WWE PG Era Series 19 - No Mercy 2008

WWE Weekly Review (39) - 7.5.26 - 7.12.26

Lots of very big matches are made for Summerslam with a very shallow build. Sami Zayn was set to defend the WWE title on Raw against Cody Rhodes. Gunther attacks Cody and prevents him from competing. CM Punk answers the call and takes on Sami in the main event. Punk wins the WWE title and will face Cody Rhodes at Summerslam. LA Knight and Seth Rollins have one of the favorite segments of the week if not year. Bloodline attacks LA Knight and Royce Keyes on separate occasions. World Tag and Women's IC titles defended on Raw. On Smackdown Gunther attacks Nick Aldis. Jade injures Alex Bliss. Baron Corbin returns and attacks Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams.  SNME July 18th Summerslam August 1st & 2nd  https://x.com/jbugz8488 https://open.spotify.com/show/4DUFA0lvc882pxco0fuJ2l?si=091d03f5e383417e https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/j-bugz-wrestling-podcast/id1822428535

WWE PG Era Series 19 - No Mercy 2008

No Mercy 2008 will probably go down as my favorite PPV of 2008 outside of WM 24. Raw and Smackdown both had two fantastic main events. World title on the line in a ladder match between Chris Jericho and Shawn Michaels. Triple H defended the WWE title against Jeff Hardy. Big Show and Undertaker start their series of grudge matches. Kane and Rey Mysterio are hopefully 1 step closer to the end of theirs. The # 1 contender World title match between Batista and JBL was not the best. However, JBL cut one of the best promos of 2008 after the match. MVP voices his displeasure being on Smackdown. This led to a CM Punk, Kofi Kingston, and Legacy appearance. And so much more on this show and the 4 weeks leading into it.
