SummerSlam had some great moments and some not so great ones!
#1 Worst: SmackDown's main event paled in comparison

Jinder Mahal is not a main-event calibre talent yet
Yes, the superstars on Raw had a lot more freedom than Nakamura and Mahal did, but at the same time, their title match just felt like a lesser deal than the Fatal Four Way. In many ways, it proved that SmackDown Live is still the B-Show. It did not help that Mahal finished the match in much the same way as all his other matches, with the help of the Singh Brothers. It also did not help that he botched his own finishing move. The best thing about the match was Nakamura's special entrance!
We've received information that Mahal is likely to hold the championship until Hell in a Cell. This does not bode well for the WWE Universe as his matches have been, at best, quite ordinary.
