysterio (c) vs. Dolph Ziggler
Matt Johnson
Dolph pushes Rey to the limit with several near falls, but Rey pulls out the win.
Rey should be elevated up at least momentarily for a bout against CM Punk. Thus, he loses the belt to Ziggler who could use the rub in any case.
Their last PPV match was a bit disappointing, so hopefully these two have found their stride this time. I think Ziggler gets the upset win.
Andy McNamara
Ziggler has improved by leaps and bounds and is ready to take that next step. The big stage of Summerslam could be a good time for the youngster to grab I.C. gold. However, Rey is in his home state of California where he is super over as a Latino hero. Dolph should get the nod, but my pick will be that WWE gives the L.A. crowd their feel-good win and go with Mysterio.
WWE Unified Tag-Team Titles
Chris Jericho & Big Show (c) vs. Cyrme Time
Matt Johnson
Jericho and the Big Show role to victory.
The buildup here has been surprisingly good. Now that the tag team DVD has been out for a while though, look for this hype around the tandem straps to end. Jerishow ends.
What kind of sick, twisted world do we live in when Brian Kendrick and Paul London are looking for work and Cryme Tyme is on PPV? Jerishow retains.
Although I'm not a Cryme Tyme fan, they have done a good job building this feud versus the more traditional and serious champions. Jericho and Show have such potential to grow as a dominant team and I hope their reign does not come to an end. Cryme Tyme will be tag champs one day...just not this Sunday.
ECW Title
Christian (c) vs. William Regal
Matt Johnson
If given 20 minutes, this match is the best one the show. It ends up being about 9 minutes and being a decent match. Christian gets the victory.
ECW is a dead duck. Regal gets the W for the heck of it.
Too quick for Regal to win it now, but hopefully these two get into an extended feud, because it would result in some modern classics if so.
From a technical stand point this match will be tremendous. Unfortunately, as with most ECW angles, this storyline becomes lost in the shuffle. This could possibly be the curtain jerker. Christian keeps the strap.

TUESDAY NIGHT SEPTEMBER 8th, 2009
Hardy is probably leaving and Punk gets the win.
This will be the match of the night, hands down. The question is whether Hardy will lose. It appears that Hardy is on his way out, one way or another, but the question is now whether he sticks around for Tuesday's Smackdown taping. In theory he can with the match here then drop the belt later, or he loses here and loses the rematch as well, during which he puts his career on the line. I'll go with the former for the feel great ending.
In my view, this is the main reason to buy the PPV. Punk has been tremendous in the past couple of months, and it looks like the company has finally come to the realization fans had a year ago. Look for him to beat Jeff who is apparently heading for other ventures.
The real issue is the health of Jeff Hardy. If the rumours are correct and he needs some time off then he drops the gold. I'm thinking that Hardy does indeed require some down time...but it will not come this Sunday. Look for Jeff to lose the title in September and retain at SummerSlam. Either way it should be one helluva war.

SATURDAY NIGHT SEPTEMBER 5th, 2009
THEE MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING
WWE Title Match
Randy Orton (c) vs. John Cena
Matt Johnson
They usually like to end on a happy note and DX vs. Legacy does not seem strong enough to put on top. I think Cena wins with the Attitude Adjustment.
At one point this was a dream match, but it's now a nightmare. We've seen these two mix it up how many times now? Orton's bound to lose, which means we're bound to see this on yet another PPV for the mandatory rematch. Sigh.
Well, traditionally they show reruns on TV during the summer, and judging by RAW’s main event, WWE is following the trend. How many times are we going to see a variation of these two in the main event, with or without Triple H? In any case, with Legacy otherwise occupied in a match, Orton’s safety net is gone – and so will be his championship. Cena takes the gold.
Orton has escaped by the skin of his teeth the last few PPVs and his luck is about to run out. The next long title reign of John Cena is set to begin.
What a night it's going to be from Los Angeles, CA. So may questions to ask. Will it be Jeff Hardy's last night in the WWE?? Will John Cena be able to fight off the venomous ways of Randy Orton to become the new WWE Champion?? And can D-X get their revenge after the beating they took at the hands of Legacy?? All that and more will be answered tonight at WWE's SummerSlam.
Don't forget live tomorrow night on RAW Floyd "Money" Mayweather will be hosting RAW. What will the fallout be from tonight and what will he have in store for the Big Show after what he did to him last year at WrestleMania XXIV (24)??
Check back tonight (http://kingjayentertainment1.spaces.live.com) at around 11:30pm for all the results from the BIGGEST night of the Summer it's WWE's SummerSlam!!
