But it was the Scottish Terminator & The Maverick who decided to bully Jelly Roll and act like he’s some kind of “outsider.” The hypocrisy from Logan is palpable except to his dense self, but will #RKRoll drive it home that there are no such things as outsiders?

Der Ring General kept this strictly professional by saying The Best in the World is NOT CM Punk! Gunther has been a champion for well over 80% of his time in the WWE!

Winner: Seth Rollins, by pinfall (NEW WWE World Heavyweight Champion)

Bron & Bronson are also here to celebrate with their mastermind of a leader, because they all love it when a plan comes together! They all raise their hands and the pyro goes off! Is this just the beginning of their world domination?
My Thoughts:
An awesome first night of this first-ever two-night SummerSlam, and it went faster than I had expected. The three hour countdown show was still more than was needed, given the main show itself only just managed to push past three hours. That aside, good move having the opener be Roman & Jey VS Bron & Bronson. For one, the entrance length of Jey and Roman total took some time, so it was good to get that out of the way at the start and adjust accordingly. Great win for Roman & Jey, but I was surprised we didn’t get the stereo spears like we did during the build. At the same time, great character stuff with Roman taking the spear from Bron so that Jey could finish things off. I wonder if that plays into the story’s next few weeks.
Especially considering that awesome ending. Punk VS Gunther was a great match, a real gritty display to show Punk can still tough it out with this generation. Great win for Punk, but then surprise! Rollins’ knee really wasn’t that bad, and they were waiting to spring the trap. As Maggle coined it, this was Rollins’ Ruse of the Century to go with the Heist of the Century, and Rollins is champion again. And maybe now there’s the “Can They Coexist?” Six Man Tag where Punk, Roman and Jey have to work together to go after Rollins, Bron & Bronson. It’ll mostly be Punk and Roman working out their differences with Jey as the peacemaker.
Great Women’s Tag Team Championship match, and how great that they tricked us with the miscommunication spot. Charlotte has been around long enough to understand that trope so she knew not to get mad at Alexa and focus on the opponents. I’d guessed Charlotte & Alexa would win and I was right, because now this helps both their story and the Judgment Day’s story move forward. Great Women’s Championship match from Tiff VS Jade, but it sure went quick. Was it meant to be that short? I can’t imagine them needing to cut for time. But they did a good job protecting Jade in the loss, at least.
Great match from Sami VS Kross, but I’m a little surprised they gave Sami both the moral victory and actual victory. It’s like John Cena VS Bray Wyatt that first time around where Cena did the exact same thing. I suppose this is so Sami can move up to a championship, maybe the world championship, but I’m very curious to what Kross does. The fans have put their support behind Kross, but is there a plan we’re just not seeing? And great stuff with #RKRoll VS Drew & Logan, this was on the level of when Bad Bunny had his time in WWE. Jelly Roll wasn’t in this to make a name for himself, he was in this for how he loves pro-wrestling like the rest of us.
Plus, you gotta applaud and respect everything Jelly was willing to do here. He took that table frog splash spot, he took the finishers and the pin, and as he said in his interviews with Jackie Redmond and with Stephanie McMahon, he is working on his physical health. He weighed over 300 pounds ever since middle school, but he finally worked it off to be 299 today, and he only plans to get healthier. Good on him, let’s all support him on that journey. God bless, Jelly Roll, you were awesome today.
My Score: 8.9/10
