WWE SummerSlam 2017 opens with a video of Brooklyn, New York and a guy spray-painting a SummerSlam mural with hype for each match.
Tom Phillips welcomes us to SummerSlam 2017. John Cena is the first man out and the Brooklyn fans meet him with a massive rendition of his theme song, albeit slightly modified.
John Cena Vs. Baron Corbin
The bell rings and Cena bails, puts in JBL’s cowboy hat at ringside and describes Corbin as being “shook” after what happened last Tuesday night. Back inside, Corbin with big knees and stomps to Cena. Corbin levels Cena with his slide out/slide in clothesline.
Corbin catches Cena jumping off the ropes and plants him with a quick slam that results in a two count. Cena with quick dropkick to Corbin, but Corbin shrugs it off and tosses Cena away. Brooklyn starts a funny “WHERE’S YOUR BRIEFCASE” chant at the behest of Corbin. Cena plants Corbin with his jumping shoulder blocks and twisting powerbomb. Corbin avoids Five Knuckle Shuffle and plants Cena with a chokeslam/backbreaker combo for another two count.
