SummerSlam (2007) was the twentieth annual SummerSlam professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).^[7] It took place on August 26 2007 at the Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey and featured talent from each of WWE's three brands: Raw, SmackDown!, and ECW.^[1]^[8] Tickets for SummerSlam went on sale December 30 and sold out in forty minutes.^[7]

The main feud, a staged rivalry between wrestlers, heading into the event from the Raw brand was between John Cena and Randy Orton. On the July 23 edition of Raw, Jonathan Coachman announced Orton as the number-one contender to the WWE Championship.^[9] Over the proceeding weeks, Orton provoked Cena by interfering and attacking him during his matches.^[10]^[11] From SmackDown!, the predominant feud was between The Great Khali (Dalip Singh Rana) and Batista (Dave Bautista, Jr.). After Khali defeated Batista and Kane (Glen Jacobs) in a Triple Threat match, a match between three wrestlers contested under standard rules,^[12] Theodore Long booked Khali to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Batista at SummerSlam.^[13] The primary feud from ECW was between John Morrison (John Hennigan) and CM Punk (Phil Brooks). By defeating Morrison in a 15 Minutes of Fame match, Punk became the number-one contender to the ECW Championship at SummerSlam.^[14]

The card, or lineup of matches, featured a total of nine contests: six standard one-on-one matches, one Triple Threat match, one impromptu beer drinking contest, and one battle royal involving twelve female wrestlers.^[4] Each of the standard one-on-one matches could have been won by one of four ways (pinfall, submission, countout, or disqualification). Likewise, each one-on-one match could have ended in either a draw, where both men are declared the winner, or a no-contest, where neither man is declared the winner. Four of WWE's nine championships were contested for; none were lost as all four were retained.^[4] A championship could have been won only via pinfall or submission, but could have been retained via pinfall, submission, countout, disqualification, a draw or no-contest.^[4]

The main match on the Raw brand was John Cena versus Randy Orton for the WWE Championship, which Cena won by pinfall after performing an FU (fireman's carry takeover).^[15] The predominant match on the SmackDown! brand was between The Great Khali and Batista for the World Heavyweight Championship, which Batista won after Khali intentionally disqualified himself for hitting Batista with a steel chair.^[16] The primary match on the ECW brand was John Morrison versus CM Punk for the ECW Championship, which Morrison won by pinning Punk while holding the ropes for extra leverage.^[17] Featured matches on the undercard included Rey Mysterio (Oscar Gutierrez) versus Chavo Guerrero (Salvadore Guerrero IV) and Triple H (Paul Levesque) versus King Booker (Booker Huffman).^[18]^[19]

Several of the existing feuds carried on after the event. Notably, CM Punk continued to face John Morrison, defeating him for the ECW Championship the following month on ECW.^[20]^[21] The day after SummerSlam, Orton, as part of the scripted events, interfered in a match between Cena and King Booker and intensified the feud by attacking Cena's father.^[22] Khali and Batista faced each other at Unforgiven, the following pay-per-view, as part of a Triple Threat match; Batista was victorious in this match and won the World Heavyweight Championship.^[23]^[24]

Background

World Wrestling Entertainment had originally planned a storyline between the cast of the Jackass TV series and Umaga (Eddie Fatu), with the conclusion in a match at SummerSlam.^[25] It was scheduled to begin at the previous pay-per-view event, The Great American Bash, but was canceled after the Jackass cast dropped out due to the negative media attention surrounding the Chris Benoit double murder and suicide.^[25]

The main staged rivalry heading into SummerSlam on the Raw brand was between John Cena and Randy Orton over the WWE Championship. At The Great American Bash, Cena defeated Bobby Lashley (Franklin Lashley) to retain the WWE Championship.^[26]^[27] The next night on Raw, one of three main television programs of WWE (along with SmackDown! and ECW), after a Handicap match involving Cena, Orton came out and executed an jumping cutter on Cena. Shortly thereafter, Executive Assistant Jonathan Coachman announced Orton as the new number-one contender to the WWE Championship.^[9] Before that, Orton claimed that he had never faced Cena in a one-on-one WWE Championship match.^[9] On the July 30 edition of Raw, Carlito (Carlos Colón, Jr.) defeated Cena in a non-title match after Orton interfered and distracted Cena.^[10] Three weeks later, on the August 18 edition of Saturday Night's Main Event, Cena faced off against Carlito in another non-title match, which Cena won.^[11] After the match, Orton came out and attacked Cena, which led to a jumping cutter from Orton through a steel chair.^[11]

The main storyline on the SmackDown! brand was between The Great Khali and Batista over the World Heavyweight Championship. On the July 6 edition of SmackDown!, Khali issued an open challenge for a match at The Great American Bash, which was accepted by Batista later that night.^[28] On SmackDown! the following week, the match between Khali and Batista was made official after a contract signing.^[29] That same night, then-World Heavyweight Champion Edge (Adam Copeland), who was scheduled to face Kane (Glen Jacobs) for the title at The Great American Bash, suffered a real injury—a left pectoral muscle tear—after Kane interrupted his Mardi Gras style celebration.^[30] On the July 20 edition of SmackDown!, Edge was forced to vacate the World Heavyweight Championship due to the severity of his injury.^[30]^[31]

I’m still the rightful champion. My pectoral muscle is hanging on by a single fiber; literally hanging from the bone. Theodore Long comes out and strips me of what I’ve worked for my entire career—from childhood until now. My mood is obviously not great right now. I’m disgusted.
I go out there and put my body through hell. I’ve broken my neck, dislocated my shoulder twice, torn my other peck, my elbows are mush, I have two protruding discs in my lower back. I even got bit by a brown recluse spider that turned into a flesh-eating disease—the list goes on. I still go out there and prove that I am the best.
Why do I still do this? Not for them. I do it for my pride. I don’t give a rat’s ass what the fans think. I never have. That’s not how I operate. I know that fans will be happy with this, and that pisses me off. I’ve come to the realization that our fans never will appreciate me. But they had to live with me as their champion, and when I return and become a four-time World Champion, they’ll have to deal with me again.
— Edge commenting on his injury.^[32]

SmackDown! General Manager Theodore Long then announced that there would be a 20-man Battle Royal later that night to determine a new World Heavyweight Champion.^[30]^[33] As part of the scripted events, Khali won the Battle Royal and became the new World Heavyweight Champion by last eliminating Kane and Batista.^[30]^[33] Khali defeated the two, as part of the storyline, and retained the title at The Great American Bash.^[12]^[34] Five days later, on SmackDown!, Batista, as part of the scripted events, interrupted Khali's celebration and challenged him to a match at SummerSlam.^[35] The next week, on the August 3 edition of SmackDown!, Long announced that Khali would defend his title against Batista at SummerSlam.^[13]

John Morrison, who was the ECW Champion heading into SummerSlam

The predominant staged rivalry from the ECW brand was between John Morrison (John Hennigan) and CM Punk (Phil Brooks) over the ECW Championship. Morrison, as part of the storyline, won the title at Vengeance: Night of Champions, the pay-per-view two months before SummerSlam, by defeating CM Punk.^[36] At the following pay-per-view, The Great American Bash, Morrison defeated Punk, as part of the scripted events, to retain the ECW Championship.^[37] On the July 31 edition of ECW, Punk defeated Tommy Dreamer (Thomas Laughlin) and Elijah Burke, as part of the scripted events, in a match between the three to earn a 15 Minutes of Fame match with Morrison.^[38]^[39] The following week, on ECW, Punk defeated Morrison, as part of the storyline, by pinfall after executing a GTS (Go To Sleep).^[14]^[40] As a result of this victory, Punk earned himself a championship match against Morrison at SummerSlam.^[14]^[40]

One of the primary preliminary matches was a standard one-on-one match between Rey Mysterio (Oscar Gutierrez) and Chavo Guerrero (Salvadore Guerrero IV). Their storyline first began in July 2006 at The Great American Bash. Guerrero, as part of the scripted events, interfered in Mysterio's World Heavyweight Championship match with King Booker (Booker Huffman) by hitting Mysterio with a steel chair.^[41] As part of the storyline, Guerrero defeated Mysterio the following month at SummerSlam, winning the match after performing a frog splash^[42] At No Mercy, the pay-per-view two months after SummerSlam 2006, Mysterio, as part of the scripted events, defeated Guerrero in a match where pinfalls could occur anywhere, pinning him after performing a crossbody off a guard rail.^[43] Two weeks later, Guerrero defeated Mysterio in an "I Quit" match as part of the storyline, forcing him to quit after hitting his left knee repeatedly with a steel chair.^[44]^[45] During the match, Mysterio suffered a real injury—an ACL and patella tendon tear in his left knee.^[44]^[45] Ten months later, on the August 3 edition of SmackDown!, a match between Mysterio and Guerrero was booked for SummerSlam.^[46]

Event

Before the event went live on pay-per-view, World Tag Team Champions Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch defeated Paul London and Brian Kendrick in a dark match.^[3]^[47]

Preliminary matches

File:Kane Entrance.jpg

Kane performing his signature entrance routine before his match against Finlay

The first match that aired was between Kane and Finlay. Kane controlled the opening minutes of the match, performing a variety of moves including a scoop slam and a big boot. After some back and forth action, Finlay was able to hit Kane with a shillelagh in the ribs. Kane kicked out of the pin attempt and executed a chokeslam, pinning him afterwards for the win.^[8]^[48]^[49]

Next was a Triple Threat match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship that involved Umaga, Carlito, and Mr. Kennedy. Kennedy attempted to form an alliance with Carlito in the beginning, but Umaga quickly turned the match in his favor. Kennedy and Carlito soon gained the upper hand after Carlito dropkicked Umaga to the outside. Shortly thereafter, Carlito turned on Kennedy and attempted to pin him with a roll-up. After a back and forth match between the three, Umaga regained control and performed a Samoan Spike on Kennedy, which led to Umaga pinning Kennedy for the win and successfully retaining the WWE Intercontinental Championship.^[8]^[49]^[50]

The third match was Rey Mysterio versus Chavo Guerrero, which was Mysterio's first match since Guerrero injured his knee in October 2006. Mysterio gained the early advantage when he was able to perform an arm drag and a plancha on Guerrero. Mysterio then performed a low dropkick to Guerrero's left knee, followed by a diving hurricanrana. Towards the end of the match, Guerrero was able to perform a Gory Bomb on Mysterio after Mysterio had missed a crossbody. Mysterio kicked out of the pin attempt and performed a 619 followed by a springboard splash for the pinfall victory.^[8]^[18]^[49]

Next was an Interpromotional Divas Battle Royal involving Beth Phoenix, Melina, Mickie James, Jillian Hall, and Maria from Raw, Michelle McCool, Torrie Wilson, Kristal Marshall, and Victoria from SmackDown!, and Kelly Kelly, Layla, and Brooke from ECW. Shortly after the match began, Phoenix threw Brooke over the top rope. Soon after, Hall eliminated Maria and Layla was thrown out by Melina. Kristal then eliminated Victoria, but was kicked out of the ring by James shortly afterward. After Phoenix and Hall eliminated Kelly, Wilson knocked Hall over the top rope. James was tossed out shortly afterwards by Melina. McCool and Wilson then worked together to eliminate Melina. The two continued their alliance, but Phoenix was able to get the upper hand, first eliminating Wilson, followed by McCool to win the match and a future WWE Women's Championship match.^[8]^[49]^[51]

Shortly after the match ended, WWE United States Champion Montel Vontavious Porter (MVP) came to the ring and challenged Matt Hardy to a beer drinking contest. Hardy declined and named a replacement, Stone Cold Steve Austin. Austin came out and mocked MVP by doing several warm-up exercises similar to those MVP does before a match. As the contest was set to start, Austin delivered a Stone Cold Stunner to MVP and left the ring.^[8]^[49]^[52]

Next on the card was John Morrison versus CM Punk for the ECW Championship. Punk gained early control when he was able to perform a scoop slam as well as a springboard dropkick; however, Morrison was able to counter a shoulder block attempt into a neckbreaker on the ring apron. After Morrison controlled the match for several minutes, Punk was able to put the match back in his favor after performing a diving crossbody followed by an enzuigiri. Morrison, however, countered a Frankensteiner attempt into a pin-cover while using the ropes for leverage. He got the win, thus retaining the ECW Championship.^[8]^[17]^[49]

Main event matches

The sixth match of the event was between the returning Triple H and King Booker, who was accompanied by Queen Sharmell. Triple H gained the early advantage as the match began; however, Booker was able to gain control after performing a low dropkick. Triple H regained control after countering Booker and performing a variety of moves, which included a clothesline in the corner and a spinebuster. Booker put the match back in his favor after reversing a clothesline attempt into a Book End, which was followed by a sidewalk slam. After Booker missed a diving somersault leg drop, Triple H was able to recover and perform a Pedigree. Triple H pinned Booker afterwards to gain the victory.^[8]^[19]^[49]

The World Heavyweight Championship match between champion The Great Khali and challenger Batista was next. Khali controlled most of the match and performed a variety of moves, which included a brain chop, a big boot, and multiple clotheslines. Batista won the match after Khali intentionally disqualified himself by hitting him with a steel chair.^[8]^[16]^[49] Since a championship cannot change hands via countout or disqualification, Khali retained the title.^[8]^[16]^[49]

Next was the main event, which saw John Cena defend the WWE Championship against Randy Orton. After back and forth action in the opening minutes, Orton gained the advantage after Cena missed a flying shoulder block attempt. Orton followed up by applying a reverse chinlock and attacking Cena's leg. After Orton controlled the match for several minutes, Cena gained the advantage and performed various maneuvers, which included a twisting belly to belly side slam and the Five Knuckle Shuffle; Orton, however, was able to counter an FU attempt into an inverted headlock backbreaker. Cena countered a running punt attempt into the STFU submission hold. Orton, however, got to the bottom rope, and performed an RKO. Cena kicked out of the pin attempt and performed an FU for the pinfall victory, thus retaining the WWE Championship.^[8]^[15]^[49]

Aftermath

During the event, John Cena provoked his feud with Randy Orton. On the August 27 edition of Raw, Cena faced King Booker in a non-title match. When Cena appeared close to winning, Randy Orton interfered and attacked him, causing Booker to lose by disqualification.^[22] After the match ended, Orton attacked Cena's father, who was sitting at ringside, and kicked him in the head.^[22] The two faced each other in a rematch at Unforgiven for the WWE Championship. Cena was disqualified in the match for continuously punching Orton.^[53] Orton won the match but not the title. Afterwards, Cena's father kicked Orton in the head,^[53] in the same way Orton had kicked his one month prior.^[22]

On the August 31 edition of SmackDown!, Rey Mysterio, Finlay, Kane, and Batista participated in a four-man Championship Competition tournament. Mysterio defeated Batista and Finlay and became the number-one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship at Unforgiven.^[54] On the September 7 edition of SmackDown!, Mysterio defeated Chavo Guerrero in an "I Quit" match. After the match, The Great Khali attacked Mysterio until Batista came out and executed a spear on Khali. Batista was then included in the one-on-one title match at Unforgiven, making it a Triple Threat match.^[55] At the event, Batista won the championship for a third time.^[23]^[24]

The feud between Matt Hardy and Montel Vontavious Porter (MVP) continued when they were forced to team up against Deuce 'n Domino on the August 31 edition of SmackDown!. They won the match and the WWE Tag Team Championship.^[56] The following month at Unforgiven, MVP and Hardy defeated Deuce 'n Domino to retain the WWE Tag Team Championship.^[57] That October, at No Mercy, Hardy defeated MVP in a pizza-eating contest.^[58]^[59] On the November 16 edition of SmackDown!, MVP and Hardy lost the WWE Tag Team Championship to the team of The Miz and John Morrison.^[60]

Umaga lost the WWE Intercontinental Championship to Jeff Hardy on the September 3 edition of Raw.^[61] Afterwards, Umaga started a feud with Triple H and faced off against him in a Street Fight two months later at Cyber Sunday.^[62] At Unforgiven, Candice Michelle defeated Beth Phoenix to retain the WWE Women's Championship.^[63] Phoenix, however, later defeated Candice at No Mercy to win the title.^[64] On the September 4 edition of ECW, CM Punk defeated John Morrison to win the ECW Championship.^[20]^[21] At Cyber Sunday, Punk retained the title by defeating The Miz.^[65] The following month, at Survivor Series, Punk defeated Morrison and The Miz in a Triple Threat match to retain the ECW Championship.^[66]^[67]
