Some actual good booking by WWE, I'd like to think it'll last but I doubt it.

they'll bury legacy at summerfest.

As it turns out, the man who attacked referee Scott Armstrong during the WWE Championship match between Randy Orton and John Cena before being dragged out by personnel was not a fan. The individual in question is WWE developmental wrestler Brett DiBiase.

DiBiase is the 21-year-old son of wrestling legend "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase. and brother of current WWE star Ted DiBiase, Jr. WWE signed the third generation wrestler to a developmental contract at the start of the year.

Bryan Danielson has agreed in principle to a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment.

Good to see Danielson sign a contract and hopefully he will get a chance like CM Punk has, because he's an amazing talent. There are rumours that WWE wants to sign about 5 ROH wrestlers.

As long as they let Danielson keep his style, because he's one of the best pro wrestlers in the world. The amount of talent that has been through ROH and is now with either TNA or WWE is staggering.

Oh and the DX pyro, tank, army last night, I wonder how many years I'd need to work to afford that

Summerslam was a bloody good show all in all.

Mysterio/Ziggler, Punk/Hardy and Legacy/DX were all excellent matches.

There was a lot of dross on show as usual. The WWE Title match was the biggest clusterfuck I've seen in a long time.

Also the lack of time given to ECW annoyed me. They could have easilly cut DX's enterance down and had a fine 6 minute match there instead. But no, they devalue a world title to an 8 second match. That's why I hate WWE at times, I watch it for wrestling, not to see two 40 year old men play with tanks.

Rumours that Brett DiBiase will replace Ted who's going to turn face to tie in with his role in the Marine 2.

Epic fail on that one.

I download FCW every week, he's a couple of years off being ready for the main roster.

Nigel McGuinness and Claudio Castagnoli are the 2 ROH guys who would go well in the WWE as they have the WWE look.

McGuinness wouldn't.

He's a spot monkey who's got progressively worse over the past few years.

I thought SummerSlam was great. Taker's return was awesome, didn't realize he had switched with Jeff until he sat up, thought it was done very well.

Ziggler vs Rey was a good match, Kane vs Khali was pointless, they should have scrapped it and given the time to the ECW title match. Had a bathroom break during the Orton - Cena match but what I saw was one WTF moment after another

Triple H and Shawn are both great wrestlers, both good on the mic etc. but I cringe every time they reunite as DX. It's two guys in their 40s behaving like young rebels I find everything they do together, bar their matches, to be horrible these days, the way HBK runs circles around HHH, the way Hunter goes "are you ready?..... I Said ARE YOU READY!!" Etc. etc.

Really disappointed with the time given to the ECW match - I'm fans of both Christian and especially Regal. ECW isn't a bad show at all IMO when it comes to actual wrestling.

Taker and Michaels should give WWE a bit of a boost in the coming months. Punk/Taker looks interesting and surely the long overdue heel turn of HHH should be around the corner for a feud with HBK.
