Triple H

I've heard in multiple interviews that Triple H has mentioned his return at least before Summerslam, and I know it's not relavant enough to add to the article, but does anybody know if Triple H is suppose to appear on that? -- Kings bibby win 08:38, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, nobody knows for certain, and nobody will know until he actually appears, so nothing should be added. Even if it's announced he will return on a certain date, it should not be added, because something might happen to prevent it (e.g. a re-injury, travel problem etc). --Dave. 11:46, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's likely that sometime between Cyber Sunday and Summerslam, Triple H's Summerslam match will be announced, in which case we can post info about his return. But until then, we cannot post mere speculation. (Sawyer 11:47, 10 July 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Triple H is suppose to make his return on the August 13 edition of RAW.

Cyber Sunday is in November.BlueShrek 13:38, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

JR stated last night at GAB that triple h will return around summerslam

I don't think we should add "Triple H will return at SummerSlam" on the article. Even if he is going to return, that's not important to the article. MITB LS 18:55, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It an official thing pertaining to SummerSlam, it stays.-Hornetman16 ^(talk) 01:07, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is relavent to the article, as it is stated on his superstar page at WWE.com that he will return at Summerslam.--Keano62871 11:24, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is an encyclopedia, not a newswire. When he returns (if he returns, his legs are very fragile) even then it will not be notable. We can't have every PPV article saying "this was when this wrestler returned from injury" every month, especially as there is a list of injured wrestlers at the moment. A mention on HHH's article will be enough. Darrenhusted 12:18, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's encyclopedia too.--Hornetman16 ^(talk) 20:09, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you were going for "it's encyclopedic too" then I'd have to say it isn't. How can an announcement which will not be relevant in a month's time be encyclopedic. A statment like "HHH returned from injury at SummerSlam 2007." in HHH's article is encyclopedic, any mention here is not. Darrenhusted 12:31, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

At least leave it till the event. It is encyclopedic for now.--Hornetman16 ^(talk) 03:50, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's not encylopedic now, or ever. It's news which will date. This is not a newswire. Darrenhusted 21:39, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WWE has announced the return of Triple H as an event at this year's SummerSlam PPV. Therefore, Wikipedia should acknowledge that Triple H is returning at SummerSlam, just like WWE has been doing for weeks. - RYANonWIKIPEDIA — Preceding unsigned comment added by RYANonWIKIPEDIA (talk • contribs)

The article is locked for a week, so come back in 7 days. Darrenhusted 22:04, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, he is advertised to return at the next SNME tapings, which are before Summerslam.--Keano62871 11:22, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lock this Article

There is alot if Vandalism on this, I would suggest Semi-Locking it.

I requested page protection last night, but no response yet. Stormin' Foreman 16:45, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's needed badly. In the last half hour, over ten ridiculous matches have been put on the scheduled matches page.Keano62871 16:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Taglines

There are more then one taglines for Summerslam. There are "The Biggest Party of the Summer" and "The party is Over". Someone please clarify this!

Posters, Posters everywhere but not a drop to drink

Jackass at Summerslam Cancelled/ All References should be removed (the poster)

Jackass will not be at Summerslam, due to the recent death of Chris Benoit Steve-o has cancelled his appearance and Bam suffered an injury and will not be able to make the PPV. Originally it was to be Umaga vs The Jackass members/crew, but now WWE is promoting Jeff Hardy vs Umaga for Summerslam.

Due to this I believe The Poster should be removed because WWE has announced a Match for Summerslam and has put up a link without a promotional poster and starting with all PPVS after WM 23, the PPV promo poster has always been the main image/headline not the main event match. Also All Jackass references should be removed.

Unless reliable source has that written, it will NOT be removed.--Hornetman16 ^(talk) 23:57, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Hornetman. And first off bam wasnt involved to begin with. it was never stated that umaga and the jackass guys would be fighting they were just on a poster together. 3rd the link to the site isnt even on the main page yet. 4th i got a postcard promotion thing with the poster on 3 days ago with a package so i dont think theyed be sending those out if the match was cancelled. so unless you can give a reliable source dont add anything and nothing is going to be removed.--Jwein 02:34, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'll just be happy to see dirtsheets get the better of this site again. Suffice to say, you guys seriously need to start reconsidering your priorities.

And it was Knoxville walking out that caused the deal to fall apart Dr. R.K.Z

theres no proof of that or the fact that the jackass thing is cancelled. what your saying is pure speculation. and do you know what dirtsheets are just speculation to. speculation does not belong on wikipedia ok. --Jwein 17:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PWInsider.com has reported that Jackass will not be there due to Benoit. They are a credible source.--Bedford 17:38, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Until the there is a poster from wwe or an offical statement from them nothing is to be removed bedford show me a link because when i go there all i see is ads.--Jwein 17:57, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PWRshow.com-- bulletproof ^3:16 18:01, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe in the Wrestling project we only add or take away stuff bassed on information actually from the company.--Hornetman16 ^(talk) 18:46, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And we have a perfect example of why so many do not take Wikipedia seriously. WWE.com is know for blending the fake with the real, so you can not trust anything on it with a few grains of salt first. I'm guessing y'all actually believe wrestling is entirely on the up and up, and nothing is pre-determined. *rolls eyes* --Bedford 18:49, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bedford just so you know i know wrestling is not on the up and up i watch it because its entertaining. i watch as if its any other scripted series.o and bulletproof a youtube video is not proof. thats like me making a video saying that golds gonna fall from the sky theres no relability to it.--Jwein 19:02, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And we're arguing on this subject why? THE BOTTOM LINE IS: Policy say we can't add or take away things not confirmed by either US Television or THe company it's self. In this case WWE.com or the Corporate Web Site. PERIOD!!!!!--Hornetman16 ^(talk) 19:08, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anything further will end up in a LEVEL 1 SPAM WARNING.--Hornetman16 ^(talk) 19:11, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well it happened. The affiliates page just released the new poster. I reduced its size for WP:FU reasons. -- bulletproof ^3:16 18:48, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That plus TMZ.com is also reporting no Jackass at SummerSlam this year. [1]-- bulletproof ^3:16 18:57, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mind providing a direct WWEAffiliates URL to the poster? Because it's not in their image library on the site, where every other poster is. Pretty sure that's a fake poster occupying space on the page right now, considering posters from WWEAffiliates don't look like that with the rounded corners on them. Only posters from iNDEMAND have that rounded corners border on them, and the iNDEMAND page for SummerSlam doesn't show that picture.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.141.173.154 (talk • contribs)

I removed it until there is a link provided.--Jwein 03:56, 27 July 2007 (UTC) The poster will keep being removed until a link is provided.--Jwein 23:17, 27 July 2007 (UTC) Jeff is susspended for 30 days.[reply]

Poster

Should it be included in the article that there was originally a poster featuring Umaga and Jackass that was scrapped? Tywddle 20:45, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Posters for events, movies, and such change all the time. Its no different here really.-- bulletproof ^3:16 20:52, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Spanish Triple H poster the official WWE SummerSlam 2007 poster, or is it just the Spanish version of it? Virakhvar321 05:51, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The real one can be found at www.wweaffiliates.com --Keano62871 16:29, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't really help matters that WWE.com currently doesn't have a SummerSlam page up. Steveweiser 00:39, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes they do, here. Stormin' Foreman 00:47, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They just don't have a wallpaper up yet. Darrenhusted 01:10, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I found an English poster. Leor Natanov 03:47, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Poster

The poster is spanish. Shouldn't there be an English one somewhere on the internet? Socks 01 05:22, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not yet. Darrenhusted 11:29, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Former posters

Who keeps adding this info about the Rey Mysterio and Umaga poters. Are they really relevant? Mark handscombe 09:30, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It has a reference. Darrenhusted 11:28, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So? I don't think it's relevant, things get changed all the time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mark handscombe (talk • contribs)

The Rey Mysterio poster shouldn't even be mentioned. It was proven to be a completely fake poster the day it started showing up on wrestling sites. WWE never released a Rey Mysterio SummerSlam poster, the only poster released was the Jackass/Umaga one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.141.173.154 (talk • contribs)

New poster for Summerslam

Please can someone update the poster for this PPV.

It has just been released by WWE: http://cramnetwork.com/ss2.gif — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crayola0606 (talk • contribs)

It needs to go through the process of being uploaded. Darrenhusted 21:39, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Matches

As far as I'm aware of, no matches have been anounced for Summerslam unless someone can prove me wrong (poster alone doesn't count). Otherwise the matches should be removed. Tywddle 21:14, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Try wacthing Raw ECW and Smackdown or going to WWE.com

New Matches

on smakdown didn't mat hardy challenge mvp for the united states championship in a match where hardy choses the stipulation (probably ladder or tlc) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.236.108.1 (talk • contribs)

I really can't make out what you're saying. Darrenhusted 12:12, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

matt hardy tried 2 challenge mvp 4 da us title but mvp turned him down.Then hardy said he could beat him mvp in any match anytime which sort of implied maybe a ladder match happening at summerslam.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.72.233.105 (talk • contribs)

So you want to list a match that has been implied? Not gonna happen. Darrenhusted 10:09, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

matches

when was it announced that a match between rey mysterio and chavo will take place at summerslam. was it announced or is this vandialism? Matt. August 1, 2007 It's vandalism, the page is locked for a week, so I'll try to get it taken off. Darrenhusted 18:01, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's now gone. Darrenhusted 18:13, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rey vs Chavo was announced but not on TV yet, at the tuesday tapings of smackdown Vickie Guerreo made the match, Smackdown is taped on Tuesdays and aired on friday — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.184.83.5 (talk • contribs)

It's not listed here [2], so it will not be added. Darrenhusted 08:54, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
