Summerslam.
Its known lovingly by The WWE as the biggest party of the summer, but its also one of WWE's big four pay per views, which pretty much guarantees it will receive an added sense of attention. In fact, Summerslam, much like WrestleMania, Survivor Series and The Royal Rumble are often mapped out months in advance to ensure a cohesive storyline.
Whether that turns out working or not is pretty subjective and dependent on what each individual fan wants, but WWE usually puts on a blockbuster show when it comes to one of their big four. With that being said and the current line up for pay per view, one has to wonder where the dream matches are!
While WWE does include Rousey versus Bliss and Aj Styles versus Samoa Joe, there are a lot of other seemingly perfect matches that WWE is hasn't set up yet. In fact, one has to wonder if WWE will ever pull the trigger on some of these dream matches or just let the moment slip away.

In the end, here are five blockbuster matches that WWE must book in order to ensure a successful pay per view.
#5 Finn Balor versus Triple H
WWE has done mentor versus student several times over the course of the company's existence and while the idea might seem a little tired and unoriginal, it would be the perfect launching pad for Finn Balor to finally reenter the title picture. It would also be one of the most compelling storylines WWE could do and would really add an extra flavor to Summerslam.
In the end, WWE can do the predictable and do Baron Corbin versus Finn Balor a second time, but it just seems to make so much more sense for Triple H to go one on one with The Demon King. Not only would it allow Balor to work against a well established villain, it also would be a way for WWE to try to build Balor up as top guy material.
In the end, maybe The WWE Universe does want to see Balor versus Corbin again and while that does seem like a possibility, it pales in comparison to what WWE could do between Balor and Triple H. Furthermore, a win against Triple H would mean so much more to Balor's character and his continued success in the company.
#4 Baron Corbin vs Kurt Angle
Another match for the ages would be putting Baron Corbin in the ring with Kurt Angle for control of Monday Night Raw. While it already seems like the current storyline is heading into that direction, especially with Stephanie McMahon's renewed presence on Monday Night Raw, it might get scrapped in favour of Balor versus Corbin.
Not only is that match bad from the perspective that WWE already did that at Extreme Rules last month, it also seems to be more of placeholder than anything else and doesn't allow Balor or Corbin to gain any real sense of momentum after a match like this. In fact, one could argue that a win against Balor would mean nothing for Corbin, which is why a match with Angle is preferable.
#3 Charlotte Vs Asuka
Nothing would get Asuka's main roster run back on track faster then a win against Charlotte and Summerslam and that's exactly why WWE needs to do it. It also gives The WWE Universe a chance to see Charlotte versus Asuka part two, which could be one of the biggest selling points for the show if promoted right
With that being said, some might not find Asuka a worthy opponent, especially after her losing streak lately, but it would arguably be the one way to get her career back on track. It also sets Asuka and Charlotte both up to be title contenders and Charlotte would lose nothing by taking a clean loss to Asuka.
In the end, Charlotte is established enough of a superstar that she wouldn't lose any momentum in a situation like this. Not only that, it woudl also be the perfect book end to Asuka's terrible booking over the last few months and would finally make her look like a true title contender again!
#2 Undertaker vs John Cena
It might not be the most appetizing match on this list, but it would be a nice follow up to their match at WrestleMania 34, where The Undertaker pinned John Cena in a one-sided contest. Neither John Cena or The Undertaker have been seen on WWE Television since the match either, which only adds to the allure of doing the match again.
In the end, if WWE wants to keep this rivalry going into the winter months, then they obviously need Cena to win this one over the deadman. That way, WWE can have the rubber match at Hell in a Cell, Survivor Series or Royal Rumble and give one of those pay per views a boost as well.
#1 The Miz vs Daniel Bryan
Let's be honest here.
The WWE Universe does not want to wait until WrestleMania 35 to have this dream match and that's why it needs to happen at Summerslam! With that being said and WWE slowly building tension between The Miz and Daniel Bryan on Smackdown Live, one can only hope that this will be their ultimate plan.
Not only is that best for business from the standpoint of finally giving Bryan a match that can launch him back into the title picture, it also allows for WWE to finally capitalize on a match that has been brewing for quite some time. In fact, if WWE doesn't pull the trigger on this now at Summerslam, it could cost them fan interest in the product moving forward!
