WWE SummerSlam 2016: 10 Awesome Moments
10. Sheamus & Cesaro Get Given Time
Sheamus
and Cesaro have become quite familiar with one another since the WWE
Draft put both on Monday Night Raw. At first, it looked like the
former may actually be slightly forgotten about as management shone
the spotlight on others, but the 'Best Of 7 Series' idea is a fine
use of the Irishman.
It would all have been for nothing had things not kicked off in fine fashion at SummerSlam. Ironically, those in charge decided to put the first bout in the series on the Kickoff portion of the show, something that could have been a death knell for selling the importance of the concept. Thankfully, both men were handed a load of time to work with, eating up virtually the entire last half hour of the pre-show.
This was awesome to see, because a short match would have killed the 'Best Of 7' idea before it really had the chance to gain momentum. Those complaining about the Kickoff decision will likely feel better once the series develops, it's surely ending on pay-per-view sometime over the next few months.
