This summer I'll be looking back on each of the previous Summerslam events, one by one. Every few days I will submit a new topic until we reach 2014's edition of the 2nd biggest brand in WWE.
This thread will be for discussing.... Summerslam 2009!
Summerslam 2009 took place on August 23, 2009. It was held at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. Here are the results of the matches from this show:
0. Beth Phoenix defeated Kelly Kelly, Eve Torres, Mickie James, Layla, Gail Kim, Alicia Fox, Jillian, Melina, Rosa Mendes, Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Katie Lea Burchill, Natalya, and Maria in a 15-Diva battle royal
1. Rey Mysterio (c) defeated Dolph Ziggler in a singles match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship (12:26)
2. Montel Vontavious Porter defeated Jack Swagger in a singles match (06:22)
3. Jeri-Show (Chris Jericho and Big Show) (c) defeated Cryme Tyme (Shad Gaspard and JTG) in a tag team match for the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship (09:42)
4. Kane defeated The Great Khali (with Ranjin Singh) in a singles match (05:56)
5. D-Generation X (Triple H and Shawn Michaels) defeated The Legacy (Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase) in a tag team match (20:02)
6. Christian (c) defeated William Regal (with Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson) in a singles match for the ECW Championship (00:08)
7. Randy Orton (c) defeated John Cena in a singles match for the WWE Championship (20:44)
8. CM Punk defeated Jeff Hardy (c) in a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match for the World Heavyweight Championship (21:34)
Now, here are some discussion questions concerning the event:
What was your favorite match on this show, and why did you like it the most? What about the worst match of this show, why did you like it the least?
If you could change a few things about Summerslam 2009, what would it be and why?
You may only use wrestlers who were available at the roster at that time or make changes that could have realistically taken place in August 2009. Please keep in mind the situations going into the show such as who could actually have been pushed into a title match, or what songs existed back then if you wanted to change the show's theme music, and so forth.
You may only discuss Summerslam 2009 in this thread. The remaining Summerslam events will be getting their own retrospective threads, any posts regarding other events will be considered spam and you risk getting an infraction.
Discuss!
