WWE “SummerSlam” 2015 Recap

The World Wrestling Entertainment's second biggest annual event, next to WrestleMania, invaded Barclays Center on Sunday night providing a pack of fascinating moments.

It was four hours of madness involving 38 superstars, featuring 10 matches.  The most anticipated match was that of legends Brock Lesnar and Undertaker.  Here's a recap on each match:

Sheamus defeated Randy Orton on the first match.  Started the match with the classic heel move by Sheamus and countered an RKO attempt with Brogue Kicks for the win. 

The New Day defeated the Prime Time Players, the Lucha Dragons and Los Matadores in the Tag Team match.  The belts went back to Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods from the Prime Time Players.  The match ended after Titus O'Neil squased a member of Los Matadores and Kofi Kingston got a chance to kick Titus in the jaw.

Dolph Ziggler and Rusev match ended in a double count-out which was far from everyone's expectation.  This feud has been dragged out for months on end, and WWE seemed to have planned to drag it out even longer. 

Neville and Stephen Amell defeated Sardust and King Barrett.  Celebrities and wrestling tend to be quite a mess but Stephen Amell was able to pull it off in this match.  Neville didn't disappoint with pulling off a cool twist from the middle rope and pitch-perfect Red arrow for the win.  May not be the WWE's best fight but definitely one of the highlights.

Ryback defeated Big Show and The Miz and retained the Intercontinental title.  Ryback retained his title by clotheslining Big Show out of the ring. 

Roman Reign and Dean Ambrose defeated Wyatt and Luke Harper.  Reigns delivered a Superman Punch to Harper before delivering a Double Powerbomb with Ambrose.

Seth Rollins defeated John Cena to keep the World Heavyweight title and with the United States title.  It was a back and forth match until Cena heedlessly knocked out the referee while giving Rollins the Attitude Adjustment.  The show continued with Jon Stewart, former host of "The Daily Show" and a guest host as well for the SummerSlam, attacked Cena with a chair, giving Rollins the opportunity to defeat Cena.  Given his history with Rollins, one might think he would go and help Cena but he seemed to surprise everyone by doing the contrary.

Team PCB defeated Team Bella and Team Bad with Becky taking advantage of a missed dropkick and pinned Brie for the win.

Kevin Owens defeated Cesaro with Owen's signature Popup Pwerbomb.  The two men however, beat each other mercilessly using high-flying and high-risk moves to gain an edge over the other.

And finally, the Undertaker defeated Brock Lesnar via submission that some say looked dubious.  The two men exchanged signature moves throughout the match however there was a moment when the Undertaker tap out to a Kimora Lock which the referee hadn't seen.
