5 things which worked well for WWE during SummerSlam 2018

#3The disqualification finishes

This rivalry just took a whole new turn

Usually, a disqualification finish is probably the worst way to end any wrestling match, let alone a pay per view match. WWE took the bold decision of ending not one, but two matches at SummerSlam with a disqualification finish, one of which was a World Title match.

However, this was the best way WWE could have ended those two matches at SummerSlam without hurting the credibility of either participants.

WWE did more to the feud between AJ Styles and Samoa Joe at SummerSlam alone than they did in the 4 weeks that preceded the show. Styles' attack on Joe after he verbally assaulted his wife was exactly the kind of thing this feud needed.

Styles was more intense than he has ever been in this reign, and it also helped keep Joe strong even after that attack. Oh, and the match was bloody good, maybe the best of the night.

Even the disqualification finish in the SD Tag Title match was executed perfectly to lengthen the feud. The Bludgeon Brothers looked human for the first time since their arrival, and The New Day will be hell bent on taking revenge for those hammer shots in the future. Since this is a fresh feud, it won't be bad to see these two teams fight again, maybe with a stipulation.
