WWE SummerSlam 2016: Talking points

Lesnar leaves Orton in a pool of blood

#3 The women steal the show

This spot was a thing of beauty!

While Neville amazed the audience on the pre-show with his incredible skills, it was the women who stole the show. Sasha Banks and Charlotte literally tore the roof of Barclays Centre with their incredible performance. Unlike the previous encounters where they showcased their wrestling skills and wowed the audience, this time, they literally stole the show in Jeff Hardy fashion.

Even though the show was filled with several incredible performances and impactful moments, it is the memory of the top rope spots these women pulled off which would be on everyone’s mind when they walked back home. Especially, the spot where Charlotte tried to perform a Razor’s Edge from the second rope which Sasha countered with a Hurricarana left everyone speechless.

Though Sasha was unsuccessful in defending her title at the PPV, both women proved to the world that they can indeed hang in with the best WWE has to offer and even outshine them. It was easily one of the best women’s division match I have watched in my entire life.
