4 Ups and 4 Downs From SummerSlam 2018

#8.Down: Inconclusive finishes

Joe really made things personal at SummerSlam.

The part that irritated me the most about SummerSlam was the indecisive finishes. The New Day Vs Bludgeon Brothers ended in a disqualification victory for the New Day. Samoa Joe Vs AJ Styles ended in a disqualification victory for Joe after AJ blew a gasket and viciously attacked Joe with a chair. Disqualification finishes are done on weekly television to further intensify feuds, not at a massive event like SummerSlam.

WWE should have had definite winners at the end of every match at a mega pay-per-view. Fans were disappointed at the lazy booking of the finish of Joe Vs Styles. The finish ruined an incredible match-up. The same can be said about the New Day vs Bludgeon Brothers. SummerSlam marks the place where marquee feuds come to an end in convincing and definite fashion, not in inconclusive fashion like disqualification or count-out victories.
