WhoShotMrBurns

Brock literally exposed the Dark Side of the Ring


Iammrpopo

Hornswoggle in shambles


gerardatron

He should have been there lmao. Imagine Brock upending the ring and this little bastard just scampers away


incredibleamadeuscho

They destroyed his home. Now he’s coming for payback


LilNardoDaVinci

Brock wake up you have to move your tractor bro


mrgpsingh1999

Somebody give him a ticket


TheNateRoss

You have 20 minutes to move your cube


greyhair_

Michael Cole was the best he’s probably been in a LONG ass time. Give the man some kudos.


mister_damage

Best since Beast in the East


datguyalben

Roman’s arms flailing as he fell down when the ring got tipped is gonna stay with me


Lessiarty

It was perfect motion. It looked exactly like someone whose world was tipped on it's arse needed to look like. Because it was.


divaface

Triple H? More like 4H. edit: this was an [agriculture club](https://4-h.org/) joke. i’m here all week.


incredibleamadeuscho

Headbooker Hunter Hearst Helmsley


The_Magic

His friends call him Quad.


h-town_info

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD...COUNT FASTER!!! \- Cole Cole was terrific on commentary


DemiGod9

He sold the fuck out of that finish. My mans was like "BROCK LESNAR IS GONNA FUCKING DIE! WHAT THE FUCK!"


SpaceGooV

Great all night. Literally his best MR PPV I think


DashCat9

Instant classic of a line. Cole's getting a lot of praise tonight, and he deserves it.


BryLinds

Mans is reaching JR levels out here


SakuraTacos

I was thinking the same but didn’t wanna be hyperbolic. Cole was giving me JR energy in the best way tonight


[deleted]

It’s like finally there is no crazy 70 year old geezer yelling in his year to talk like a robot.


AlcoholicJizzThrower

Dear Michael Cole. For everything I've said in the last 20 years. I'm sorry.


hamandcheezus64

Listen fuckhead, I forgive you


bsf91

What is this in reference to? I've read it a few times today


GSKashmir

https://youtu.be/Sx1PhviIAt4


i_ata_starfish-twice

Me too. He was phenomenal tonight! Count faster dammit had me rolling!


dtbrown1979

I haven’t had a chance to watch it properly(just on silent in the car while my missus is driving) Without Vince in his ear I’m assuming we have a new Michael Cole?


WYGD_Brother1987

for real, now that Vince is out of his ear he sounded like he wanted to be there.


metagrosslv376

Roman should have piled Paul's lifeless corpse on Brock as well.


Dozens86

That would have been fantastic imagery.


HygorBohmHubner

Fans: We're tired of Roman vs. Brock! There's nothing you can do that'll make the match interesting. Triple H: Hold my sledgehammer!


10567151

> There's nothing you can do that'll make the match interesting. Look, personally all I needed was Brock to do more than his 2 moves but this was sure something.


ucannotbeserious

This is the match they should have had at Mania. Better late than never.


Zamaron

The most dangerous thing in that Last Man Standing match was having a vehicle that close to the Usos’s.


jatorres

COUNT FASTER DAMNIT

One minute in and we can close the post show thread. We have a winner.


iluvurmumto

rbarton812

Goddamn


AeonLibertas

Hit 'em harder than the entire Street Profits match.


DxJaC

CLOSE THE DAMN THREAD BAH GAWD


KingDavid920

GOD DAMN.


DanTheStripe

Might be the best comment I've ever seen in this subreddit


Kalakarinth

Paul Heyman is dead. F


WhoDey42

After watching this story with Lesnar and Roman for a long time, it was about time Brock put him through a table


shutupmatsuda

I was looking forward to him getting inducted in Philadelphia in two years. F


DemiGod9

Well they always do at least one post humous inductee


Rob-Rob_

I was really hoping they would drag him over and toss him on that pile on Brock 😂


Coldcoffees

The last 10 minutes of that match were the chaotic trainwreck I hoped for and more. The visual of half of the ring being IN THE AIR was fucking bizarre.


h-town_info

Heyman took the F5 through the announcers table like a champ but he looks like shattered glass


InternetDad

And sold it straight through the end of the PPV


h-town_info

The visual of him being lifted up by both Usos was pure bliss


Gamesgtd

That was the best image of the night


alreadythe10th

I said that to my wife, Heyman sold that for the rest of the match.


thejawa

Heyman saw an opportunity for a nap and took it


DashCat9

I'm sitting there yelling "HOLY SHIT, GOOD FOR HIM!" as the 56 year old not-wrestler is put through a table. Thanks for that, Paul.


SiphenPrax

It was so Attitude era like in the best way


SpaceGooV

Ye I got Rock Mankind vibes with the level of craziness plus creativity


Chloooooover

Which is exactly why everyone ate it up lol. Attitude isn't rose colored glasses it was just more fun.


NewLegacySlayer

First ppv when triple h is back and someone is already getting buried


Julius-n-Caesar

This should have been the Mania match.


itsANOMALEEZ

Holy shit! That was amazing.


DictatorSalad

I don't want another Lesnar/Reigns fight because I don't think they can top that. What a fucking phenomenonal performance by both men. Bravo.


keiblerclown

Not without getting into deathmatch territory. Put this rivalry to rest.


Throwawaymywoes

I still can't believe Dakota Kai is back a week after Triple H took charge


zyh0

Joe would've been back in a heartbeat too lol


The-123-Kid-

Whoever suggested the tractor deserves a large raise


LTS55

The ring got a huge raise


WhoiusBarrel

RIP the little people's house.


Gamesgtd

Probably Brock and they couldn't say no


coldphront3

“If the tractor’s gone, I’m gone.”


nickosborn18

That was the coolest "fuck up the ringside area" spot any companies ever done


bmf131413

Prayers up if you spent $5k on a ringside seat by the entrance.


I_Am_Dynamite6317

Lol I was thinking the same thing. I go to a lot of shows and am constantly thinking about all the possible obstructions when picking seats, especially for a big show like this with the big posts and things like that. So all I was thinking was if I had bought one of those tickets where my view was now obscured by a tipped over ring, I’d be like damn, they fuckin boomed me.


WhatSheOrder

I am so god damn sports entertained


BCastle18

Most sports entertained I have been since Kurt Angle joined The Shield at TLC


jmb052

He was so happy.


WherePoetryGoesToDie

That moment was so incongruous but lovely. The music hit, you saw Seth and Dean making their way through the crowd with the same glowering expressions they always wore, and right behind them—fuckin’ Kurt Angle in tacticool gear, almost bouncing on his feet, wearing a shit-eating grin like a little kid left in a toy store overnight.


SpaceJam21

Shout out to Michael Cole. Great performance tonight, he really is great without Vince in his ear.


JustnTimberfake1

I think he dropped a “god damn” after Brock lifted the ring


TripleC673

He totally did! The audio feed dropped when it happened


itsANOMALEEZ

Yeah they had to cut that out


Jogginbaboon

Ronda was also "Pissed Off"


SpaceGooV

Ye they bleeped him out


M1BIGIEMAC

*COUNT FASTER!*


420Minions

Legit an all time call I think. We’re gonna see replays of this match for a long time. They finally made it feel as big as it should. Coles call helped it big time


bruhstevenson

That is exactly what I was thinking. He was phenomenal in the main event.


iLucky12

The biggest weight in the world was lifted off his shoulders when Vince stepped down


DemiGod9

He pretty much said just that lol. Corey said "I liked it better when you couldn't have an opinion" And Cole said "well things are different now"


[deleted]

Cole has been great since McAfee showed up and revitalized him (in his own words). I'm sure it's easier on him since Vince left and isn't screaming at him all night, but this isn't a new development because Vince is gone either.


ChanceVance

He was going nuts for Wee Man at WrestleMania. His call of Liv's cash in was great. No Vince helps but ever since he's worked with Pat, he's rediscovered his groove.


MoreVanillaToast

Haven't heard that level of energy and passion since JR in the Attitude Era days. I hope the AEW commentators are taking notes, and I say this as someone who has typically hated Michael Cole.


PerfectZeong

Dudes going to have a career renaissance and by the end of it we may say he was better than peak JR


Reptar_on_Ice6

That main event gave me some Attitude Era vibes. Just absolute chaos in the best way.


LafilduPoseidon

Literally just devolved into fucking carnage The ring flipping Heyman going through the table Roman hitting Brock with 20 different forms of bullshit and not keeping him down The whole Theory thing Roman beating unconscious Theory with his briefcase out of frustration The fucking ending by burying Brock under the announce table


Grantsdale

Roman hitting Theory gave me KO kicking Alex Riley flashbacks.


[deleted]

For real. Overbooked isn't always called for but sometimes it needs to be.


kirkofdoom

Did you **see** the ring??? *He flipped the bitch!!!*


TheNakedChair

I ***thank*** you for the Clone High reference.


ZombieDisposalUnit

STAMOS!


BrodeurCinemaClub

...Wesleyyyy.


[deleted]

[удалено]


fadingmemoryphoto

Somehow they structured a match that revolved around getting a tractor over


CakeBossUltimate

The ring being lifted up has to be one of the most iconic WWE images of all time


thebigfundamentals

Gonna be so overplayed in all their top 10s. I fucking loved it.


InternetsSpokesman

Last man standing should be just straight chaos. And look at that shit. Just crazy


TheWholeOfTheAss

That’s going in video packages from now till the end of time.


[deleted]

Alongside the milk truck and monster truck


Lineman72T

I've been watching wrestling for around 30 years. I watched this with a buddy that's been watching longer than that. We both looked at each other and said "never seen that before"


MurDoct

We live in a world where Pat and Logan Paul look like superstars


Bojangles1987

Pat is a motherfucking superstar! Seriously, there are so few people in this company more over than him.


denziepanzie

props to Corbin for helping him out though, that Superplex spot on the buckle was almost botched and could’ve ended badly for Pat but Corbin held onto him so he didn’t fall. Absolutely one of the safest workers in WWE Corbin.


XmiteYT

Starting to think Johnny Gargano might not be here guys


JDC4654

WWE's Mephisto


Knozis

I BELIEVE IT’S TIME TO SEND ANOTHER FRUIT BASKET


SiphenPrax

THE BIGGEST FRUIT BASKET OF ALL TIME!!


wordyravena

Of the SUMMER!


datguyalben

That felt like a Wrestlemania. Just so much fucking fun.


prazulsaltaret

This should've been their Wrestlemania match. The final Roman vs Lesnar match to end the tale.


pretender80

They did mention Brock has had more SummerSlam main events than anyone, in which case it's fitting to end at SummerSlam


BathtubBobby

Has to be Cody


Gotham0

Definitely Cody. Story writes itself.


Tronz413

Cody winning the Rumble to win the title his dad didn't and finally dethrone Roman at Mania writes itself. Only obstacle is a Rock return, but they could have Rock cost Roman the title at some point so Rock/Roman doesn't need to be for the titles. Maybe to Seth.


BathtubBobby

I think Rocks involvement should be stopping the Usos. Come back and disappointed with the way the family is represented, keeps the Usos and Heyman from tainting the match.


Tronz413

I hear you, but if Rock is free to be at Mania Hollywood, I feel like you have to just have them wrestle.


richardsmack_

I hope


JWiLLii

I'll take Cody v. Roman over Rock v. Roman.


RoyalPrinceJD

*In loving memory of Paul Heyman. 1965-2022*


AeonLibertas

Well, maybe not loving, but he sure left a memory. And an imprint on that table.


erick_shmerick

For the first time in a long time im actually excited to see what happens next in the WWE. The show did its job, it was super entertaining and set up things to come


[deleted]

Well, I'm watching RAW on Monday. So, that tells you all you need to know about this show.


DemiGod9

Don't let the main event distract you from BAYLEY, DAKOTA KAI, AND IO!


Mr-GameAndWrestling

I truly don't know where to begin with how fuckin' insane that LMS match was. Brock lifting the damn ring is frontrunner for Spot of the Year. Like, holy shit, that sight of the ring for the rest of the match. LOL.


Julius-n-Caesar

He tried to kill Roman during the match.


[deleted]

At this point someone is going to have to literally run Roman over with a tank and pin him with it to win.


sarcasticdevo

Somewhere, Miro's ears just perked.


thebigfundamentals

I am so fucking sports entertained. Michael Cole was great tonight. Good signs.


IAMA_MAGIC_8BALL_AMA

There was a missed opportunity not having Hornswoggle run from under of the ring following the tractor segment


Dirkdigglersdong

Think he might've literally died if he was hiding under the ring


ThirstyPotato

Paul Heyman died for our sins


MultiPass21

I enjoyed every second of that main event, from the entrances to the final bell. Awesome.


Bsantoro10

The opening 2 matches, womens angle and Roman/Brock were GREAT Middle of the show really fell off, but I still think the show was enjoyable.


itsANOMALEEZ

What a main event. Paul Heyman is a legend for the F5 sell. It’s an all-timer in terms of performance.


Survivor_for_me

Has there always been small parts of the Shield theme in Roman’s solo theme? Or am I going crazy


Wrestleman

They've always been there. There's a slightly different version they use for his exit theme after a win that has more of it than the entrance version. It sounds strange as a result.


Marky9281

I’m still stoked about Bayleys new group


rflairfan1

Fun show. I don’t care if it was Triple H or Vince’s vision. It was a fantastic time. Only thing is Uso’s should have lost and more Seth. I was more than sports entertained and tits were titillated.


NefariousNeezy

Triple H is one for one, but I feel like everyone that works for the company feels rejuvenated now. Everyone’s optimistic, and we should be too.


Bojangles1987

WWE PLEs have been really, really good starting with Wrestlemania. It's been a great streak. This one definitely continued it for me. Bianca/Becky was a great match with an even better aftermath. Logan Paul was great and Miz showed why he's one of the most reliable hands in the biz. The Last Man Standing match was the most over the top silly comic book bullshit ever and that's what it needed to be.


R2nxbeastly17

This just in Jericho’s sports entertainer of the week is the tractor


LoneWanderer2277

I wasn't overly hyped for the whole show or the main event. Both ended up being much better than I expected. The main event was absolute peak sports entertainment in all the right ways!


lukavwolf

Literally the best Summerslam in a LONG time.


iLucky12

This is why Brock Lesnar gets paid what he does


[deleted]

He really is the biggest star they have


Mysterious_Emotion63

If you have low expectations for a WWE show the chances it’s gonna be absolutely insane are 10/10


wananah

I need a cigarette


PM_ME_THEM_UPTOPS

I don't think they should let Brock drive that tractor back.


WhoDey42

Yeah and who is going to tell him he can’t, you?


[deleted]

Easily the best Reigns and Lesnar match and a pretty damn good show top to bottom


SavageLion

The show felt like it was booked to entertain the audience and not the booker


SiphenPrax

I’m so fucking happy Vince McMahon is no longer running WWE Creative. That is all.


ArkhamGeyser

Yeah, HHH delivered on all fronts tonight. Bayley returning, the Main Event. Up and Down the card it was a fun time.


h-town_info

HHH! HHH! HHH! HHH! HHH!


ibn1989

Easily the best Roman/Brock match ever. Hopefully that's the last of it.


Watchmaker85

I can’t believe Paul heyman is fucking dead


Stumblebee

What a phenomenal show. They blew it away.


gbdarknight77

That was easily Roman/Brock best match. Also, anyone else think this had a Mania feel?


ArkhamGeyser

Their Last Man Standing Match went full Buried Alive for the Finish and I FUCKING Love it. So many great spots, and that Tractor spot is instantly Iconic. Also Roman telling Theory he's a "Stupid Sonuva Bitch" Lol. Summerslam delivered and I was entertained. For HHH's first PPV, it was damn good. Edit: Can't NOT mention Bayley finally returning.


TenThousandFist

Logan Paul better than Dominick.


Mysterious-Disk4636

My fat ass is better than Dominik


seanmackradio

Tractor versus Roman at Wrestlemania


thebeebitmybottom

Michael Cole was on fire tonight. Main event was just bananas. Loved it.


[deleted]

WWE is in good hands.


AlphaSaks

I feel so good being alive and watching some classic, iconic matches like seth v cody hiac and todays last man standing match, live.


motivatedchange

Didn’t agree with the results for every match, but I still really enjoyed the show. I LOVED the commentary. It felt so much more relaxed and comfortable, less forced catchphrases and more natural reactions, and Michael Cole getting to show that he is actually really good at his job. Felt like a great way to wrap up the Vince era, and really kick off the HHH era.


RedKings1028

Triple H’s Takeover: WWE has officially started


CakeBossUltimate

Paul Heyman died for his Tribal Chief


Leftstranded

Greatest Roman/Brock match that didn’t involve Seth. Absolutely incredible finish. That’s how you end a feud for good.


incredibleamadeuscho

That was a main event worthy of 680 day reign of the Tribal Chief. An incredible fight that lived up to the billing. Acknowledge them! All who doubted Lesnar vs Reigns as the SummerSlam main event should eat a healthy dose of crow. Maybe find some from Brock at his farm.


talladenyou85

What an unbelievable show. For the longest time, I would watch and usually have other stuff to do it would be on in the background. I didn’t get anything accomplished tonight I was entertained from top to bottom. What a great start to the new era hopefully!


agentofchange92

First WWE PPV I've watched since 2015 and damn that was fun to watch. I forgot the incredible aura of a stadium show, I'm a sucker for pre match promo packages plus 3 and a half hours are a much better range for a PPV. Dunno how much of tonight was Triple H or Vince booking but I'm definitely gonna be paying more attention to the weekly shows over time.


[deleted]

Wrestling is better than the other things you watch.


azula_lol

amazing stuff from Triple H, the future’s bright in WWE


M1BIGIEMAC

Loved Bayley, DA BIG DAWG and Io showing up after Bianca vs Becky


WJack37

So I’m only a casual wrestling fan now, after I really loved it in that like 2011-2015 run. I don’t remember the last time I lost my shit at a wrestling spot like flipping the ring. That was unreal, and so unique too. Because WWE loves redoing their stunts, so to see something so bizarre that’s never been done is unreal


repairmanjack

Reigns rolling out of the lifted ring is going to be shown in quick montages for the next decade


RustyToasty

Now THAT is the WWE I have wanted to see for years. An immaculate show. Wrestling fans eating good right now. The business is booming.


youcantsaynotopizza

I love wrestling


dearrichard

that main event fucking ruled. i seriously doubted it was gonna be anything remotely good. i was wrong. i was thoroughly entertained.


RealHumanBean89

Brock said fuck it, we doing video game spots today. King of Yeehaw Style in this bitch. Legit my only complaint is changing Io’s name to IYO SKY. The Sky part? Sure, I can get with that. But Iyo? Idk about that one chief.


[deleted]

[удалено]


shutupmatsuda

Lmao he came out, hit Roman with the briefcasegot hit with an F5 from Brock, then just died.


Jakefmerch

Really good show. The only thing that was bad was Double J didn't break a guitar over anybody's head.


Stop4Weird

Quite surprised with Logan Paul he put on a really good match. I see a bright future for sure. This PPV was very fun though. Not bad WWE.
