John Cena and Roman Reigns delivered Final SummerSlam messages
John Cena and Roman Reigns delivered Final SummerSlam messages
Reigns and Cena faced off in the ring to close the show. Reigns said Cena had said “a lot of dumb stuff” last week and it was great that he fired up the fans, but that he wouldn’t allow Cena to lie to them. Reigns asked Paul Heyman to name the last time he’d lost a match, to which Heyman said no one had ever beaten “this” Roman Reigns.
Cena said people who thought he was just showing up to lose before disappearing to film a movie were right that he had a movie to film, but that they were dead wrong that he wouldn’t leave Reigns as a shell of himself without a title. Cena told Reigns that the second he failed to be perfect, the impossible would become possible and he would break the all-time record for most world championships. Reigns then closed things out by saying he’d either leave SummerSlam as world champion or he’d leave the WWE forever. Reigns then tried to attack before Cena rolled him up for three seconds before sliding out of the ring.
In the other major storyline of the night, Edge opened the show with an in-ring promo, addressing SummerSlam opponent Seth Rollins. Edge said that he has been pushed to a dark place by Rollins’ threats and targeting of his family. He also said that he likes being forced to that dark place and would look to not beat, but instead break, Rollins at SummerSlam. Rollins responded later in the show, saying he knew Edge didn’t actually still have it in him to go to the “dark place.” At that point, Edge’s music from when he was in The Brood in the late 1990s hit and a dark goop fell on the ring, covering Rollins, which was a signature of The Brood, except the group used “blood” during their brief run.
Cena and Reigns basically ran through the previous week’s promo once again, but Reigns’ new stipulation and giving Cena a post-promo roll-up to prove a point was fun enough. And it’s a little bit of extra fun that Cena proved his point with a quick pin instead of the standard “big move.” The stuff with Edge and Rollins was fun for the sake of the callback to an often overlooked period in Edge’s career, though a lot of the punch was lost when WWE had to settle for a “Broodbath” instead of a “bloodbath.” Still, few people on the roster can deliver a promo with the intensity of Edge.
