A few hours ago, the events of the highly anticipated summer event, WWE SummerSlam were finalized with high satisfaction of the WWE Universe globally. It was the first Pay-Per-View after the retirement of the legendary Vince McMahon. In addition, it was the first one under the full creative power of Triple H.

The emotions of the fans towards the event passed through several ups and downs. As there was a lack of ticket sales a few weeks before the show, the fans were not optimistic about the expected performance of the contests. Moreover, the booking of the matches was not good enough.

However, the feelings of the fans totally shifted last week after the countless reports about Triple H plans for the SummerSlam, and the quality of the performed matches.
Tough challenges could face The Game and could form some sort of problematic situation such as the promotion's titles, cashing the Money in the Bank, and the future of the ongoing scripts. So, the way the events of the show went could deeply reflect Triple H's efforts in correcting the disappointing scripts and TV shows the promotion aired.

The show opened with RAW Women's Title Match between Becky Lynch and the champion Bianca Blair. Although it was expected that Blair would win due to her shameful loss to Lynch last SummerSlam, in addition, Blair would have somehow a long title reign.

Both stars performed one of their highest-represented matches and reflected a deep sense of harmony and chemistry. Despite the presence of a few mistakes, the match was very good.

After the match, three top stars made their return to WWE which reflected Triple H's power in the promotion. The three stars were Bayley, Dakota Kai, and Io Shirai. The return of those stars would retain WWE Women's pision's power, and high-quality performance once again. The scene of the three stars in the arena drove the fans for establishing a "thank you Triple H" hashtag.

In addition, the face-turn of Lynch would play a vital role in Lynch's scripts, and it was really requested by the fans.

Next came a highly anticipated match which was Logan Paul vs. The Miz. The Miz entered the arena with his wife Maryse and supporter Ciampa.
Ciampa's appearance was really the best since calling him in the main roaster of the WWE. The attitude of Ciampa deeply resonated with his applauded heel attitude in the NXT, so it seemed that Ciampa's situation will be corrected and re-framed which satisfied the majority of the fans.
The appearance of AJ Styles against Ciampa was really praised by the fans in the arena.

Logan Paul performed in breathtaking spots during the match, and he showed his really good potential for earning the spot he had in the WWE, another "thank you Triple H."

After that came a real problem that was left to Triple H to handle, Theory! Theory is one of the future faces of the promotion, but McMahon pushed the rising star in a very very short time which raise the concerns of the WWE Universe.
Theory won the briefcase of the Money in the Bank to be the youngest Mr. Money in the Bank and he can cash-in the briefcase at in any time and win the Undisputed WWE Universe. Capturing the titles from the +700-day champion will not be accepted by the fans. So, there was an expectation that Theory's push will slow down a little bit by the administration to form his building.

So, it was good to see Bobby Lashley retain his US title against Theory in a short match. However, the future of Lashley is still blurry.

Shortly, the contest between The Judgement Day and the Mysterios took place. Judgement Day is also one of the problems in the promotion as the future of the stable was negatively impacted by the creative dispute between Edge and former creative heads.
https://twitter.com/thekatybacon/status/1553612444722946049?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Overall, the match was really good, and both teams showed good harmony and nice storytelling during the contest. Hopefully, the victory of the Mysterios could be a sign of the finishing of this feud.

During the match, another shocking return was made as Edge returned with a developed form of his epic Brood gimmick. The photos reflected that this Brood is coming from the inferno! which was asserted by Michael Cole! A third "thank you Triple H."

The contest was followed by another very good match which is Pat McAfee vs. Happy Corban. McAfee is one of the top faces in SmackDown as a commentator, but his match in the latest WrestleMania against Theory was a very good one, and all WWE Universe praised the match. So, the professional, and the very good performance shown by both stars was what the fans loved to see.
https://twitter.com/TimmyBuddy/status/1553561175740231681?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
The storytelling between both stars and the transformation of their relationship from being teammates to enemies was beautifully scripted in the match, in addition, the commentary of Cole enriched the presence of the match's storytelling.

Next comes two of the less performed matches of the night! Starting with The Usos vs. the Street Profits for the Undisputed Tag Team Championships with the presence of WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarret.
Although the victory of the Street Profits was called by the fans, The Usos retained in one of the worst tag-team matches between both teams.
https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1553696979988914182?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Honestly, the tag team pision in the promotion needed a lot of work, and building, so, the presence of the titles with the Usos could be a somehow safe solution until the building of another team who deserves to catch the titles.
https://twitter.com/ProWFinesse/status/1553573901451534336?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Next came SmackDown Women's Title contest between Ronda Rousey, and the champion Liv Morgan. It was a horrible match with a bad finishing, but it was also expected that Morgan would retain! The only important thing about this match was the heel turn of Rousey.
https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1553573979780169728?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Finally came the best contest of the night! Last Man Standing Match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title between Roman Reigns, and Brock Lesnar.
https://twitter.com/aaronrift/status/1553717539477372928?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Both stars' previous contest was disappointing somehow, but this one was the greatest of their latest three matches! The storytelling of the match was very good. In addition, the style of the match was between the PG style and the expected TV-14 turn.
https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1553585406452588544?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Lesnar was absolutely the star of the night despite his loss, but Reigns' shape and performance were lesser than expected. Lesnar literary dicked himself hard for giving the fans the greatest levels of enjoyment.
The spots of the farm tractor, and the ring was the most trending one in the night!
https://twitter.com/WrestleOps/status/1553583689841483776?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
After the show, Lesnar climbed to the ring and was greeted by all audience in the arena. Another "thank you Triple H."
https://twitter.com/ryansatin/status/1553587651009183747?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Finally, the events of the night were really satisfying for the fans as a beginning of a new era in the WWE.
It is worthy to mention that a scheduled match for Seth Rollins was canceled due to Riddle's injury, however, both stars appeared in a short segment as the fans took social media and called for singing Rollins intro which was achieved!
https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1553571272382095361?s=20&t=CkdoJrsYJfkdtA_mjNjeIw
Another fabulous spot in the night is the promo of Drew McIntyre who will have a title shot in WWE Clash of the Castle in Wales. So, his presence played a good role in the upcoming feud.
