Summerslam is one of the Big 4 PPVs of the WWE. It is dubbed as the 'Biggest Party of the Summer'. Unfortunately, this year's Summerslam match card has turned out to be quite underwhelming. Bad booking has hindered the card quality, with not much to hook in viewers.

While some matches are intriguing, they are sure to be let down by questionable booking. Let's take a look at some of the decisions which may not please us but are most probable to take place.
#1. Ronda Rousey loses
Ronda Rousey has been on absolute tear ever since her debut at this year's Wrestlemania. Well,so has been Alexa Bliss. Little Miss Bliss has been experiencing the push of a lifetime, and it wouldn't be beyond WWE to book a screwy finish to prolong this feud. While this worked when Alexa cashed in her MITB contract, there is no reason why ronda should be kept away from the title.
Ronda Rousey needs no title to remain relevant, but if a legitimate badass is squaring off against Alexa Bliss, Bliss must lose to ensure logical progression.
#2. Samoa Joe loses
Samoa Joe has been exemplary on Tuesday nights. The intensity that he brings to the product is unparalleled. He is awesome on the mic and deadly in the ring. A World Championship victory is long overdue for him.
On the other hand, Styles has been a perfect champion. He has successfully defended his title countless times, having great matches with everyone. He has come to a point where there is no credible opponent left for him, with Randy Orton and other stars engaged in the US title picture. It's time he does the honours for Joe.
#3. Charlotte wins the title
The internet exploded when Becky Lynch got a championship opportunity after so long. But then Charlotte returned and inserted herself into the championship match, making it a triple threat.
This booking decision has already rubbed fans the wrong way. Everyone wanted Becky to have a fair shot at the title. There is a high probability of Charlotte winning the WWE Women's Championship, going into Evolution as champion. While that sounds tempting, Becky Lynch has been on the sidelines for too long. Not giving her a win and a lengthy reign will be grossly unfair to her talents.
#4. Braun Strowman loses the MITB briefcase
Braun Strowman has been spinning his wheels ever since winning the MITB briefcase earlier this year. His program with Owens was entertaining at first but ran thin quickly. This feud hasn't helped anyone. Owens has been reduced to Braun's personal punching bag, while Strowman has been reduced to garbage comedic segments. The WWE Creative has severely let him down this year. Let us hope he doesn't lose the MITB briefcase due to shenanigans. His popularity has been organic and WWE should protect it at all costs.
But at the same time, recent booking of both the performers points likely towards a controversy in the match. Let's hope this feud is over after Summerslam.
