I think the big news from TNA is Ron Killings and Monty Brown both quit.
Supposedly Killing is headed to Smackdown to be apart of a reunited Too Cool...minus Rikishi and Monty Brown is also being talked to about being signed.

WoW...I hope the WWE used Monty Brown in a good way...I kinda see him headed right for a feud with Bobby Lashley or Batista...which IMO would be good to see...as I'm also hoping for a Lashley/Batista match up just to see which one is more powerful, which I know the wwe will have Batista to come out on top.
As far as Killings go, I think the Too Cool stint is stale. Scotty needs a change of gimmick as it's not working for him, he's now being used as a jobber, which IMO thats where he fits lol....
But Killings needs to shy away from the Too Cool stint and work solo.

OK Mr Smarty pants how can Ron Killings leave TNA when he signed a two year deal!!!!!!!!
Explain that as WWE would hjave to buy out the contract so for me it's BS that Too COol is going to be reuinted and BTW if you didn't know the original member was Grand Master Sexay aka Brian Christopher.

Wow... Edge AND Booker T are still the champs?!
Damn. I honestly didn't think that'd happen. Especially Edge. But all is right with the world for another month or so!

Summerslam wasn't half bad. Chavo vs. Rey was decent. Biggest surprise out of it was Rey getting booed so much. Sabu vs. Big Show was nothing much at all. I don't think they was allowed to really go at it due to Foley and Flair's epic battle which was to come. Booker T and Edge had a nice, but predictable interaction. They made a bet but they both won...so the bet was meaningless. Booker bet Edge he would lose the title to Cena. If he did Edge had to go to Smackdown and bow to Booker and kiss his feet. If Booker lost he had to come to RAW and be Edge's personal man servant. Hogan vs. Orton was what it was. They did a small twist with Orton getting the three count only for the ref to change his mind a few seconds later that Hogan's foot was on the rope. He hulked up and won. I did think Hogan was going to lose when the match first started as they wouldn't shut up about his knee and with him at his age he would have a lot to overcome. At some point there was a rather pointless diva segment. Foley vs. Flair was brutal and match of the night. Had an almost clever ending. Batista vs. Booker T really never got going. I figured it would be half decent. I am starting to lose my liking for Batista. He mega botched his power bomb. Other backstage segments include Vince, Shane, and Armando talking about resources and Umage. DX was show talking to someone backstage saying Umaga is considered the best monster in the WWE. Duh...who were they talking to.  Dx vs Vince and Shane wasn't as predictable as I thought it would be. The McMahons first sent out the Spirit Squad who got dismantled. They then sent out Ken Kennedy, Regal, and Finlay who at first got beat up, but with the aide of the Big Show they turned the tide. Eventual DX came back, out came Umaga, HBK hurt himself, Umaga got beat up by Kane, and shortly thereafter DX wins. An interesting side not is Hogan did the cDX crotch chop during his match and Triple did the Hogan earcup thing after they won. Please don't let Hogan join DX for the night. DX vs. NWO...not so bad. Cena vs. Edge had a fantastic crowd. They was all over the place for Cena. At times huge boos...while other times he got really loud "Let's Go Cena" chants. Twas strange especially considering it was his hometown. When you think about it though it is not surprising Edge won. I am sure they are saving Cena getting back the title for the next PPV that way the newly crowned champ can promote his movie with the belt.  Next PPV will most likely feature the last match of Trish and Lita respectively as they both want to try a career in acting. Lita should really know better...she is horrendous. Late night Cinemax is waiting on Trish...maybe even Lita. So far the only thing confirmed for RAW is Jeff Hardy's return and Nitro vs. Kane for the IC title. Hmmm...Umaga getting revenge? Rumour has it almost all feuds will continue. DX/McMahons, Flair/Foley, Cena/Edge. Same old, same old, yet somehow better than TNA. Sad...really really sad. |

I missed it lol I actually forgot it was on! Oh well, I doubt I missed much but I am shocked Edge retained then...guaranteed he'll lose it next time then, I am still convinced they were just trying to defy expectations and prove people wrong for the sake of it...does anyone have the on-the-fly results? I can't be arsed to look for it

Well at least his kin booker isn't as bad as King Mable that was awful  lol But to be honest i'd really wish if they'd use William Regal correctly he can main event as he is one of WWE's best technical mat wrestlers, jeez his match with benoit on velocity was one of thematches of the year, yet they seem to still hold him back with crap storylines, the burchill dress thing, the kissing booker's arse.... |

I enjoy king booker's promos. His interaction with edge cracked me up.

Summerslam was enjoyable... but Flair and Foley was amazing... it felt "real" and the ending was done so well. The best way to see a match in WWE end I've seen in years. I loved it.

Looks like it was good, but not worth £15 of my hard earned money...
