Hey everyone! You may know me as the guy who fantasy books
PPV’s sometimes horribly, sometimes better than WWE can. In this post, I’ll
talk about where the WWE Title should go from Wrestlemania 32 to Summerslam,
and some other context that leads up to them.
I have an awesome idea for Summerslam this year. It involves
Roman Reigns winning the title from HHH at Mania, (obviously), and holding it
until Summerslam where he defends it in an Elimination Chamber match.
The match is Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins vs Dean Ambrose vs
John Cena vs Brock Lesnar vs Cesaro. Let me explain.
Obviously, Reigns wins the title from HHH at Mania. But
Ambrose also pulls a huge upset win over Lesnar. Lesnar dominates almost the
whole match and Ambrose gets a little bit of offense in. Near the end, a ladder
is set up in the ring from earlier in the match and Lesnar is staggering to his
feet as Dean climbs the ladder. They are both covered in blood,(I know blood in
the PG era is a no-no but it's needed in this match to make it unforgettable
and to get Dean over). Ambrose jumps from the top of the ladder and does sort
of a tornado Dirty Deeds to Lesnar onto the steel steps for the pin. I realize
it really kills Lesnar's momentum as a monster heel and drawing power when he
loses, but this is one of the very very rare instances that he needs to lose
clean. Ambrose needs to be established as the top babyface. Plus, Ambrose has
only had 4 PPV wins since splitting from the Shield in June 2014.
Reigns wins the title from HHH at Mania, and the whole
roster comes out to celebrate. I won't describe what happens in the actual
match because there are some big surprises and I'll book the match in my
"How WWE Should Book Wrestlemania 32" post the day before WM. Fans
boo him out of the building but the best is yet to come. The superstars hoist
Reigns up on their shoulders as he celebrates and poses for the crowd and holds
up the title. The celebration goes for a couple minutes with confetti
everywhere and fireworks, and everyone goes to the sides of the ring but
Ambrose stays in the middle with Reigns, and also in the middle is Seth
Rollins, who probably won't still be on crutches by this time, but has the
crutches just to sell he's still injured. Seth will likely be at WM. Even if
you're injured, you have to at least be backstage for WM, so Seth was, along
with other legends that appeared throughout the night. Seth, Dean and Roman do
the shield pose with their fists together in the center of the ring just for
old times sake and to make the moment even better, and possibly for a glimpse
of things to come. Seth hugs Roman, and goes to leave and Roman and Ambrose are
left in the ring now. Ambrose hugs him and Reigns goes to pose for the fans and
Ambrose hits Reigns with a steel chair from behind. Ambrose beats the hell
outta Reigns and holds up the title as WM ends.
The next night on Raw, Ambrose explains his actions. He says
that he's gotten nowhere since he's split from the shield. He's had opportunity
after opportunity to be big but he's been screwed every time. Ambrose says he
thought he an Reigns were brothers, that they could trust each other. After
pulling one of the biggest upset wins in WM history last night after defeating
Lesnar, Ambrose said he was on a roll, and he's not going to let his momentum
from that win be squashed by having Reigns outshine him again. He says he WILL
become the WWE Champ and will dominate the company. Reigns and Ambrose would
feud on an off
until the Summerslam match. Reigns would come out and
challenge Ambrose to a match at Extreme Rules. Reigns would come out during the
Ambrose promo and they would exchange heated words and brawl and the locker
room would have to separate them. On that Raw there would be a beat the clock
challenge between Ambrose and Reigns and the winner would pick a stipulation
for their match at Extreme Rules. Roman Reigns vs Dolph Ziggler and Dean
Ambrose vs Neville would be the matches. Ambrose vs Neville would happen at
10:00 and Ambrose would destroy Neville. Ambrose hits dirty deeds on Neville
for the win in a good match but Ambrose dominates and wins in about 5:20.
Reigns vs Ziggler is the main event and Reigns is dominating too, but Ziggler
won't stay down. Reigns starts getting frustrated and it's getting close to the
5:20 limit. Reigns hits a superman punch and spear on Ziggler and it's about
5:10 into the match. 10 seconds remain until Reigns wins the challenge. Reigns
goes for the pin at 5:14 and Reigns is about to win over Ambrose by about 3
seconds but before the 3 is counted Ambrose runs in with a chair and hits
Ziggler first so that Ziggler wins. If he hits Reigns first, Reigns would win
under his time, so Ambrose can actually be smart and hit Ziggler first then
focus on Reigns. And also because Ambrose doesn't give a sh*t about ANYONE.
Ambrose beats Reigns down with a chair and throws him out of the ring and puts
him on the announce table. The crowd is hot and Ambrose looks at the crowd and
looks at under the ring. Ambrose goes under the ring and pulls out a ladder to
a huge pop. Ambrose sets up the ladder and grabs a mic and climbs up with it.
Ambrose cuts a short promo that goes something like this:"Sorry Roman,
bud, but you should've known that I'm Dean godamn Ambrose; and I don't play by
the rules. Since I bashed Dolph Ziggler's faced in with a steel chair, and then
I beat your sorry ass all around ringside, and well, since I appear to be on a
ladder about to crash your body through that table, why don't we have a good
old fashioned ladder match at Extreme Rules for your precious
championship!?" The crowd pops. Dean continues and says;"Why don't we
give this crowd here tonight a little preview of whats to come when I go
EXTREME on your ass?!" Ambrose drops the mic onto the ground, and does a
giant elbow drop from the top of the ladder, crashing through Reigns and the
announce table as the crowd chants "Holy shit!". Ambrose's music
plays as he stumbles to his feet and stands on top of Roman and holds up the
title and then holds up the title and insults the fans and Reigns as Raw goes
off the air.
Extreme Rules comes, and Reigns just barely retains in an
awesome match.
At Payback, they have a rematch. Reigns vs Ambrose in a 2/3
Falls match for the WWE Title. Ambrose wins the first fall, and Reigns wins the
second, and then Ambrose clocks Reigns with a 2X4 and Reigns retains by DQ.
Obviously Ambrose wouldn't win the title here, and he can't lose clean. At this
point, Ambrose is a no nonsense heel who doesn't care about anyone. He lost it
at this point. He doesn't even care about the WWE title at that moment; he just
wants to beat the hell out of Reigns. Ambrose beats down Reigns to end the
show.
At Money In The Bank, Ambrose wins the MITB briefcase and
and Reigns defends the title against Kevin Owens. Reigns and Owens destroy each
other the whole match in what is hopefully at MOTY candidate, (since it's
Reigns vs Kevin goddamn Owens, and match that would be incredible). Reigns hits
spears and superman punches on Owens, and Owens hits a ton of high flying moves
and dives and PUP's on Reigns. At the end of the match, Owens goes for a Pop Up
Powerbomb and Reigns jumps over Owens and pushes him into the corner and rolls
him up for the win. After the match, Owens is pissed and low blows Reigns and
gives him a PUP and leaves. Reigns is injured, and laying in the ring, bruised
and battered from the match. Ambrose's music hits and he runs down to cash in
his newly won MITB briefcase on Reigns but before the bell rings Reigns
delivers a giant spear to Ambrose. Reigns stands tall over Ambrose with the
title to end MITB. Earlier in the night, though in the MITB match, which
consisted of Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Neville, AJ Styles, Chris Jericho, Tyler
Breeze and Kofi Kingston, was won by Sami Zayn. Sami won when he and Owens were
both on separate ladders and they were fighting each other off the ladder to
get the briefcase and Sami did a Helluva Kick-Superkick looking move and Owens
fell off the ladder through another ladder set up between the announce table
and ring. Sami Zayn is Mr. MITB, and that would play out later in the year.
At Battleground, it's Ambrose vs Reigns vs Owens vs the
returning Brock Lesnar in a giant Fatal Fourway for the WWE Title. After an
awesome match, Lesnar and Owens down on the outside Ambrose and Reigns are left
on opposite sides of the ring, looking to go at it one more time. Reigns goes
to get Owens and Lesnar, thinking Ambrose is following, but Ambrose turns him
around and hits him with Dirty Deeds. Ambrose is about to win the title, and
looks to pin him, but Ambrose isn’t done. Ambrose backs into the corner and
mocks Reigns by cocking his fist and slamming it into the ground like Reigns
does. Ambrose is about to give Reigns a taste of his own medicine with his
finisher and he runs at Reigns to spear him but Owens rolls back in the ring
and catches Ambrose for a Pop Up Powerbomb. Owens throws Reigns out of the ring
so he can’t break up the pin, and goes to pin Ambrose to win the WWE World
Title when suddenly Randy Orton’s music hits. Owens shoots up and Orton comes
walking down to the ring, very slowly. Owens and Orton have a staredown and
Reigns gets back in the ring to Superman Punch Orton and Owens falls back into
an RKO. Orton beats up Owens at ringside and they brawl into the crowd. Randy
Orton is in serious need of a reboot. He’s old news now. We’ve seen pretty much
everything he has to offer. So, let’s freshen him up. I think his gimmick
should be sort of the “Indie Killer”. He used to be the legend killer, getting
rid of any old timers in his way that were stealing his spotlight. Now Heel
Randy Orton has returned, and he’s getting rid of any indies that thought they
could just come on in to WWE and steal his spotlight and be the “next big
thing”. And his first target, was Kevin Owens. It would be Orton vs Owens at
Summerslam, in a No.1 Contendership Match for the WWE World Title. Owens would
win, and go on to face Rollins, who would win the Chamber match, at Night Of
Champions, in what would be a long, amazing, rivalry.
Now, back to the match. Reigns and Ambrose are trying to
plan out what to do after the assault on Kevin Owens by the returning “Indie
Killer” Randy Orton. They’re on the ground, exhausted, and trading blows. They
get up and keep punching each other and the crowd gets hot but suddenly Lesnar
is back in the ring with a steel chair. He throws Ambrose and Reigns around
like ragdolls, hitting them with German Suplex after German Suplex. We get kind
of a flashback to Fast Lane, where the 3 men fought. Lesnar stalks Ambrose. He
still wants revenge after Ambrose defeated him at Wrestlemania. Lesnar rolls
out of the ring and gets a table from under the ring to a big pop. He slides it
into the ring and sets it up. Lesnar stalks Ambrose and waits for him to get up
for an F-5 through the table to end the match. Lesnar gets Ambrose up on his
shoulders and turns around only to be met with a Giant Double European Uppercut
to Lesnar with Ambrose on his shoulders by the returning Swiss Superman,
Cesaro! The crowd explodes for Cesaro’s return and he’s taking Lesnar and
Reigns and Ambrose all on a ride on the Uppercut Train. Cesaro would cut a
promo the next night on Raw saying that he’s always been held back. He’s the
best thing WWE has to offer today and the crowd supported that fact by getting
him to where he is now. He says he’s not gonna stop and he says defeating Brock
Lesnar would be the proving ground and only the beginning. Cesaro and Lesnar
would eventually have a match at Hell In A Cell inside the cell. Cesaro’s
biggest match of his career. Lesnar vs Wyatt would happen at the Rumble, since
WWE seems to really want that to happen, and at Wrestlemania 33 it would be
Lesnar vs Owens. Cesaro beats everyone down and then John Cena’s music hits.
The crowd likely chants John Cena sucks. Cena runs in and AA’s Cesaro, and
beats everyone down. He AA’s Lesnar through the table he set up and makes his
comeback on Ambrose, giving him the Five Knuckle Shuffle and all that. Cena and
Reigns have a staredown. Cena and Reigns start going at it, and Cena delivers a
Springboard Stunner to Reigns. Cena is about to AA Reigns when the final man
makes his return for the night. In what is aided by possibly one of the biggest
pops in history, Seth Freakin Rollins’s music hits and he runs down to the ring
in his white gear from Summerslam and Night of Champions. Rollins cleans house
and everyone hits their finishers on each other. The crowd is on their feet for
Rollins. Cena AA’s Cesaro, then Lesnar F-5’s Cena, Ambrose kicks Lesnar in the
gut for a Dirty Deeds, Reigns superman punches Ambrose and Ambrose falls into
the ropes and is going for a Rebound Lariat but Reigns ducks and Ambrose
springs from the ropes and Reigns nails him with a Spear. Reigns does his pose
and says “Ooohh Ahhhh!” but Seth is there and spins Roman around into a
Pedigree. Seth isn’t done yet. Reigns is slowly getting up, and finally, Seth
Rollins, hits a Curb Stomp on Roman Reigns. The match never actually ended, but
no one even realizes with all the excitement that happened. Reigns technically
retains, obviously, but the show ends with all the injured superstars finally
back, and Battleground goes off the air with Seth Rollins once again standing
tall, holding the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
So we already have two big Summerslam matches; Kevin Owens
vs Randy Orton in a Street Fight for a shot at the WWE World Title, and an
Elimination Chamber match which consists of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Dean
Ambrose, Cesaro, Brock Lesnar, and John Cena. Also, there would be Undertaker
vs Finn Balor, which I’ll explain in my “How WWE Should Book Wrestlemania 32
post” that I’ll explain below, but that match isn’t related to this scenario.
Since Seth returned as a babyface that would mean he is
disbanded from the authority, but since Wrestlemania Dean Ambrose has been the
authority’s guy, or at least, their second guy. I will post a “How WWE Should
Book Wrestlemania 32” post the day before that, explaining what that means.
Let’s just say there’s a big swerve in Shane-Taker. You might be saying, “So Shane lost? Why
would the Authority still be on TV? They’re so boring! This sucks!” Calm down.
If you read my fantasy booking of WM, I bet you’ll enjoy the “New Authority”.
The next day there is breaking news on WWE.com that The
Authority will kick off Raw with a huge announcement for Summerslam, (which is
that the Elimination Chamber will make its return, and that Reigns will defend
the WWE Title inside it) and to address Seth Rollins and all the other returns.
There are qualifying matches for the Chamber throughout the night. Seth Rollins
faces Neville, John Cena faces Dolph Ziggler, Ambrose faces Luke Harper, Cesaro
faces AJ Styles,(I know, Cesaro vs AJ Styles shouldn’t be wasted on Raw, but a
feud between them would begin at Survivor Series), and for the first time in 12
years, the next week on Raw Brock Lesnar is announced to wrestle for his spot
in the Elimination Chamber match, and it is the main event of the next week’s
Raw and it is an Open Challenge. Who
accepts the open challenge? I would say Kevin Owens, but that match needs to be
saved for a big PPV, like WM33. The man that answers the challenge is Mr. Money
in the Bank, Sami Zayn. The match goes about 30 minutes and is incredible.
Lesnar finally pins Sami with two F-5s. The match at Summerslam happens and is
hopefully incredible with lots of awesome spots and is a memorable match and
MOTY candidate. I won’t go through the whole match, but the last three are
Ambrose, Reigns and Rollins in the Summerslam Chamber match. A mini Shield
Triple Threat, but at Summerslam, inside Elimination Chamber, and for the WWE
World Title. Rollins does a Phoneix Splash off a pod to Ambrose to eliminate
him, and the final two are Rollins and Reigns. The crowd is on their feet.
Rollins and Reigns fight for a couple minutes and Reigns hits a Superman Punch
on Rollins to thunderous boos, assuming the fans still hate Reigns at this
point in time. Reigns goes for a Spear on Rollins and everyone is pissed
because it looks like Reigns will retain but Rollins delivers a massive Superkick
to Reigns, and Reigns is bent over, and Rollins Curb Stomps him. Rollins
delivers a second Phoneix Splash off a pod to Reigns to become the new,
rightful, reigning, defending, undisputed, WWE Heavyweight Champion of the
world. At Night of Champions, Owens uses his No.1 Contendership clause and it
is Rollins vs Owens in what is likely an incredible match. I won’t go any
further than that, though.
Welp, that was incredibly long. I doubt any of you will want
to read this whole thing, but it’s worth it. If this all happened on TV, WWE
would become must see again. Please tell me your thoughts on this 25732 page
essay, and tell me if you would like to see all this.
Thank you so much for reading this, if you did, and be sure
to catch my “How WWE Should Book NXT Takeover: Dallas” and “How WWE Should Book
Wrestlemania 32” posts the day before each show!
