Find out the winners and losers of the WWE PPV (PLE) as it happens here.
The only way to describeSummerslam 2022is “wild.”
WWE’s July PPV/PLE aired on Peacock and there were some incredible moments.
That’s not a joke.That happened.
The event took place at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.
However, no one saw the outcome of the match–which involved a tractor.

If you want to watch a replay of Summerslam, you’ll need the streaming servicePeacock.
Regardless of which tier you choose, there will be a few WWE-related ads throughout the show.
There are multiple ways to watchPeacock.
Mat Elfring and Chris E. Hayner are joined by a lawyer to discuss every match this week.
Below, you’ll find the results and a review for every match for Summerslam 2022.
Kickoff Show
The Kickoff Show will begin at 4 PM PT / 7 PM ET.
you could watch it for yourself below.
There were no matches on the Kickoff Show, once again.
He was at least fun.
Luckily, we’re kicking off the show with the Raw Women’s Championship.
To quote myself from Twitter, “Bianca and Becky have incredible in-ring chemistry.
It’s distracting and annoying.
You love seeing the crowd get behind a wrestler like that–especially a babyface in 2022.
And then Bayley came back… Then Dakota Kai… Then Io Sharai.
This was an epic close to the opening match.
This crowd is jacked up and ready to rock, which is awesome.
So glad this is the match kicking things off and getting a fresh and enthusiastic crowd.
I love these two and will gladly watch them wrestle as many times as WWE deems it necessary.
The camera cuts were coming at such a frenetic pace that it was hard to follow at times.
That KOD to the ringside area was a thing of beauty, though.
As was Becky pulling Bianca off the top rope and into a Manhandle Slam.
Man, the chemistry between these two is other-worldly.
What an awesome way to kick off the show.
She’s too good at being too bad.
BAYLEY WHAT IS HAPPENING.
I’m so sorry I’ve been dreaming of this moment.
And I love the idea of these three as a heel stable.
I’m sad Becky is turning face again, though.
Logan Paul vs.
The Miz
Logan Paul wins by pin.
However, I need to give credit where it is due.
Logan Paul’s standing moonsault was very impressive.
He wasn’t 100% nailing every move, but there were some very memorable moments.
Also, I’m glad Tommaso Ciampa is getting screentime, but at what a cost?
Also I love that The Miz is wearing a photo of himself beating up Logan paul around his beck.
Take that, Logan Paul’s Pokemon card.
This match wasn’t so bad.
But there were several moments for Paul that felt very try hard, if that makes sense.
His Blockbuster was on point, though.
As was Miz’s double knee facebuster to Paul from the top rope.
And Paul’s frogsplash through the announce table.
It’s a goofy rivalry they have and that’s fine, but it’s not sustainable long-term.
Also, I’m dying for them to find something better for Ciampa to do.
Rating: 7/10
Bobby Lashley (c) vs.
Theory
(United States Championship)
Bobbly Lashley wins by submission.
How hilarious would that be?
Anyway, that’s not what happened.
We got a middle-of-the-road match that ended the Lashley/Theory saga.
Not much to say about it.
Rating: 5/10
Chris: People HATE Theory.
So his push has worked like a charm.
He was utterly destroyed by Lashley.
Why would we want him to win the title later tonight?
That’s how you have someone lose before they cash in.
The man makes the title, the title doesn’t make the man.
And right now, Theory cannot make the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
Mat: Eddie Guerrero is the most-mocked wrestler in the WWE.
Any time anyone wrestles Rey Mysterio, they mock Eddie.
Here’s some food for thought.
This is a No DQ match, right?
Then why is this also being treated as a traditional tag and not a tornado tag?
Then Brood Edge showed up, but with short hair and a cool jacket.
Ok, it wasn’t Brood Edge, but he did come up through a flaming staircase.
After the spears, Rey Mysterio got the pin.
This was another middle-of-the-road match featuring a lot of people I like.
They’ve been feuding with the Mysterios and have been repeatedly made to look like chumps.
They deserve better than this.
And I still don’t understand why they are continuing to use Edge’s evil WWE music.
But he’s back tonight, so maybe he can help explain.
That’s the issue with this match and the presentation of The Judgment Day as a whole.
Under the right circumstances, a series of matches between Balor and Rey Mysterio would be incredible.
This ain’t it, though.
I will say, I did enjoy Rhea Ripley beating up Dominik, though.
And I’m wildly confused about whatever’s going on with Edge, who made his return here.
Is he…a good guy demon now?
Is this what the Brood 2022 looks like?
And I have to be honest, having Finn take the loss here is just a horrible decision.
Ultimately, we’ll get Edge vs. Finn and I’m sure it will be awesome.
But this kind of sucks.
Pat McAfee vs.
Happy Corbin
McAfee pins Corbin.
Chris and I are the target audience for this match.
We love Happy/Sad/Lethargic Corbin.
It’s a feel-good match with a beloved face and a hated heel.
McAfee looked a little sloppy, but he pulled off some pretty impressive moves.
Rating: 7.5/10
Chris: I give a 0/10 to McAfee’s new music.
Bring back the old song.
And why is there a dude in the front row wearing Joker makeup?
Did he just watch The Dark Knight this week and thinks it makes him cool?
My brother, it does not.
I have to be honest, though, this match was a blast.
I loved them trading offense, loved Corbin on commentary and shoving Michael Cole.
McAfee continues to show he has chops in the ring and Happy Corbin continues to never get old.
This was never going to be a technical marvel of a match.
It was going to be a fight and that’s exactly what we got.
Rating: 8/10
The Usos vs. Mat: Can anyone tell me who is going to be my baby tonight?
Let’s be honest–as I should be in this review.
Once again, these two put on a clinic here.
This was a roller coaster of emotion watching these teams have a go at get one over each other.
There is no team better than keeping you on the edge of you seat than The Usos.
It happened a lot here.
The match was fantastic, but the finish was surprising, to say the least.
Chris: We are all with our baby tonight, you guys.
Also, with an entrance like this, the Usos have to be winning, right?
Also, I’m usually very judgmental of the lack of a big elaborate stage at shows like this.
However, being completely honest, I love how it looks here.
Everyone walking down that aisle, surrounded by fans, looks as big time as it gets.
Matches between these two teams never get old.
Also, it doesn’t make sense but I like Jeff Jarrett as the referee.
I’m genuinely surprised the Usos retained the titles.
She has willpower and durability and great in-ring knowledge, but her offense was weak.
However, I really loved the finish here.
It’s something I’ve wanted to see for a long time.
Then after losing, Ronda beat up Liv then the ref.
Luckily, Jamie Noble came to save the ref.
We’ll get a rematch, and that’s fine.
I like that this match offered up something unique.
7.5/10
Chris: I love Liv Morgan, and I want Liv Morgan to somehow get a win here.
She’s just so likable and has a completely different energy as champion.
And the crowd loves her.
I told Mat she reminds me of the world’s little sister.
We don’t want bad things to happen to her.
We just want to champion her to the moon.
I love that they’ve made Liv look strong here.
She’s gotten out of Ronda’s moves more than once and even applied her own.
Her character has been flailing for too long.
It’s about time she gets some edge back.
This was a short one, but an entertaining bout.
And hey, more Liv as champion.
What’s not to love?
Mat: Brock Lesnar driving a tractor to the ring is my favorite Brock Lesnar moment.
Yes, I said Brock Lesnar, not Bork Lazer.
Listen, the tractor aspect of all of this is very silly.
Then the audience started chanting “This is awesome.”
I mean, it’s all very dumb but in the best way possible.
Lesnar then used the tractor to lift up the ring, and Roman Reigns rolled out.
I laughed so incredibly hard for way too long.
This was the moment I was waiting for.
This is all so silly.
I love it so much.
This is total chaos.
The only way Reigns could get his win was to pile a bunch of trash onto Lesnar.
It worked as a finish.
9.5/10
Chris: I don’t even know what’s happening anymore.
Why did Brock drive a tractor to the ring?
Also, it’s like IN the ring.
I fully expect this to end like the Halftime Heat match between The Rock and Mankind.
Someone’s getting pinned to the ground under that tractor for a 10 count.
You have to love it when a bunch of tables get completely obliterated early on.
These two dudes hit hard and really seem invested in making each other feel it in the morning.
Still, Brock was dominant in this match.
It must suck for those whose views are now obstructed by the underside of the ring.
Of course, that didn’t work out either.
And Roman and Brock continued to beat the snot out of each other with everything in sight.
And finally, the Bloodline simply buried Brock under whatever they could get their hands on.
This match was chaos in its most pure form and wildly entertaining.
And my God did they rip apart practically everything.
Not a bad way to close out SummerSlam.
