Just rewatched Summerslam 2011 on dvd. I must say the first with the exception of the 6-man tag is rather slow. Cee Lo Green is just awful. However the second half Bryan/Barrett Christian/Orton and Cena/Punk all make up for this and make this Summerslam a good one.

Christian/Orton ****3/4 and Punk/Cena like ****1/4 or 1/2. Really great matches.

Just realised that rating puts it as Christian's and Orton's best singles match ever, for me.

Cut the crap about people thinking Angle is good cos of his background blah blah blah, he's one of the best fucking wrestlers of all time in the ring. He could carry you to a good match.

You haven't told me why Angle is so fantastic to you. What are his qualities and best performances?

**PulseGlazer** · 08-01-2012, 12:46 PM

This is the same Angle that called his match with Hogan a ***** masterpiece. Yeah.

Angle carry me to a good match? As if I'd let him do the carrying and embarrass me out there

Angle is really athletic and intense in the ring and a lot of people go mad for that style. I understand it completely.

The main reason I enjoy watching Angle's matches is because I know his cardio is 2nd to none, the guy's just never gonna get tired. He goes and goes and goes, hense why he takes way too many dangerous risks without slowing down and setting them up. But he's not GOAT level, I don't remember Angle having any impressive/noteworthy workover segments or any moments where he sold something exceptionally. Not very good at working a crowd either. Don't hate the guy though.

Hm...this seems not to be the best thread for a giant Angle mark like myself.

I will say, however, that a lot of matches people love on here (every Undertaker match from the last 4 Manias) were all finisher fests, and I don't see THAT much criticism. I might be a bit biased because I'll defend Angle until death, but still.

The Austin match in 01 is probably the best example of Angle selling and that's like 85% the Steve Austin show.

Probably his best workover is against Shane McMahon and dude, that's Shane McMahon. Still a good match, and one of the better Angle performances, because it plays to his strengths and virtually ignores his weaknesses.
