| Just saw WWE's Summerslam advert, have to say i thought they missed a trick with who they put in the advert. John Cena and Rey Mysterio i do understand, Edge a bit as it's obvious he will be involved somehow with Jericho. But Jack Swagger? I know Swagger is good and has been around the main event but with no advertised match as of yet for Summerslam why is he advertised to appear?
WWE could have put Sheamus (in UK adverts) who would draw more of the UK audience to the PPV, or Bret Hart, despite him already having made the comeback in January his name would again draw older people to watching Summerslam now he is actually in a match. Hell The Great Khali could have been used to draw the Indian population a bit more. But another guy who i was very suprised above Edge to not be on the is Orton, one of the guys on a roll in WWE atm and getting huge crowd responses.
It just seems to me WWE could advertise the PPV better than they are. |

| I think the first issue regarding SummerSlam advertising to be dealt with, is the inclusion of Taker in the main picture on the SummerSlam page on wwe.com. |

I was thinking the same thing. He's also shown on the adverts here, TV and whatever else. Everytime I see a advert for Summerslam on TV, I think, "For sure Taker will return, he has to with as much as they are backing it."
I guess we will have to see what's in store tomorrow on Smackdown!, for if he does make a return, I would hope they would at least tie it in, instead of Undertaker's "Miraculous" recovery all of the sudden. |
