35. Thumbs Up

WWE showed off loads of fans going wild during the opening hype vignette, but one gent in particular caught the eye. Look at the base of that arrow to see some dude casually giving a thumbs up as everyone around him goes nuts.

Love it.

34. This Glorious Shot

This shot would bring tears to a glass eye.

WWE's opening view of SummerSlam's huge crowd was reminiscent of scenes at WrestleMania III in 1987. Or, if you want to stick with the pay-per-view's theme, maybe it looked more like SummerSlam 1992 in London's Wembley Stadium.

Whatever floats your boat, it was cool to see. There was a time when big crowds like this seemed so, so far away.

33. A Jinder Mahal Sign!

You don't see too many Jinder Mahal signs at WWE events, so this one had to get a mention. It also gets bonus points for suggesting that Jinder poach Brie Bella's 'Brie Mode' routine and call it 'Maharaja Mode'. This could become a thing if Mahal ever goes babyface.

If being the key word there.
