SummerSlam: 7 Best Intercontinental Title matches in history

#2 Shawn Michaels vs Razor Ramon (SummerSlam 1995)

A more than worthy sequel to an All Time Classic Mania Encounter.

Between WrestleMania X and SummerSlam 1995, both Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon were constant presences in the Intercontinental Title scene. From their lengthy title reigns to their memorable feuds with the likes of Diesel and Jeff Jarrett, the two successfully managed to carry forward the legacy, if not enhance, the idea of the championship as a workhorse's title that was established by their predecessors.

Their rivalry with each other, however, was at the center of the title scene during this period, with the two both beginning and ending this long feud in Ladder Matches at WrestleMania and SummerSlam, respectively. While their match at WrestleMania X was a groundbreaking encounter, it was the sequel 17 months later at SummerSlam in 1995 that ended up the best match between the two Hall of Famers.

Even though there were only two ladders available in the match, Michaels and Razor made full use of them as weapons. The in-ring psychology, with Razor constantly attacking Michaels' leg throughout the match and the latter getting back up again and again, also made for heightened drama. After 25 minutes of solid action, a Sweet Chin Music from the top of the ladder and Ramon's infamous fall off of it led to Michaels finally avenging his WrestleMania loss in this worthy sequel to an all-time classic encounter.
