Smiths: Still weighing the watching of this.
I can't believe I don't care enough to watch fucking summerslam.
then again, I didn't watch Money in the Bank either.
WWE PPVs are just commercials for RAW and nothing ever gets decided.
all this PPV has done is take 4 more dates off Brock's calendar.
I'm starting to get to the same point you are. However, I have paid my $15 for a month of access to HD quality fishing, so I might as at least turn it on. You'll know I've lost interest when I stop posting - because I'll have headed upstairs and gone to sleep.

I've got a buddy that'll be in the crowd tonight. He's on the camera side, but not in the really expensive seats, so he may or may not show up on camera.
Look for a sign that says, "Yes! No! Yes! No! ... Maybe?"

Only match on the card that has any real appeal is Ziggler/Jericho, and we all know Jericho's gonna job out before the Fozzy tour. But, what the heck, here's the predictions:
WWE Championship Match CM Punk (c) vs. Big Show vs. John Cena
I think they're gonna let Punk's reign last an entire year. I see this not having a clean ending so they can keep Cena/Punk going
Brock Lesnar vs. Triple H Only makes sense if they want Lesnar to come across as a bad ass for Wrestlemania. He needs to win one in a dominant fashion. Gagne will screw it up
World Heavyweight Championship Match Sheamus (c) vs. Alberto Del Rio
Mexico tour reign 2.0, ADR as a temporary champ again.
WWE Intercontinental Title Match The Miz (c) vs. Rey Mysterio They allegedly want to rebuild the prestige of the minor belts, short reigns don't do that, ergo, Miz to retain
WWE Tag Team Title Match Kofi Kingston & R-Truth (c) vs. Titus O'Neil & Darren Young Prime Time Players just seem like they'd work better as champions, plus babyface teams like Kofi/Truth work better when chasing belts
Chris Jericho vs. Dolph Ziggler Fozzy break
Kane vs. Daniel Bryan Bryan can't keep losing in main events if he doesn't at least get some legitimate PPV wins.
WWE United States Title Match (Pre-Show) Santino Marella (c) vs. Antonio Cesaro Build the belt. Get it off the comedy character.
The following matches are rumored for the event but are not yet confirmed:
Sin Cara vs. Cody Rhodes Cody should win, but Sin Cara's relatively recent return means they'll want to re-establish his bona fides
Damien Sandow vs. Brodus Clay Because he is the savior of the unwashed masses

* The "Shouldn't it be a European Title?" Pre-Show Match for WWE US Title: Santino Marella vs. Antonio Cesaro: Santino's title reign has been pretty much a joke from day 1. Ceasro needs to break out in a big way, and this is a golden opportunity for him to do so. If he doesn't win, it would be a colossal waste of talent and resources. So I'm betting the farm on Santino.
* The "Black on Black Violence" WWE Tag Team Title Match: Ghana Get Got vs. The Primetime Players: Kofi and Troof. I will mark the fuck out for a "We want AW" chant.
* The "King of the Jobbers" WWE Intercontinental Match: The Miz vs. Rey Mysterio: I'll go with The Miz. Even before his second strike, Vince doesn't like putting a belt on someone as small as Rey.
* The "Wait, Who's the Babyface Again?" Match: Chris Jericho vs. Dolph Ziggler: Tough call, but I'll go with the guy who's getting a huge push and will still be around after Summerslam. In other words, Ziggler.
* The "Just Say No to Fiat Currency Match": Kane vs. Daniel Bryan: Daniel Bryan gets back into the title race with all his heat, and Kane goes back to hell. Mid-card hell.
* The "Tostitos Hint of Lime" World Heavyweight Title Match: Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio: Sheamus. He may be next in line to feud with Lesnar.
* The "Even Cena Takes a Back Seat To the Boss" WWE Championship match: CM Punk vs. The Big Show vs. John Cena: The next PPV is in Boston, so I'll predict a dusty finish that winds up with Punk retaining.
* The "HBK Retirement Tour Match": Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar: Lesnar. He really needs a victory for him to be taken seriously.
As for unannounced piss break matches, Sandow over Brodus Clay, and Sin Cara over Cody Rhodes, should they occur.

I have zero faith in the WWE, so I see this happening. God I hope I'm wrong.
WWE Championship Match CM Punk (c) vs. Big Show vs. John Cena
Brock Lesnar vs. Triple H
World Heavyweight Championship Match Sheamus (c) vs. Alberto Del Rio
WWE Intercontinental Title Match The Miz (c) vs. Rey Mysterio
WWE Tag Team Title Match Kofi Kingston & R-Truth (c) vs. Titus O'Neil & Darren Young
Chris Jericho vs. Dolph Ziggler
Kane vs. Daniel Bryan
WWE United States Title Match (Pre-Show) Santino Marella (c) vs. Antonio Cesaro
The following matches are rumored for the event but are not yet confirmed:
Sin Cara vs. Cody Rhodes
Damien Sandow vs. Brodus Clay
Granted, even at their worse I don't see them doing EVERYTHING that would piss me off, and I don't even think the WWE is off its hinges enough to let Jericho or Brodus win (if the Brodus match is happening).
The one I really have no idea on is the Free for All match for the US Title. It would make sense and be good to have Cesaro take the title, but are they going to bother to do something important like a title change on the Free for All? Also there's the whole thing that the US Champ (and IC champ, really) can only win when the title is on the line. Add the fact that the WWE is great at wasting their talent, and I really don't know what to make of this...

Christ on a cracker - I wonder how many in the "WWE Universe" realize there is no such thing as the language of "Swiss".
Switzerland has FOUR official languages - French, German, Italian and Romanish.

You don't actually see anything, the "SO FUCKING GOOD" is her during the interview...she screams that...she's a trip. The only thing you really see is the tattoo artist in a mash style surgeons mask holding her butt cheeks apart as he tattoos. The cameraman never shoot from behind her waist. He stays waist forward filming her face as she interviews

Ah, he found the old Texas brown snake...
I guess this was in the best interest of making the mid-card belts "meaningful". I suspect half of this is because Santino is less than thrilled at the goings on behind the scenes and actually has enough money in the bank to tell Vince to go fuck himself if he gets fed up.

That was stupid...
Oh well, maybe, they'll do something with Cesaro and the US title. Or he will immediately start losing non-title matches against Orton, or Mysterio, or Sin Cara...

I noticed santino looked like he was walking thru that match and even looked extra stiff... It's his fault anyway. Saw a sign that said "euthanize the cobra" Perfect.

Yes, Santino lost when his li'l cobra was more interested in Aksana than in fighting.
