15 Most WTF Moments In WWE SummerSlam History

Because vulgar language, implied rape and child custody battles are what SummerSlam is all about!

From the most unexpected booking call in recent WWE history to shock heel turns, genuinely grim injuries, ridiculous match stipulations and everything in-between, these are not merely some of SummerSlam's oddest gems, but they're also some of the company's weirdest gaffes and "decisions" of all time both for better and for worse.

Let's get to it...

15. Brock Lesnar Murders John Cena (2014)

Fans expecting a knock-down, drag-out fight between Brock Lesnar and WWE World Heavyweight champ John Cena got a huge surprise when what took place wasn't so much a wrestling match as it was an absolute slaughter.

Lesnar nailed Cena with an F-5 in the opening 30 seconds of the match, and Cena's offense never recovered. Cue another 15 minutes of Lesnar effortlessly taking Cena to task, hitting an insane 16 German suplexes before finally putting him out of his misery with another F-5.

It's one of the strangest main events in recent WWE memory, if only because it was so utterly odd to see the WWE allowing Cena to look so weak. Of course, it's probably a pretty realistic account of how a Lesnar-Cena fight would go in real life, but given how lame it made Cena look, it's surprising that Brock didn't take more of a beating to even things out.

But for anyone fed up of Cena's Hulk Hogan-esque resilience, it was an absolute delight to watch.
