Unknown 0:00
So close you can almost taste it. What? You're just going to walk away? Time to bring the juice. Never leave a fit behind. Rip it, rip it, and bring the juice. That flavor is just out of reach. Drop the leg, Us, and bring the juice. Gee.
Sam Roberts 0:38
Oh, the hottest party of the summer is around the corner. SummerSlam season is here. I have such an affinity for SummerSlam, I have to tell you. I go back to, like, SummerSlam 91 was, like, one of the first, like, PLEs that I watched on VHS tape over and over and over and over again. SummerSlam 92 was the first live show I ever went to. I mean, SummerSlam 93, I don't think I've ever felt as patriotic as Lex Luger versus Yoko Tuna. Oh, Lex Express. Yeah, exactly. So, I mean, I love SummerSlam. SummerSlam 94 was Undertaker versus Undertaker.
Megan Morant 1:12
I heard you talking about it on the radio. The jump from 92 to 93 was wild.
Sam Roberts 1:16
It was a wild thing. It was a wild thing, but you could kind of track WWE in terms of SummerSlam. A lot of people do that with WrestleMania, but I think it's just as accurate to do it with SummerSlam. I mean, look. where Brock Lesnar won the WWE Championship for the first time. And look at where he's going to be this year.
Megan Morant 1:31
He's going to be in Hell in a Cell.
Sam Roberts 1:33
Oh, I can't wait. Megan Morant, Sam Roberts here on WWE Now. It's the SummerSlam preview show. And earlier this week, we got the full match cards. We found out everything that's going to be running on Saturday and everything that's going to be running on Sunday. And I love that they dropped these two match cards early because it just allowed, they fueled. the wild speculation in terms of, I don't know, it just, I think two things. Like it changes the dynamic of what's taking place when. Yes. And also when you see it there on paper, it makes it all so real, doesn't it?
Megan Morant 2:11
Yeah, and there was part of me that was just waiting to see what day that Brock-Oba match was going to land on because I thought there was certainly a world where that could be a main event of one of the nights of SummerSlam.
Sam Roberts 2:24
Let's take a look at the card. It still is active. Absolutely a world where that could happen. I mean, look at all these matches. I mean, we'll talk about them. Like you said, Brock and Oba. You got Cody and Punk. I mean, Nick Aldis and Gunther has become a phenomenon.
Megan Morant 2:38
Huge. Sandy Zane and Finn Balor.
Sam Roberts 2:40
That's become something tremendous.
Megan Morant 2:43
Oh, and then the blockbuster of all blockbusters. I know. The marquee match of all of the Summer Slams.
Sam Roberts 2:49
All the Summer Slams.
Megan Morant 2:50
Dan Housen and Dominic Mysterio.
Sam Roberts 2:51
I mean, I can't call that one. I mean, we're going to discuss it. And then, of course, Roman and Seth, which I think had the marquee before it was taken by Dominic Mysterio and Dan Housen.
Megan Morant 3:03
And you got your Judgment Day purple on today.
Sam Roberts 3:06
It's not a coincidence. I did it on purpose. Let's get in. Let's get into what these shows are going to look like. So getting in to SummerSlam Saturday, night one of SummerSlam, one of the matches that was made on Friday on SmackDown is the six women's tag team match. Brie Bella, Paige, and a returning Nikki Bella. We haven't seen her compete in the ring since before WrestleMania versus all of Of fatal influence. And look, I think that this has the potential to be an incredible breakout night for fatal influence. Of course. But at the same time, you're not talking about a set of Bella Twins and Paige that have been sitting around WWE for years. You're talking about people who are still on this quest to kind of show the audience how they fit into the current crop of,
Sam Roberts 4:07
Of women in the WWE. I think they have just as much to prove.
Megan Morant 4:10
This is not a nostalgia run. No. For the Bella Twins and Paige. But then I also like that JC Jane put out the tweet on social media. What'd she say? And she said, 12-year-old me is freaking out, but current me is going to kick their butts.
Unknown 4:26
Oh.
Megan Morant 4:26
And I think that's exactly what JC Jane has done ever since she's arrived on the main roster. I mean, you remember the reaction she got when she debuted on SmackDown? Loud. Very loud.
Georgie Crawford 4:36
Yes.
Megan Morant 4:36
Not a happy loud, but a loud sound. And Fatal Influence has left a mark.
