Brock lesnar r truth segment8/18/2023 This more than likely means that Marella will retain, which will be disappointing. Santino Marella will defend the United States Championship against Antonio Cesaro on the SummerSlam pre-show.At least Titus O'Neil and Darren Young got some post-AW heat by beating down Truth after the match. When he's losing to someone like R-Truth, it just doesn't have that spark. Heath Slater squash matches were entertaining when he was getting destroyed by legends of the past.The action, while sloppy at spots, wasn't all that bad either. The match wasn't extraordinarily long, but compared to typical divas matches, it was an improvement. Fans asking for longer divas matches got what they wanted, as Divas Champion Layla and Kaitlyn defeated Beth Phoenix and Eve.There is also an issue with the relevance of the fan interactivity when all three potential candidates wound up as part of the show anyway. The whole bit came across pretty weak, though, and it can't all be blamed on Piper. Roddy Piper seemed to be off his game in the Piper's Pit segment.When things like this happen, a win over the big man starts to mean less and less. Sin Cara's victory over Tensai wasn't even a fluke it was a definitive pinfall. One week, he has a brutal brawl with the World Heavyweight Champion, and the next he's jobbing to a cruiserweight in less than three minutes. WWE seems very uncertain what it wants to do with Tensai.These two men don't have issues putting together compelling action together, and neither do Punk and Cena, so why are people so up in arms about the WWE Championship match at SummerSlam? While it wound up being nothing more than a set-up for the tag match later in the night, the opening contest between Punk and Big Show wasn't bad at all.After Christian delivered Antonio Cesaro his first loss last week on Smackdown, I was worried Sandow would meet the same fate, but this was a more-than-welcome surprise. Sandow got out off it and hit his finisher. The match was fairly pedestrian until Clay's music hit, and Christian tried capitalizing on the distraction with a roll-up. Interference by Brodus Clay backfired during Damien Sandow's match with Christian, and there was much rejoicing - well, in my apartment anyway.The show is still a pretty stacked card and will surely deliver, but WWE has to rebound from some hit-and-miss build. Overall, it was a mixed bag of build for SummerSlam. There was also development for some of the under- and midcard matches scheduled for SummerSlam, and details of those advancements can be found below. In the end, Guerrero's distraction of the referee allowed Ziggler to score the pinfall over his rival. Would you like to see more between Truth and Lesnar? Let us know in the comments.There were also several instances of storytelling and advancement in this match, especially involving Jericho, Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero. It won’t be for a little while, at least, as Brock Lesnar is still stuck in Canada due to the COVID-19 pandemic and has yet to sign a new WWE contract after his deal expired. This has also been mentioned by Truth in past interviews over recent months, so it’s clear it’s something he wants to pick back up at some point. But that is one of the highest moments in my career right there.” I know that’s something we can always go back and pick up. I don’t know what it is, but there’s something there’. He said ‘Bro, we got to do something together. And after that segment was over, we’re in the back and Brock was still laughing. “The magic just went on man, it kept going on. Speaking with talkSPORT, Truth revealed that Lesnar told him backstage he wants to work him more in the future. And, by the sounds of it, Lesnar enjoyed it too.
