That Yokozuna bouncing in the background is one of the funniest thing I've seen on whatculture
Another fun fact. Everyone hated Jerry Lawler so much, that the refs that were supposed to get Bret off of Jerry while applying the sharpshooter, were actually pushing back Bret to apply more pressure and pain to Jerry Lawler.

You know why these SummerSlam videos are all great? Because Adam narrates them every time.
Small note: A knee can't be hyper-extended in a sharpshooter. Both knees are flexed in that move. They can be twisted (meniscus/ligament damage possible), or damage could be done to the ankles. Or you could hyper-extend the back and injury it that way.
Remember picking up SummerSlam 93 on VHS in a charity store for £2 when I was a kid. Looking back on it, probably all it was worth!
I love how the length of the sharpshooter kept changing lol 😂
This is completely unrelated to the video, but Bray Wyatt should be our collective hero for boning JoJo.

Lex Luger will forever be my counter argument to anyone who tells me Roman would have gone over great if it weren't for smarks. Sometimes the company babyface doesn't work out or takes several years to really find his footing. Wrestling isn't a science. Or even an art really. You throw everything you got at the wall and hope for the best.

Michael Martin Luger was over too. After he bodyslammed Yokozuna he got huge pops. Then the pops died down and eventually midcarders were getting louder cheers than him. That's just the way things roll sometimes.

Hahahaha and you're actually going to believe Prichard over Luger?? Sorry to break it to ya but your hero Bruce Prichard is one of the biggest liars in wrestling. I used to check his podcast but eventually I realized everything he says is complete BS and I could no longer listen to Prichard's shit. There are only TWO bigger liars than Prichard and that's Russo at number 2 and Hogan at Number 1. Just like this.... Biggest liars in wrestling history. 3. Bruce Prichard 2. Vince Russo 1. Hulk Hogan

"Something something, doesn't lay down for anybody etc"😂😂 sounds about right
I was in Buffalo traveling back to Detroit, they had a show in Niagara before summer slam and I met giant Gonzalez at the airport and got an autograph. Never seen someone that big in person. In metro detroit the ppv broadcast got cutoff before the conclusion, I didn't see the Lex lariat or celebration.
Now, here‘s what i think about the whole Lex/ Bret debacle. Why didn‘t Vince try to convince the Locker room to stay, by Lex wining the Title at Summerslam, than Bret would win the Royal Rumble by throwing over Yokozuna, so he could beat Lex at mania. I mean, jesus, 2 Manias where Bret vs Yokozuna happened, nobody needed that.
Another fact you missed: The first Pay Per View appearance of Sean Waltman. AKA the 1-2-3 Kid and X-Pac.

I also seem to recall reading because of how bad business was at the time, the SummerSlam crowd here was heavily papered and/or tickets were going as low as $5 because of coupon discounts.
Ted Dibiase went to All Japan and won the tag belts with Stan Hanson shortly after Summer Slam...
Good video. Really interesting card for the wcpw show advertised at the end
Last time I was this early my girlfriend was even more disappointed in me than usual.
they did the same thing to my aunt at the circus. She was wearing a dress and heels AT THE CIRCUS. First bucket confetti second water all over her. The family had a real good laugh that day

Wow. Lots of Fascinating Facts about Summerslam videos being posted in a short time span. Looking forward to the next one. Does anyone know the name of the background music used at 7:48, when it advertises the WCPW Pro Wrestling World Cup '17?
I feel like I need to rewatch SummerSlams
Surprised that they didn't mention that Lex didn't win the title (which was the original plan) was because the entire locker room would revolt as they thought Brett deserved the title more and no one liked Luger being heavily pushed by Vince to be the next Hogan!

"...But then Vince had her shot- for breaking Kayfabe and that was the right thing to do!" xD
Also, if you didn't know, the roster would go on strike if Lex Luger won the title, so Vince thought: "I'm going to troll!" and made Lex win via countout.
Is it just me or is the audio of the Summerslam videos very quiet at times? Great videos though!
Wasn't the locker room threatening to strike or something if luger won the belt? They felt (rightly) that Bret should have got the opportunity. The same thing happened at wrestlemania 10 too I believe.

Wow....2:54 aged really well
The first Summerslam without The Ultimate Warrior.
Last time i was this early, this joke was already too old.
“ bare bottom nonsense “. Love it!!
That confetti bucket trick is an old vaudeville gag, used still by the Harlem Globetrotters.
Yokozuna bouncing across the screen! 😂😂
My dream SummerSlam 1993 card- Lex Luger Vs Yokozuna- WWF title match Mr Perfect Vs Shawn Michaels- IC title match Steiner Brothers Vs Money Inc- Tag Title match, losers must split up as a tag team Undertaker Vs Mr Hughes- No Holds Barred match Tatanka/Sensational Sherri Vs Bam Bam Bigelow/Luna Vachon- mixed tag team match Bret Hart Vs Jerry Lawler Crush/Randy Savage Vs Two Doinks Ludvig Borga Vs Marty Jannetty Razor Ramon Vs 123 Kid
Fact 11: I was born two weeks later
Perfect! Just in time for my sandwich. Eating without a WC Top 10 video just feels so empty...
It was an odd Summer Slam, but not worse than Survivor Series 92
You know you're early when your early enough to do a 'you know you're early post.
I was at that show back in 1993 in Halifax and I do not recall any Hulk/Bret confrontation with the belt. If I do remember correctly Hulk wasn't even there.
I've met Ted DiBiase, Tatanka & Roddy Piper
You guys should do 10 Things WWE wants you to forget about The Attitude Era
Love the Hogan pointing to the ppv s he's missed bit
The Best Grumpy Cat their is, was, and ever will be
This show didn't exactly wipe out Luger's reputation for being a choker in world title bouts.
Bret was saying about the sharpshooter was a shoot. He really leaned back on it to get back at Lawler for something lol.
Hearing the Plumpster makes every day better. #gwanplumperslad
Please do Top 10 finishers which are now transitional moves
7:02 - Plumpy claims Luger lost via count out. Bad plumpy.
The spinning sharpshooter lol
At 7:05 you said Lex LOST via count out. Boy, I sure hope someone got fired over that one
As a 7 year old kid who went in person it was awesome, lol.
Summerslam 93 is my favorite Summerslam.
At 1:18. Thats not Randy Savage. Its Jay Lethal in his "black machismo" gimmick. Time to fire your photo research intern Plumpy

They are forgetting that Mr. Perfect lost the match 3 times 1990, 1991 and 1993 he is the only person at that time to lost the title or never got it back
So what we learned about this ppv is that it basically was the end for everyone
keep them coming Adam :) #f**k the negatives
Could you do a video regarding the Jon Jones VS Brock Lesnar rumor?
How come Plumpy didn't mention anything about Joe Fowler during the "Mark the End of Mean Gene". Joe didn't last long in the WWE and was let go.
The inaugural event was in 88 not 98, come on team
Lex "Lugar", eh?
Is this true. The Neville, King of the cruiserweights, is the song of the singer? Please tell me
I wonder what would've happened if Vince stuck to his guns and actually let Lex Luger win the WWF title...
nice
How do you put the Undertaker on the thumbnail and not mention the Undertaker/Mr. Hughes situation
1993-1995 you said Michaels did retain the belt but it was not in 1994 Diesel lost it back to Razor
the summer of the count out
Anyone know what match the photo from 7:16 was taken? It looks to me like 1987. Guys are using weapons and one has a helmet. The participants are: British Bulldogs (wearing red tights they wore in 87) Bam Bam Warrior Gang JYD Sika Hacksaw Demolition Butch Reed? Hercules? Someone in a NY Jets football uniform w helmet Someone w an Islanders? hockey jersey Someone w a Raiders? #9 jersey
The song at the end sounds like lesly roys I'm gone I'm going. Is this correct?
On my screen the entire video is just Plumpy talking over the thumbnail picture
