WWE Summerslam - Ranking the 5 Best Editions in the History of the Event

#3 Summerslam 1992

The biggest Summerslam event in the history.

Marquee Matches - Randy Savage(c) vs The Ultimate Warrior for WWF Title, Bret Hart(c) vs British Bulldog for Intercontinental Title

Summerslam 1992 was not just a pay per view, it was a festival. As the only edition, from the thirty that have taken place so far, to take place outside the USA, Summerslam 1992 was the biggest pay per view for the WWE since WrestleMania 3, and, with over 80,000 fans arriving in Wembley Stadium in London, still holds the record of hosting the largest non-WrestleMania event in the history of WWE.

With two gargantuan matches covering the shortcomings of all other fixtures, the edition holds the unique distinction of being the only Summerslam event where the Intercontinental Title was defended in the main event. In front of his home crowd of UK, The British Bulldog wrestled one of the best professional wrestling matches of all time against Bret Hart, and defeated him to win his only Intercontinental Title.

Adding more grace and charm to this show was Randy Savage's WWF Title defense against The Ultimate Warrior. Despite never being a great in-ring worker, Warrior always gave his best against The Macho Man, and this match, which ended in a draw, was on-par with their legendary retirement match from WrestleMania VII. Even then, the honors of stealing the show went to the Bulldog and the Hitman, who literally brought the house down in London.
