Summerslam preview

Read on for my ideas for booking tonight's WWE Network special event.
-- Kickoff:
- Gulak vs. Oney:
Good match. Gulak wins. I think it might be time to plan the end of 205 Live as SDL moves to FOX, since no one's watching it. An argument can be made for putting the cruisers on the upcoming NXT FS1 show. Certainly some can go there. Either way, they should be incorporated into other shows.

- Bayley vs. Ember:
I wasn't sure what other match to put here, so I went with the one I felt was least hyped/important and something of a foregone conclusion. I'm disappointed with how they've booked Ember's chance here. She can be more than they're using her for. Honestly I say roll the dice and have Ember surprise Bayley and everyone else with a win.

-- Summerslam:
- AJ vs. Ricochet:
Ricochet winning would be a good end to the feud, but I don't want to cut The OC off this early. They win.

- Becky vs. Natalya:
Come on now. WWE 2K20 covergirl wins.

- Charlotte vs. Trish:
Charlotte wins to establish her as a top talent not just of this era, but of all eras. 


- Finn vs. Fiend:
Finn's taking time off, so he needs to be ripped apart by The Fiend here.

- Goldberg vs. Ziggler:
I don't really expect a Ziggler win would elevate him to being a consistent main eventer, and there's another Saudi show coming up, so Bill takes this one. Ziggler can move down to losing to Aleister, Apollo, and other talents with more promising futures.

- Owens vs. Shane:
Yeah Kevin takes this one, though of course Shane is going to want revenge. This will eventually be settled in Hell in a Cell.

- Kofi vs. Orton:
Orton doesn't need the title. Kofi's reign continues. The goal should be that when it's over he doesn't end up being back in the Jinder position.

- Brock vs. Seth:
No reason for Seth to take it right back. Brock does his thing. End goal is Brock vs. Braun at Survivor Series. 

More wrestling coming up.
