Cena vs. Rhodes Was Overdone With False Finishes
Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena headlined SummerSlam and delivered top-level drama, but not without drawbacks. The match was packed with dramatic near-falls, including three Cross Rhodes and an Avalanche AA.
Instead of raising stakes, the false finishes misdirected the climax. While it was still a strong main event, the overproduction made the actual ending feel less impactful than it should have.
Solo Sikoa’s win over Jacob Fatu in the United States Championship match came with controversy. Fatu was handcuffed to the cage, then knocked out with the door, giving Sikoa the win without a proper pinfall.
Worse, WWE seemingly missed the moment Fatu broke free from the cuffs, making it unclear if it was intentional or a botch. The finish felt rushed and took away from what could’ve been a standout fight.
