Yeah that's the only issue I can see. Maybe they could chuck more money at him and he'll work more days.

Have I missed something here? Has summerslam actually happened or?
No, but for some reason WWE have made the promo video of John Cena vs Brock Lesnar for the title(s) at SummerSlam already. Obviously, it got leaked (on Canadian television somehow) so everyone who has seen it knows that John Cena will still be champion come mid-August when SummerSlam happens.
It sometimes baffles me why they make promotional videos so early as the chance of them leaking is obviously of a reasonable amount and it has spoiled any chance of something else happening at the next PPV before SummerSlam. The only reason can be Lesnar's availability, otherwise they should have made the video after Battleground...
I'd bet good money they're going to put the title on Orton or Kane (probably Kane) at Battleground as a result of this...
Cena will win it back the next night on RAW or something.

Called it. Brock must have signed more dates, otherwise it's going to be one shitty title reign, although it will be good to have a monster heel champion that's believable to stomp through opponents.
So, if the thing about some Russians shooting down this plane that had American's on board does turn out to be true over the next few days, do we think Rusev might get the Muhammed Hassan treatment on Sunday?
Bork Lasers back?!
Weheyy. I may need to tune in again.

It can't be that hard for her seeing as she grew up in Russia
Well actually Latvia who was a member of the Soviet Union at the time. Her family moved there because of her dad's job as a Christian missionary
Lana's ridiculous accent will dissapear and Rusev will be a Bulgarian again.
I miss this song from Barrett. Decent fan made Titantron as well.
Better than his current one.
I expect him to present the title to the winner of the battle royal, then knock them out with the bullhammer and give them bad news that he will be back for his title.
I actually like his current song mostly cos it goes with his entrance. Hope when he returns from the injury, he can get back to the level of his performances before injury.

I'm delighted that he's going to be there purely for the 'bad news' bit. Whatever it may be.
I think he's more over now than he's ever been. He's got a top level gimmick that'll work heel or face. Looking forward to his return, I think he'll return at the level he got injured at a minimum because of how over this gimmick is.
Predictions for tonight?
Most of it looks straight forward, with two slight tough calls:
Ambrose vs Rollins - Probably Ambrose, but this one could go either way and I'd fancy there to be a DQ involved.
IC Title - Cesaro is probably favourite, but they could dump it on Sheamus. I'd assume whoever gets it will eventually lose it to Wade when he's fit to return anyway.

They seem to have gone the other way, Cena has stopped being advertised for Raw tomorrow night so it's looking like they might run with Reigns as champion
He needs a better finisher.
I hope not - it's too soon for Reigns in my opinion... he needs a better build and a better story going into his first title run, otherwise I think he'll just fall by the wayside.
To be fair, the crowd always seem to pop for the Bullhammer... so on that basis, I think it works very well.
But then I'm a huge Barrett mark and I'm basically into everything the bloke does... so what do I know.
You and me both mate, He is my early pick for Rumble winner
Same here, I really really like his bad news gimmick. Just think his finisher looks a bit weak compared to some of the iconic ones.
Rumour is that Cena retains, no cash in or usual failed cash in due to Ambrose, then Paul Heymans client will attack Cena leading to a Summerslam match and putting him out of Raw tomorrow
My point still stands.
It's funny how the leaked advert mentions the match but not how it's a title match isn't it.
Could see Brock extending his contract, light schedule, upper card, add in a title reign, good chance he's happy with things now.
Here's Renee Young talking to Japanese wrestling legend Funaki.
Oh, it's the Usos against the Wyatts. 2/3 falls. Yay.
What a match.
Not watching but from what I'm hearing The Uso's Vs The Wyatts is fantastic
Smashing!
Christ on a fecking bike.
Great match indeed.
Haven't seen a tag match that good in a long time, especially one without any mad gimmicks.
Jericho looks out of shape. He's struggling and looks gassed.
The Sandow revolution begins tonight.
Bo-lieve!
Bo-lieve!
Cesaro to win.
Actually, Ziggler or Bo Dallas will win.

Wait Jericho is back? I might jump back into the WWE viewership until Summerslam right.
Cesaro got eliminated by Heath Slater
He's lost all his momentum since Wrestlemania. Same as Wyatt.
Go away The Miz.
