Sleep with both eyes open motherfucker!
If its not Triple H or Styles. Here is your options if they want heels:
1. Bray Wyatt
2. Del Rio
3. Baron Corbin
If they want to make a match to put a new talent in the Main Event then they can do Kalisto or Apollo Crews.
edit: The sad thing is a suicide dive was the beginning of the end for Bryan's career.

Big-E and Sasha's have the worst dives because they always hurt themselves more then the opponent. Big-E might have all that muscle to cushion him, but Sasha is tiny so I cringe each time she does it.
I'd say Roman has a good dive because he doesn't use it in every single match so it doesn't bother me as it isn't done repeatedly.

I expect people will get angry when they realize that you can't have a debuting wrestler go over Roman every week and you can't have a title change hands unexpectedly every week.

This frame of mind makes no sense, Smackdown is also Vince's show and he wants to make money
why would vince sabotage his own show?
hint:
he wouldn't

The problem is that they have exactly 1 guy on the roster who is over enough to make a big main event match at SummerSlam a big attraction and it's Styles. You can wrangle Styles into the match if you can somehow find something for Cena to do for a month and then somehow get Cena involved again once the belt is in play because there's still something in the Cena-Styles well that they'd waste if they just dumped the angle.
I wouldn't be surprised if they go the "tournament" route to get Styles into that title feud though.
It's not even that.
They had more wrestling than they've had on the program in a while, and it was good wrestling. They actually made Strowman and Nia Jax look good in their new debuts. The post match interviews being back are a nice touch.
I actually like all the things they did.

I wish NBA2K16 had a mode where it played like NBA Jam. A "not garbage" mode if yoi will.

I don't really like the idea of a second triple threat after he just did a triple threat for the title, but I guess its a way to get the title on Styles without Cena eating the pin and ending the feud.
They have these matches most likely for Summerslam:
Finn vs Seth
Styles vs Cena
Charlotte vs Sasha
New Day vs The Club
Orton vs Brock
With these they probably think Ambrose doesn't need someone big to face him.
I'd hotshot the AJ Cena feud tonight so it frees Cena up to bring someone else up with him and AJ can move to the title picture. I don't think anyone else on that Smackdown roster can throw into a random main event position with Ambrose or Styles. Cenas gotta elevate...again.
Alberto Del Rio or Ziggler. Yeah, I know, that sucks.

I agree. I was upset when Big E did the dive at Battleground. He landed so bad.

Ambrose is the Dimensional Champion, he has to have a "big match" of some kind and SummerSlam is one of the 5 hour shows that gets 2 lead-in prelim matches and 11 matches.
I actually do kind of like the idea of a triple threat with Dean and Styles and Cena the more I think about it. Cena vs. anyone but Styles seems dumb, but nobody else on the roster makes any sense in the title picture.
For some reason I expect Becky and Carmella to team up against Alexa and Natalya on the pre-show. I can just sense that match existing.

I almost think they gotta bring in someone for Ambrose. But who?

But Wyatt is on a winning streak. He defeated the Double-U Double-U E World Tag Team Champions this past Sunday.

They really should have sent Owens to Smackdown. I feel like the roster of people who belong in the main title picture is pretty small. Ambrose, Styles, Cena, and ?
Although Ambrose v Owens has happened almost as many times as Owens v Zayn
Let them fight!

At this point they should have Steph trade Roman to SmackDown for prospects + cash considerations.
I'm okay with Bray being elevated to a legit main eventer. The fact that they cut his faction down to just himself + a heater does suggest that maybe that's the plan.

Who is this in the gif? I've been wondering.
Wrong. She emotes a crazy amount.
they always have randomly good raws like this once in a while
then it's back to shit for another 5 months
lets wait and see. if we get a couple of weeks of consistent, decent shows, that would be something to get excited about.

Fixed correctly.
I'm hopeful. This actually feels different.....new even.

Getting clean wins over Rollins and Reigns and then being in the 4th or 5th most important match at Summerslam feels like a big step back for Dean though. Wyatt needs to be rebuilt a little bit before a feud with him feels like a big deal again not to mention it was awful the first time around.

There's nothing Ambrose can do to help feeling like his match isn't important unless they put Cena and/or Styles in it. The more I think about it the more its the way to go, but you're pretty much conceding the SD brand has 3 guys and a bunch of midcard garbage that way.
Roman should turn heel and demolish Sami Zayn at SummerSlam to get his heat back.

Thank you!
But Smackdown really does have basically only 4 main eventers.
Ambrose, Styles, Cena, and Orton.
I wonder what is even going to be the last match of SummerSlam. It probably won't be Rollins vs Balor or Lesnar vs Orton.

It's going to be Lesnar v. Orton because its an interpromotional match that doesn't put one brand over the other.
