10 Big Questions From WWE SummerSlam 2015

Was it smart to make Jon Stewart a factor in the WWE Title match?

The biggest WWE event of the summer is over and SummerSlam should be considered a success although it was also a very controversial show due to the endings of the two biggest matches. It's not easy to put on a four hour show, nor is it easy to come up with ten different finishes to matches that are going to satisfy all WWE fans. Just because a major match takes place at a big event like SummerSlam doesn't mean it has to have a clean finish. WWE is all about looking ahead the next show. Jon Stewart did a good job as the host of the show, but seeing him do a promo with Mick Foley to start it made it feel like an episode of Raw. What wasn't expected later on was Stewart becoming the deciding factor in the WWE Title match. There wasn't a match of the year contender and it wasn't as good as NXT Takeover Brooklyn one night earlier, but it was still an above average PPV event that had a lot of moments fans will remember for a long time. The idea behind this feature is to discuss most of the booking decisions that happened. It's easy to say "this match was great" or "that match sucked" so this is case of considering what WWE did in terms of the creative team and trying to make sense of it all. Since there were ten matches, there will be one question about each match as well as plenty of opinions about the matches as well.
