Hard to choose my highlight of Sunday. The Post live show was amazing but I did see two 65 - 70 year old ladies get off the GO train wearing suplex city shirts.
I’m sad I didn’t get to go to the live show, but it would have been quite the trek. I look forward to hearing it on Wednesday!
I had some major buffering issues during the Charlotte/Trish match and thought it was just my Internet, which was very disappointing since I thought Charlotte/Trish was the Match of the Night.
To answer the question if a wrestler has ever main evented Wrestlemania then opened (main card) Summerslam:
2011: The Miz defeats John Cena in the main event of WM27 then opens Summerslam in a six-man tag (Morrison/Kofi/Mysterio d. Truth/Miz/Del Rio)
A handful have also main evented Wrestlemania then not appeared on Summerslam, but those were mostly due to injury or guys who are part-timers to begin with (usually some combination of Triple H, Taker and HBK).
