WWE SummerSlam 2017: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best

By Jack Pooley / August 23, 2017

4. U.S. Title: AJ Styles (c) Vs. Kevin Owens

WWE.com

Result: Styles blasts Owens with the Styles Clash to retain the strap (17:20).

Rating: Shane McMahon didn't really need to be involved here as a special referee, but he at least added a little more interest to yet another AJ/Owens match, even if the excessive knockout spots seemed pretty silly, clumsy and forced at times.

Still, Owens constantly hand-wringing about McMahon's officiating was absolutely hilarious, and the pace remained intense throughout. Not anywhere near their best work together by any means, and Shane bumped way too much to not be distracting, but by this PPV's standards it was really, really solid work all around. 7/10
